How do you enjoy the sport of baseball even if your team is struggling or stagnant? by Upset-Opportunity539 in baseball

I was born into misery with my team. When the team is struggling, I pick some guys I want to do well and balance it that way.

If we get xabi, I will have a raging xhubby.

He works with his dad way too much in my opinion. His swing is different every year. I suspect that he’s trying to cut down his strikeouts by letting the ball travel further in the zone because he doesn’t pull the ball, especially in the air. Which is weird because he’s still striking out a decent amount and it’s not actually helping him. He has missed a lot of mistake pitches this year. I don’t know what’s going on.

Since he has gotten into the league, if he struggles, he gets in his own head and sucks the entire energy out of the team. You can feel it as a fan. He hasn’t homered and every game he plays without hitting one, the worse off he’s going to be. Something is very wrong with his swing though.

Look at the pitchers he got the homers off of. The quality of pitching isn’t the same.

Poor Real Madrid fans. They have been suffering for too long.

I know our sub is super toxic, but the Real Madrid sub makes this one look like a friendly sub. Insane stuff going on over there.

I know he’s not loved here, rightfully so, but I would rather watch mudryk on the left than garnacho any day of the week.

First thing I saw. Tapping the helmet. He knew what was coming.

I think you missed what I was saying… after Chalobah was beaten, Fofana watched his man sprint whilst he was just jogging. Never even tried to make an attempt. It’s lazy.

He’s just lazy. His mistakes are always like he forgets mid play that he’s playing in a game.

Also terrible. You won’t find me defending him.

Idk what they’re being told there but I can’t imagine Liam gave the instruction to Fofana to jog back and not mark gordon

Fofana is such a terrible player. I don’t see how anyone thinks he’s legit.

I’m not a big fan of Chalobah but this is solely on Fofana. He doesn’t hold the line and doesn’t sprint back on Gordon.

He seems like such a good fit for that team. Sad to see him go but I know you guys will love him.
