They kept Roark in just long enough to give up a gopher ball.

Johnny just called "Syd", Tanner.

The Mendoza Line is an expression in baseball in the United States, deriving from the name of shortstop Mario Mendoza, whose mediocre batting average is taken to define the threshold of incompetent hitting. The cutoff point is most often said to be .200[1] (although Mendoza's career average was .215)

E6 has to get on a real hot streak to best that mark this year...

If he goes 0 for his next 16, he'll be below the Mendoza line. Rizzo says he is our shortstop, he'll certainly get a chance...

That's it. Desmond needs to have his ass sat down.

There he goes, playing for two teams in the same game!

However, Mendoza has a WS ring.

Desmond is awful, everywhere.

Rizzo keeps supporting Ian. Is he willing to do so at the expense of winning the division and making the playoffs for a player that is a free agent after the season?? It makes no sense.

Way to get in front of it E6

Pen is getting worked. Fister will need to go at least 7.

Desmond has completely fallen off the cliff. Why is no one standing up for him by saying he must be "hurt" like other players?

They are going to light his soft tossing junk up. But yeah no reason to burn the bullpen vs Kershaw. Game is unwinnable any way.

At some point Desmonds "production" has to become unacceptable for a team with WS hopes. Forget benching him we need to DFA him

Mr Clean · « **Reply #365 on:** July 18, 2015, 02:28:26 pm »

Desmond has 2 errors so far. He was lucky Puig didn't hustle.

Dude, he's saying what he should say. I believe he'll be given another week after Rendon comes back and after that he will sit. They won't continue to put up with this. That's just supportive coach speak

varoadking · « **Reply #367 on:** July 18, 2015, 02:29:42 pm »

Forget the poor fans, he needs to sit for the sake of his teammates...

Screw waiting for Rendon...play Uggla...

I see what you did there.

sportsfan882 · « **Reply #369 on:** July 18, 2015, 02:30:27 pm »

wow Uggla chasing first pitch garbage.

This team is so bad.

varoadking · « **Reply #372 on:** July 18, 2015, 02:31:39 pm »

Great hustle, Yunel...the anti-E6...

Sun monster double!

Rare day for Escobar where he has three extra base hits.
