Just offensively, eh Bafoone?
Boone is very re-active. He only responds when the going gets tough and media bashes him.
Only 100 days late.
I hope Volpe appreciates the amount of confidence this management has in him .. cuz the fan base sure doesn’t and it has been more right about him than them.
Obviously, yeah.
Dude, tough stretch?!
Boone look at his stats last 30 games for crying out loud..
.146/.183/262 // 15 hits in 103 ABs, 34 SO & 5 BB
It’s the right time to make a change, give a guy a chance to get some reps in and hopefully get hot.
Sure, whatever you need to sell it
What’s the o/u volpe has an at bat in tonight’s game?
Cabbs deserves to play more than he does.
“Tough stretch” I don’t even know what it is I want to hear him say but it’s been 3 years and to call it a tough stretch is just annoying
They won’t bury him publicly. Not gonna happen. They see it. They know he’s sucked. They have to know that before Caballero & Rosario got here, they had no viable backup. They just were not going to say it. So just win fucking games. Put the best team out there. Figure out the damn bullpen.
Translation – Daddy Cashman decided to make a change and send me the lineup. Since when did being 3rd percentile in Batting Run value and 11th percentile in Fielding Run value in 556 plate appearances qualify as a “tough stretch”
Boone reminds me so much of Mark Proksch right here 😂
Let’s win the next 2
Tough offensively and defensively.
By stretch he means since he left double A.
He should’ve said Volpe is overrated
Nobody talking about his t-shirt? Who is that on there?
Duh
In case somebody didn’t watch Volpe: tough stretch = worst hitter in baseball.
“tough stretch” aka the entire season
I like Volp. Get the “E” out!
Defensively, too. But yes, offensively as well
At this point it’s fair to guess if Boone and volpe are romantically involved.
I need the shirt he’s wearing
I was under the impression that this was another “elite” run from a player who has had nothing but “elite” runs in his career
