And for the record, I'm actually fine with Meyers playing CF if Chas can play LF regularly. Like I said before, the problem with them is they both bat from the right side. A lack of a platoon further clogs up the roster, especially one that needs more lefties. Meyers will be hurt again soon anyways. He's never played more than 120 games in a season at any level. |

Out number two was at first base. Let the guy score. WGAS about the third run? Would you agree that the play was routine to either base? Routine is affected by nerves. The throw to first was easy as pie. The goal is to make sure you get the easiest out if it results in maintaining the lead. |

I never said Pressly was without fault... I never said Meyers made an error. I just said that Meyers' flop contributed to the inning being bad. His offense was more the problem...as it generally is. |

Pressly basically pitched 1.2 innings and gave up two hits. Certainly nothing to praise, but also not as bad as you're making it sound. Two doubles essentially and five infield groundballs. Let's calm down a little. |

It’s like Corch sitting there whining about Altuve’s defense in the postseason and ignoring Lance giving up homers. |

This is what should have happened: Out Double Out Out The second hit wouldn't have even come to the plate. |

All sympathy went out the window with that throw home. I’m not gonna gripe about the defense failing him when he failed himself. |

Nah, I wasn’t minimizing a shit outing by Pressly and criticizing Meyers just because my man-crush was on the bench. What you’re claiming me to do was exactly what you were doing. Pressly made a bad throw to the plate. It was that and Bregman's error that led to the runs. None of them were earned. Meyers just didn't help what was already a bad situation. It certainly wasn't a good outing by Pressly, but none of those runs scored if him and Bregman made their routine plays. Meyers sucking was because Meyers is mediocre at best. It has nothing to do with Chas. If you're ready to resign as McMullet's PR agent, I can assign you to the same position of Chas. |

Chas' performance, despite being jerked around by Dusty for three seasons, should speak for itself. |

Meyers has actually been good though. No need to lump him in with Julks. Dusty keeps treating him like he's a regular when he's clearly a 4th OF at best. Chas is a better hitter than either of them is my point. It's really very close as-is though, and they've protected Chas from a lot of the tough righties. If you give them both equal playing time and matchups, Meyers likely comes out on top. I think it's dumb that they're not both in the lineup 90% of the time and Dusty insists on letting Julks steal PT from better players. |
