I believe he was totally embarrassed on the 17up he had just had in center. It was bad..
They showed all of the screw ups he had out there, previosly.
Send his -€€ to Double A and he’ll either figure out how to play the outfield or he won’t
JM needs to play every day in C or wherever they need him.
There was NO Sun, late this afternoon, His square peg is not a good fit for round hole that they are trying to put him in. In the outfield.
Why are they trying to make Cruz play CF instead of left or right? I guess because the pirates just don’t give a 17 but still doesn’t make sense
Just in case anybody cares, Cruz finished the game 3 for 4 with 2 HRs, 3 RBIs and 3 runs scored. Jake was 1-4. Pirates won 8-3.
This reads like a synopsis of our live game threads.
Because in baseball, the skipper is beholden to the player contracts that the GM/team presidents got signed.
And Cruz has crazy potential. He’s worth the risk. Lou Brock was once considered the worst outfielder in baseball. Of course that may have been the disguise he used to get away from Chicago.
