He doesn't seem like he has shown any real improvement from last year. and seems to get mentally down on himself when anything goes not according to plan, similar to what Salazar had a few years back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if people think the virus is overblown, I still 100% understand the teammates perspective. Plesac and Clevinger flat out lied to their teammates. I’d be more lenient on Plesac, but Clevinger just doesn’t get what it means to be a pro and he won’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard that he posted a quote from a country song on some social media: "I know the rules but the rules don't know me." Keep him around long enough to restore his trade value - which is lower than whale crap right now - and ditch him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He lied to the team and his teammates AND exposed them to extra risk when he knows one of his teammates is immuno-compromised! Like, that's just an absolute murderer to team chemistry and cohesion.

candyman93 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) What a nightmare scenario for this Tigers pitcher. 0 outs and walked our 8th and 9th hitter. Hernandez gets on base after a bunt. So you’ve got bases loaded, 0 outs and Jose Ramirez at bat.

bruceb Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Posted this in the wrong thread: Wonder if Francola notices that Lindor and Santana are batting .214 and .180, respectively, and even worse with RISP. Ya, those would be my choices for the 3 and 4 holes. And also wonder what leads him to believe that Hand still should be the closer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
