Seager is not a good high leverage/clutch hitter. His damage is usually done when it doesn't affect the outcome.

New nickname for Taylor = 0-2
CT3 is a distant memory
Just a really bad baseball player. You have 3 guys in Barnes, Taylor and Kike who are all Mendoza hitters. That’s 1/3 of your lineup. It’s obvious that the Dodgers are carried by a certain guys and when they aren’t hitting, these guys can’t compensate.

What a POS Barnes is. AF & Roberts are blind fuckers if they think he's better than Smith.

They don’t. They just don’t want to start the clock on Smith while they keep paying for a stiff like Barnes. Cody would have faced the same thing if AGon had not been hurt. They favor the vets.

Only way Smith gets the nod is if Barnes suffers a season ending injury.

Fuck the Mendoza Triplets who prevent runs from scoring when they're back to back to back in the lineup followed by a slumping Joc. The only runs come via the HR lately like the last 2 years.

The Giants taking it to SD. They wisely have been dumping as many vets as possible & are playing hungry kids.

Barnes starting to chop wood again. Hasn't got a hit since coming back. Last hit on 5/24

I hear both AF & Roberts justify/excuse Barnes saying that catcher defense is more important than hitting. So, any offense is gravy.

Doesn’t seem to hold water because Smith is a better defensive catcher and seems to have built a repoire quickly with the staff. There is nothing that Barnes does better than Smith. He is just older.

Preaching to the choir. Both of them are so full of shit most of the time.
Horrible throw from Kike to Caleb. HORRIBLE.

Memo to FO: Garlick isn't needed as a never used bench OF. An IF callup is needed. Watching Kike play 1B while not providing offense isn't ideal.

Bases loaded 1 out for the Mendoza Bros., Taylor & Kike who do what they do best...NOTHING.
