All we are debating is whether you want Gutiérrez or Oliveres getting PT. I think that’s an obvious answer, but in the end, it’s the question.

Apparently some broke dicks get longer time to prove they're broke dicks.

Nicky Lopez seems to be getting serious at bats to prove he can't hit.

Lmao, smart!

Let's bring up the almost 36 year old who was dropped by AZ because of a 9.76 ERA this year and has had a negative War since 2018. He will pair nicely with Wade.

You are full of completely shitty takes all the time.

O'Hearn has proven over the course of several years that he can't hit major league pitching. Olivares has been yanked up and down, given a spot start here and there, and been given no realistic shot to prove anything. Not the same thing at all.

O'Hearn is the classic AAAA player. McBroom the same.

What makes you say that? McBroom has only had 175 plate appearances in his career, and he's done fine (.265/.320/.426).

Has he stuck a full season with the Royals? Nope. Why do you think that is?

Well, the answer to your first question is yes. He was on the team the whole season last year. He platooned with O'Hearn. I'm assuming you thought the answer to the first question was no, so I'm not really sure how to answer your second question.

You're counting a 60 game Covid season? Semantics... Semantics...

If he's that good, why is he not here to sub for Benny?

I'm not saying he's the answer. I'm just saying he hasn't had enough playing opportunity to be labeled a AAAA player like O'Hearn.

LMAO

Yeah. I'm intrigued. Going to my first game of the season today and I wasn't really looking forward to watching Kowar turn in a performance I can see a couple times a week from my 9 year old's little league team. Hopefully, this works out better

So, of the 8 K's last night, Soler (.187) and Dozier (.148) had 2 apiece. :shake:

Although, Soler did have a hit. He also accounted for 5 LOB, and Dozier 2 LOB. :rolleyes:

I really think it would do Dozier some good to send him down for a couple weeks -if he has options. That worked for Moose when he was going through this. Apparently our hitting coach and Dozier just aren't on the same page. We can't have three or four guys in the lineup hitting .220 or worse, and it happens all the time here. Soler should be embarrassed. Mondi comes in and hits a monster shot his first night back. Soler's K rate this season has been astronomical, especially if he's hitting fifth or sixth in the lineup. Lopez had a very good game last night. Like to see him be able to hit around .250 or .260. If he can do that consistently, he'll stick at second. Very satisfying win last night in front of a big crowd. Its good not to crap the bed in front of a big crowd.
