Puig Fail Thread

[melanimal_old]

you're right, Mattingly is denying us the privilege of watching him strike out haplessly every other at-bat instead.

Didnt he hit a triple last night? Andre Ethier is hot garbage.

Didn't he strike out in 7 straight at-bats before that?




Weren't the Tigers and Nationals the GOAT squads this year according to you?







Wasn't Hunter Pence irrelevant according to you?









How's that all working out?

[mk8]

doesnt mean its the correct move at all...

It's ridiculous.

[Big_Spaz]

Sitting Puig is a mistake IMO. Regardless of what he HAS been hitting, the possibility of what he could be hitting is much greater.

Hunter Pence couldnt hold Puigs jock strap. Ill eat my words. Puig adjusted to the big leagues. Hes already a much more advanced hitter than Hunter Pence ever was and ever will be.

Schweezy, Hunter Pence's last post season was one of the worst in the history of baseball. He had a sub .100 obp, but the media and the tools in SF loved those rah rah pregame speeches. Its the last im going to talk about it because youre not a re tard and I know youre trying to troll me.

So he's worshipped in San Fran despite such terrible production? If that doesn't scream "RELEVANT" then I don't know what does.

Yeah man that .780 post-ASB OPS really showed how he's adjusted to the big leauges.

sells a lot of jerseys I suppose

[JBhaverhill]

Right move or not, the mere fact that his cringeworthy (lulzworthy) plate appearances and potato base-running and fielding decisions have led Mattingly anywhere close to having make this decision proves how overrated he is, and he's nowhere near earning that 'superstar' moniker that everyone wants to give him.

Where you getting that stat?

[melanimal_old]

just realized im arguing with 2 SF fans trashing a Dodger.

you sure love those small sample sizes. Considering Hunter Pences entire seasons OPS was .777 I have no idea why youre talking about it.

[melanimal_old]

Pence's career post season slash line. Ill just leave this here before you trash another player

.220/.255/.290 = .545


5 years 90 million

Its hilarious how upset you are about Mattingly's coaching decision.

Also, are you going to address that made up stat you posted above about Pence's OBP?

uh....IDGAF about hunter pence or the giants. But your adjustment comment was way off. Strong 150 point drop in OPS by your boy after the ASB.

It was the right decision to sit Puig.

I'd respond to those saying it wasn't, but I got work so w.e.

[awwchit]

Didnt he hit a triple last night? Andre Ethier is hot garbage.

Ethier is more than capable of coming through.

Evidence: He hit a huge double against Rosenthal in game 1. Didn't work out but that was clutch as phuck

Glad Dodger fans understand.

Last thing you need is Puig going full retard and getting thrown on the base path or skipping the cutoff man to try and make a hero throw. You saw how hero ball worked out for the Giants yesterday. That sh*t don't cut it in the playoffs.

That being said, I hope Ethier goes 0-4 and LA crumbles into a burning pile of rat feces.

Yeah some Dodger fans ride on Puig cock hard and fail to see his errors.

8 strikeouts is just unacceptable. We have no time to wait for him to break out of it. He hasn't made adjustments. We have no time. So you sit down son.

Plain and simple. I surprisingly agree with Mattingly

[awwchit]

so clutch

[melanimal_old]

its tough to make errors when you cant get to balls in centerfield

Yup, in a short series you can't wait for your 162 game sample size stats to bear out. If a player is trending downwards into a terrible slump you can't count on him bucking that trend in a do or die game. Dat gambler's fallacy.

[ZidaneValor]

Honestly, this reeks of making a move, just to make a move. Like Mattingly felt he had to do SOMETHING, regardless if it made sense or not, so people wouldn't trash him for "not doing something", and Puig is an easy target.

a large sample of something trending down......... that would be Andre Ethier
