So Rob Thomson won a pennant in his first interim year. Then proceeded to win 90+ games three years in a row and was fired today.
Yet….Carlos Mendoza is still employed!??
Nobody likes to lose but I saw some “ green shoots tonight “. On offense, Lindor had two hits including a home run. Bichette got a double hitting it to left field as opposed to recently being right field prone. Benge got a solid hit. Soto started his running progression today. Semien hit a shot that might have been a home run on a warmer night. Finally, Nolan McLean pitched an outstanding game going 7 innings. Hang in there fans, we will turn this around !

Here’s the good news:
McLean looks like a true bonafide ace.
Here’s the bad news:
Brett Baty, Mark Vientos, Marcus Semien, Jorge Polanco are all brutally bad and Benge has looked overmatched all year.
