Ender needs to sit...on a plane to another team. I’m over him completely. I’ve always defended him because he’s just always been “there” and could glove it...But fck this...Trade that MFer with something for a bullpen arm. I’m really tired of looking at him. He disgusts me.

Not to beat a dead horse again but the bullpens inability to hold the other team to no runs rears it makes head again....

The inability to throw strikes is mind boggling. It really does feel like there are 5-6 games we should have won

No dead horse beaten. Unfortunately the entire fan base with the exception of the 5 of us in this thread right now wont know how sh*tty the blowpen was again tonight.

I won’t take that too seriously for another month. However, if that proves to be the case, he got to go.

Yeah. The sample size is incredibly small (like a week worth of ABs for a hitter) but UZR, DRS, and Statcast's Outs Above Average all say the same thing so far. He's been average with the glove and DRS and UZR show him -1 with his arm. I think the team will be looking for a corner OF at the deadline and move Acuna to center.

To be fair the pen gave up 1 run and the Braves scored 2 runs in total. Offense is the reason we lost tonight.

But it’s a constant theme. That was a pretty big insurance run there man. Ender is bunting in the 9th if Parsons doesn’t walk 2 MFers.

It is. The Braves not scoring in multiple opportunities earlier in the game was the bigger issue.

Seems like another well thought out rational take from the resident genius.

Also concerning is that Ender is posting negative defensive numbers all around in center so far.

FG defensive numbers lag by a week or more, so the sample size is even smaller. However, defense does decline at a younger age than offense.

I find it hard to believe Ender went from elite to below average unless there is some underlying health issue impacting his entire game.
