On the road 2017: .236/.266/.373

No reason for him to be in there tonight.
Exactly what I was thinking but I had no idea people were so sensitive about Drury. Lol I will not rip him again!

Let’s go guys! Pretty much worst start imaginable and we’re only down 3.

I think it'a a given that Owings will be our 2B next season. He is frantically working to return now.

It's never a good idea to concede Game 1. Especially in this way. No way Walker should have started and Iannetta should be catching. I'd even think about putting Lamb at the bottom of the order since he's been hot lately.
Trust me, I think it’s dumb. Torey made 3 really bad lineup decisions tonight (no Lamb, no Ianetta, and Walker). It just feels like we’re not putting our best talent out there, and that’s considering our two top starters are unavailable.

Why not Corbin?

I definitely would have started Corbin. Godley should have come in after if Corbin couldn't get it done. Starting Walker basically told me we aren't trying to win this game, which is madness.

I’m going full silver lining here. Couple of things:

This may have been the best thing that could have ever happened to Godly. I mean he got to come in with basically no pressure and he’s killing it out there

C'mon Bert, it's not that. It's throwing out Drury's stats like they are crap and not even knowing they are better than Barefoot's. And then everyone jumps on too. Drury bashing does not make up for the rest of the team tonight. At least get the facts straight. Everyone can hate Drury all they want, but he has not been our problem. Enough about him, let's just win this game. I think he will be traded with Chris coming back. Maybe he can find a home at his natural 3rd base position and with every day bats maybe he will be decent. Maybe.

Tired of TL's pitcher excuse for starting a cold Mathis


And then leaving him in

Yeah, terrible rationale. Hasn't Iannetta caught most of Walker's good outings? Regardless, Iannetta has the superior bat vs. Kershaw. Mathis couldn't even get a decent bunt down on Wednesday. Got very lucky on that play.

Okay another shutdown inning, time to get some runs. 3-4 would be nice to make Kershaw nervous and quiet the stands.

I know we're all mad about the way the game started, but as of right now, we're only down three, and anything can happen. Gotta get this Kershaw guy out of here though!

I have been mentioning for awhile that Drury is playing out of position at 2B. But there is no excuse for him not picking up all season where he should be on every possible play. That's why D-backs fans are against him. Justifiably so. And he just hit into a DP.
