Bichette destroyed his knee lmao thats like a 3 month injury

no surgery needed at all. no fracture. when it happened analysts were saying a week or two.

Bro he dislocated his knee probably he wouldve been on 60 day IL if he did that in May lol

Expecting a 23 HR guy to perform like a superstar is obviously not realistic. We will never see Yankees Vlad again

So we can have 2 or 3 more Jeff Hoffman’s?

The key is developing arms

Let's give the Mariners pitching staff some credit. They are that good.

You’re changing the topic.

I don’t care that he threw the ball. It was a weak ground ball induced by the pitcher. You don’t use that plate appearance to gauge your starter’s performance and so decide to bring in Billy Koch.

97 MPH off the bat, wasn’t good today and has been hit by those same guys before

Eddings gifted them a run by not calling Strike 3 on Arozarena. So call it 2 runs allowed on 1 swing. And nothing since the 1st inning. Pulled in the 4th inning. With no bullpen behind him.

Your strategy has obviously not been working.

Schneider had a chance to watch what the Tigers did with Skubal and his own game 1 blunder. he has enough information. He doesn’t learn. Fire Schneider.

I dont think anyone wanted him facing Julio again

The analytics based move would have been to pull him even before the inning started. I had no big issue with him staying in but it really wasn’t much of a question with Julio up and two on

Problem is Varland isn’t a relief ace and theyve been treating him like one

Varland when he isnt pumping 100+ consistently just isnt all that good.

The sad part is, they did develop arms this season. They are just behind in the depth chart to inferior pitchers who the front office nerds want Schneider to use instead (Varland and Little). Fisher and Fluharty are objectively better than those two based on recent performance.

Varsho trying to prevent doubles, gives up a triple.

3 brutal routes by Varsho today.

Trey wasn’t good today no matter how you want to sugarcoat it with excuses

Schneider did nothing that nobody else wouldn’t have in that spot today and Trey isn’t Tarik Skubal

Lateral Quicks · Post #360 » by **Lateral Quicks** » Mon Oct 13, 2025 10:58 pm

What the hell is going on?

Does John Schneider pull Trey early, if he's in a similar situation as Gausman?
