It doesn't excuse the lousy approaches at the plate.

It doesn't excuse what George Springer, you know, what's happening with George Springer right now or what George Springer is right now.

It doesn't excuse Vladdy not getting any extra base hits.

You know, I mean, injuries are a factor here.

But, you know...

In any other sport, you'd say this team needs a shakeup.

In any other sport, you'd say somebody needs something drastic needs to be done to this team if you want to have a chance of having success this year.

I'm not buying it.

I know they're, what, two games out of the wild card.

I get all that.

But the problem is this is baseball, and generally the drastic stuff doesn't materialize.

Right, Kevin?

It's not like you can go out and trade for get a new point guard in here and shake things up or anything like that.

And here's the thing.

I mean, Alejandro Kirk's going to come back and make it better, but he alone is not going to address what's wrong with this team.

Absolutely.

I mean, he's just not.

He's one guy, and it's not going to change what Vladdy is right now.

It's not going to change what George Springer is.

Holy moly.
