At this point, you just have to laugh... Eschewing the batting order that scored well, we go again with ill-suited Oz at 1.. the .200 hitting Soler at 2, and once again start the famous Leon...

That is one effed up lineup, but I guess we should just be grateful that Snitwit doesn't have Kevan batting cleanup.

I guess Vogt can't hit lefty pitching, I haven't bothered to look, but neither can Kevan.
d'Arnaud is 2-3 games into rehab so I suppose he'll be ready in a week or two so we'll just ride it out till then.
Relying on Kevan for a two month stretch like this was pretty stupid.
Don't we have a bunch of lefties going against us this week?
We're going to to get a lot of facking Kevan now. Oh the joy.

Vogt is batting .333 with an .856 OPS against lefties in 40 at bats this season.
Kevan is batting .148 with a .488 OPS against lefties in 27 at bats this season.

I have been more of a Snitker defender than a basher for the most part but this thing with the Famous Leon has gone too far on the side of stupidity.
We have a servicable, adequate MLB catcher on this roster in Vogt, why can't we play him like a number one catcher till D Arnaud is ready to come back
Maybe they like Leon's game behind the plate and maybe he is a good handler of pitchers, only those on the inside know. But Kevan Smith has been an automatic out for this season. I do not care if he was okay with other teams, having him in the lineup is asking for giving away outs as far as what is going on now.
What does K Smith have on the powers that be with the powers that be?
This is not the only move that I have had my head spinning this yr.

Playing Leon like this is really stupid when you could have brought up Jackson and possibly gotten a touch more in a trade or maybe even decide against trading him. This whole season, both AA and Sarge, is just beyond reason.

David O'Brien @dobrienatl Travis d'Arnaud is scheduled to catch 7 innings tonight with Gwinnett as his rehab assignment continues.

Mark Bowman @mlbbowman The only NL East teams with a positive run differential are the Braves and last-place Marlins, a pair of clubs that join the Rangers as the only MLB teams to not have a winning record at any point this year. Insanity is trying to make sense of this division.

Somebody on Facebook posted that Fried's ERA with Kevaaan catching is like 2 something and with Voight it's over 7...but that's got to be a pretty small sample size, Voight hasn't been with the club that long. Might have had something to do with who they were playing as well. Might just be pitcher preference...who knows.
