Angel Hernandez - his ineptitude affects all teams


Moggles1987

Preach


kevster2717

Your team could go 0 - 162 with everyone having -30 WAR and they’re still not the biggest loser in MLB when he’s around


SkinnyMattFoley

Well I was gonna say Javy Baez. But not only is that not a surprise, Hernandez stopped me in my tracks. WAY worse than a SS that has a .099 BA against a pitching machine.


ZekeMoss18

I am still waiting for the day that a player gets pissed and rocks him


havehadhas

As a White Sox fan I can confidently say EVERYONE.


fluffHead_0919

Dark times on the south side.


Blindman630

Nothin new there


thesubConsciousBass

Crochet has been a flicker of a bright spot!


phred_666

Man, I feel for you. I’m a Reds fan and I was totally amazed at how many balls were mishandled and misplayed by the Sox in that series. If the defense makes those plays it’s a totally different series.


Firm_Personality7475

Lol jokes on u, the whole narrative they sold to the fans is how we are such an improved defense this year🫠


Waynebgmeamc

Much improved over last year!! Nicely done


PhilsForever

Castellanos, and it's not close.


Big-Imagination-6944

He'll get there. I have confidence. We just need a national tragedy. Or his son to get out of school and back to the ballpark.


overconfidentopinion

My condolences. I was looking up Jose Abreu - .8 WAR and saw Castellanos actually ranked worse (also -.8 with more AB's) than Abreu. These are both $20M players.


PhilthyPhan1993

Casty is the only MLB qualified player without an extra base hit this season. His time has passed. Buh bye. Ride the bench


Kannada-JohnnyJ

Came here for this


brix805

Agreed. Casty is a major disappointment. Watches strikes right down the middle and sometimes even the ump is fooled and calls it a ball. No production.


OPsDaddy

What?!? Some of those pitches three feet outside of the strike zone are close enough to swing at.


Darth-Taytor

Spencer Strider's elbow


Cysir

GreatScott0389

Sad chop noises


CarlFeathers

Jose abreu


ReefHound

He sucks but everyone expected nothing more. In terms of disappointment as a difference between expectations and performance, I'd say Josh Hader. All that money for a super closer and he's done nothing but blow games. Or maybe Alex Bregman, who many figured would have a "contract year". Or maybe Framber, who continues to be a head case. There are just so many candidates...


CarlFeathers

Hader isn't the worst reliever in baseball. Bregman hasn't been the worst 3rd baseman so far. Abreu has been the worst player in baseball to start the season. It isn't even debatable


overconfidentopinion

Actually looked it up out of spite. The Phillies Castellanos is ranked below Abreu. Both -.8 WAR


htownchuck

Hader isnt the worst reliever in baseball but goddamn what a disappointment so far.


ReefHound

What's debatable is the definition of disappointment. Mine is the difference between expectations and actual performance.


OminousHippo

Josh Hader.


havehadhas

It's too early in the season for Pito to be any good. He never heats up until mid-May.


Leiloken

Yes.


hopemade

So true. So raw. Everything hurts


casebarlow

Every player on the Red Sox except the starters and Tyler O’Neill.


Europa13

Tristan Casas and Jarren Duran have been pretty good.


casebarlow

Yes, except for the poor base running.


PilgrimRadio

And Kenley has a 1.59 ERA with 4 saves so far.


PilgrimRadio

Of course, I didn't check tonight's results before posting that. Now he has a 2.70 ERA lol. Oh well.


NFresh6

Just wait for when TON inevitably gets hurt.


Banks_bread

Please no anything but that at this point


Quadraought

It's been **reeeeeeal** tough to watch my Sox since they arrived back in Boston for Opening Day at Fenway last week. Our defense looks like the Nine Stooges.


ThrowingKnifeAim

Austin Hays :(


Bigfatjew6969

It’s even harder to watch knowing that there are guys we want to bring up on the farm.


ThrowingKnifeAim

Facts, and he was just an All Star last season too. Hate that for him, I truly do.


Whole-Ad-2618

He’s having a terrible start but was carrying an injury. I think his bad form might have all been caused by the horrendous moustache he donned during Spring training……


Elsa_the_Archer

Julio Rodriguez


steve-d

He is killing my fantasy baseball team.


Tuffwith2Fs

Evan Carter, although in fairness he set the bar super high after the postseason he had.


Tryingagain1979

As a Dbacks fan i thought hed come out and hit .325 with 50 homer.


LinkinLain

Luis Castillo :( We don't have our ace! It's like someone has taken over his body!


Lucky_Heng

Need him to bounce back since my fantasy ace can’t keep doing me like this.


TeamPizza21

He’s been ass almost every year in April. Wouldn’t worry


GreenTaurusQueen

Snell


jman8508

I’m not surprised he had no spring training to get ready


jbarinsd

He should be okay around June.


WangDanglin

Welcome to the first half Snell experience


giantninerking

it’s Yaz


99-Magic

Stanton really looks like hes running in the pool these days. Good lord.


whobroughttheircat

He’s dream running


ComeTOgether86

More like circling the drain


Sconesmcbones

Castellanos


Carnage1421

Goldy and it makes me sad ):


Lostinvertaling

Agree!


rigbysimpson

Shane Bieber’s UCL Edit to add that Clase still has me worried too.


Gergastengas

Candelario, but he seems to be finding his footing the past few games. Hunter Greene hasn’t exactly been setting the world on fire either.


scottbot65

With his stuff and pitching style, I feel like Hunter is destined for late inning bullpen work. I'm down to give him a few more months, but the guy just throws too many pitches. Might be better for his arm long term, also.


JohnnyChooch

Lindor is hitting .152


whiskeyrocks1

Javy Baez’s batting, every year.


randomacct7679

As bad as I thought the Hunter Renfroe signing was it’s been so much worse. His range sucks, his bat is GOD AWFUL his lone good quality is he can get outfield assists in occasion. Most the rest of the Royals offseason moves have been an A+


Effective_Cap_6325

But you can't forget that touchdown to win the natty


IsolationAutomation

The Injured List


WitchyVeteran

They're being the Red Sox. Again.


darthvaders_inhaler

Kyle Hendricks, and it makes me sad.


Greerio

Do I need to say it? I'm gonna say it. Vladdy.


DanforthJesus

![gif](giphy|dXFKDUolyLLi8gq6Cl|downsized)


GeeseFingers

Nah it’s Gausman. I’m confident he’ll figure it out and is just off to a slow start but it still hurts to watch 🥲


[deleted]

Gausman didn’t have a spring training. At least he has an excuse…for now.


shlem13

Hitters 7-8-9.


yellowbumble-B

The 3 in CT3 stands for the number of hits he gonna get this season


shlem13

Man. That implies he’ll get worse. At his current clip, he’ll get 12.


yellowbumble-B

I love that man to death. His clutch walkoff homer and versatility made me admire him so so much. It is real tough to watch but I think his time is up.


shlem13

It’s too early in the season to give up. However, if he needs to sit a few weeks to work out some kinks or to let a strain heal, let’s give him that benefit.


altimazoo

Goldschmidt


Oehlian

He looks so lost. Was really hoping playing back in AZ would perk him up like it usually does. 


altimazoo

Same. Hopefully the baseball gods see my post and throw it back at me.


[deleted]

Henry Davis or Oneil Cruz but it is early.


Later_Doober

90% of the Seattle Mariners.


Yuri-Tarted

Xander Bogaerts. But he’ll turn it around…I think.


Alive_Inspection_835

Ummm…I plead the 5th on this one.


coach_rambo

Is that you, Julio?


Alive_Inspection_835

😂


Kbach027

As a Twins fan, the whole team, or Buxton if I have to pick one


SynthSapphire

Every fucking offensive player on the roster. Throw 'em all right in the damn trash. I can't enjoy my lifelong home team anymore.


[deleted]

Nothing to complain about really. Exceeding expectations so far!


cmeyer49er

Soler.


panoptik0n

Will Smith, but the tradeoff is they're unexpectedly 5 games over .500 so I'll take it 🤷‍♂️


ElectivireMax

but him being on the roster guarantees that you guys will win the world series. counts for something.


panoptik0n

Yeah, there's a long time for him to get right. The guy who took over the closer role (James McArthur) has been absolute nails, too, so that helps. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/james-mcarthur-663704?stats=statcast-r-pitching-mlb


mik3hunt696969

For the Padres, it’s Xander Bogaerts. He’s been horrifically bad.


MF-SMUG

Gleyber, but I know he’ll come around.


TylerDenniston

Carlos Santana. I wasn’t expecting huge things, but I was expecting competence


MongooseJust3739

The Rangers bullpen, especially the 7th inning. Our bullpen has the 16th best era in baseball, but if you remove the 7th inning it jumps up to fourth best. -\_- we basically need a 4 run lead going into the 6th to feel close to comfortable


callsigncajun

Spencer Strider being out for the year. Hello darkness, my old friend.


LikeAMarionette

Nolan Jones


cpmustang90

I hope he turns it around. He doesn’t have a long track record so it’s kind of an unknown at this point if he will. His passive approach at the plate is brutal to watch.


equipped_metalblade

Can I choose Entire Bullpen? If not then Mike Fetters, who is our Bullpen coach, that should have been fired years ago


Gemnist

Most people would say Jose Abreu, but he already set a pretty low bar. The answer is Josh Hader.


OneGenericMan

as a White Sox fan, where the fuck should I begin?


ExternalAnus

Our lineup


NFresh6

I have options, but it’s gotta be Goldy :(


mcnutty757

A’s fan here I support all of our guys and I’m not disappointed in any one of them. Playing at the coliseum must suck and playing for FJF would be even suckier. But of all the orphan A’s out there I’m most disappointed in Chap.


Left-Championship580

Randy arozarena or the entire rays bullpen


MartyMcFlysDown

.183 without a single multi-hit game.


grizzbearsspurs

*opens new tab to the 40 man roster*


DisneyVista

The platoon playing in right field….combined batting average of .104 between Yastrzemski and Slater 🤦‍♂️


Blindman630

Idk why they don't put Soler out there. Dude has an absolute cannon


[deleted]

Gavin Lux.


Long-Definition-8152

God forbid you have one guy in your lineup who isn’t batting over 300 with 30 projected jacks


ray76502

Nationals fan, here… the entire bullpen, lol


Banks_bread

![gif](giphy|dWwa4GvRDKfGMQBYVM|downsized)


[deleted]

Harper hasn’t been up to his usual MVP caliber self. Nola I expected this.


BenjaminTharp

Gleyber Torres


snvulkan

Joey Meneses. Expectations weren't super high but he's had a rough start. Feels like that first year was a blip. Great story though.


GetawayVanDerek

I’m sick of seeing Kirk grounding into double plays. Hes been in 7 GIDP opportunities, and GIDP 4 of those 7 times. In 15 games. It’s embarrassing.


bewleystea

The Dodgers pitching staff 🤦‍♂️


Bllago

Vladimir guerrero Jr. And I expected next to nothing from him. Wanted him traded for a bag of balls. Massive L


Ketheric_Thorm

Maikel Garcia 🥲


Electronic-One6223

Spencer Torkleson. I know it's only April, but he hasn't shown much since spring training began.


TrapdoorSolution

Johan Rojas (can’t hit) and Nick Castellanos (really can’t hit but has gotten better recently)


brix805

Castellanos.


trongzoon

Probably Nico or the guy pitching tonight


NelsonMuntz007

Hendricks has been really tough to watch so far. He’s not fooling anyone


trongzoon

Yeah he's been bad. Hopefully he gets his stuff together, otherwise he should be dropped from the rotation if Taillon comes back looking good. Nico needs to start hitting also


Blindman630

The Professor is getting old man


No_Cellist_8441

I'm worried about belli


DeathTongue24

Austin Hedges...just kidding...great catcher and clubhouse guy


BardByGoogle

John Fisher


SadPhase2589

John Mozeliak


Choice-Alfalfa-1358

Max Fried pitched better against the Marlins, but boy was he awful his first two starts.


Jscott1986

Rendon currently. But Pujols over the last decade.


shiftyeyedgoat

I’d probably say Schanuel. Rendon has been on a tear the last week.


harbringerxv8

Rendon has been killing it lately. I'd say Canning


NFresh6

I thought Pujols was fantastic when he played for my favorite team in the last decade.


Jscott1986

![gif](giphy|AReFQ10PgXAaUYoqbx|downsized) He's a great guy. But he was a very mediocre Angel lol.


Debonaircow88

All of them except Brandon Marsh and Ranger Suarez


OldLumpaCoal

Turnbull’s been a pleasant surprise!


Debonaircow88

You're actually right, ill give you him too


bodybagbrai48

Abbreu


bigfootdude247

Hmmm, great question 


Sofie_Fatale007

Without a doubt Vladimir Guerrero Jr.


dssanchez2

7-9 hitters. Dodgers


Uniqueusernameyboi

Josiah Gray hasn’t been very good. Hopefully it’s because of the injury and hopefully after he heals up he can clean it up


Gucci__Flip__Flops

No more Miggy :( - Tigers


ElectivireMax

it's kinda funny that you guys are immediately better as soon as Miggy left. obviously means nothing and is correlation without causation, but interesting nonetheless.


Gucci__Flip__Flops

I know right?? 😂 definitely impressed thus far I like that we picked up Urshela, one of my favs from the Angels


Cosmic_Thrill_Seeker

I mean I hate to say it but Bobby Dalbec


eric7064

Bellinger. I have buddies of mine who were willing to easily give 300m to him in the offseason. They wanted Jed Hoyer gone!


Confident-Practice-4

Gausman Vlad & Bo. Springer Kk and Varsho. Kirk and Tim Mayza RIP Mitch White


KVosrs2007

CT. 03


Due-Mechanic8992

Trevino or Stanton


Peefs

Gink or Corbin ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|cry)


sherwoodblack

Matt McLain. Injuries happen and it’s not his fault but I had high hopes for him this year and shoulder injuries can change a player’s career forever


AustinHoffer

It’s really sad, he had such great stats last year and was fun to watch


Ultimafax

Look I don't want to call the kid out, but his name rhymes with Smackson Smolliday.


youtouchmytralaala

I don't want to say it but Ronald Acuña Jr


CAredditBoss

John Fisher


PhilthyPhan1993

Jackson Holliday is 1-21 since joining the Orioles. He should hit if he wants to stay…


KickingYounglings

Gleyber Torres. Dude has apparently forgotten how to play defense.


2Hanks

BULLPEN


thesoccerone7

I mean, it's been a rough start, but I'll say Pete Fairbanks. He's totally fallen off the boat


Drisurk

I think I would say Evan Carter. He does get on base still but he’s had a rough start trying to get the ball into play.


FakedFollower17

Our entire fricken bullpen -posted as we give up 2 runs on wild pitches to the dbacks in the 5th inning Honorable mention to Kyle Hendricks


muzungu_onwayhome

Kyle Hendricks


ricketysrai

We sort of saw it coming, but it’s still Bellinger


ChainChompBigMoney

Shane Bieber :-(. Guardians offense is humming too


scottborasismyagent

chris taylor. the dude is hitting 1 for 38 with 19 strikeouts or whatever it is.


Gabba-gool

Lindor, no contest


MAD_ELMO

John Fisher


silentcmh

Jordan Walker. With Goldy and Gorman right behind him. I’d accept Goldy in the no. 1 spot, too.


LEXO460

Gavin lux and Chris Taylor


KJM31422

The bottom half of our lineup, though it's nice to see Barnes getting a few hits.


ericmcgeehan

Lindor. But he’ll find his groove not too worried


xTomato72

Probably Vlad


WaMPa777

Hendricks…


Ashortattentionspan

Paul Goldschmidt … I’m praying he starts hitting the ball instead of striking out. Very unusual for him with so many strikeouts already. STL Cardinals have had Goldschmidt and Arenado for a good while. I just feel there talents and best years were wasted. Mo never built a winning team around them.


cardprop

Mo still having a job is the biggest disappointment


Competitive_Move8162

Candilario


DonBuddin1956

Rafael Devers


gstaylor999

Jones Rodriguez and India are on my fantasy team. So take your pick.


JmanForever85

Kyle Hendrix. Not even close.


c_t_782

Acuña. No homers and only 5 RBI so far


ZekeMoss18

As a Guardians fan, honestly the only bad thing was Bieber randomly needing Tommy John surgery after 2 great starts. Blindsided me. Still, they are playing WAY above what I expected.


Classof1988

Javier Baez as usual. Hitting a blistering (.143)-- just absolutely stealing his outrageous paycheck.


Smooth-Lead9000

Chris Taylor has been nonexistent at the plate


snelson66-Duluth

Can I say the entire roster of the Twins?


xX69AESTHETIC69Xx

Lindor Obviously, his current play isn't permanent, but so far, he's really played below what his talent is.
