The thing about having an explosive offense is it puts pressure on the pitcher. I agree you needed your keep the 3 LHH Ofers, otherwise you werent just net positive lineup. Opposing pitchers can try and paint those corners, or get guys to chase….. because a walk vs this lineup never hurts you when we strike out 12-14x a game.
McCullers in the game the other day looked as relaxed as a backfield 3 inning sim game vs our lineup. And it’s not fun to watch, pitching and defense junkies have to agree when Correa hit that 3 run home run you KNEW the game was over.
