Joc isn’t getting platooned
BlueSkyLA
Call it what you will, but over the last couple of seasons he’s been platooned in all but name. If his splits this season remain as abysmal as they’ve been, expect him to see very limited exposure to LHP this year.

Can’t hit a curveball. Can’t steal bases….Pederson should be traded

You’re probably right, but it’s a chicken and egg thing almost. If the team only shows enough confidence to play Pederson against lefties every once in a blue moon, how’re they going to adequately evaluate him, and how’s he going to improve? Tough question. I’m hoping he’s going to improve enough to be a decent weapon against all pitchers. Watching him play is fun.

The man needs to learn to tighten up his swing and hit to the opposite field. If he could do that, even some of the time, he’d be very dangerous and rarely sit on the bench. Not so far. At this point he’s trying to hit all of them to Pasadena. That’s how you bat .125 against same-side pitching.

Man… poor Ethier seems like every time he gets a real opportunity to shine he breaks. Dude had greater potential hopefully he can rebound from this in time to give us one of those amazing walk offs in the postseason!

I am sure the $90 million will cheer him up.
