The Guardians debuted their post-deadline roster last night against the woeful Mets, but they were the ones who were woeful.
Jo Adell was awesome; he left nobody on base. So how did the other 9 participants leave 29? Bazzana left 7, Hoskins left 6, Martinez left 5. There’s 18. Arias’s 4 gets us to 22. More on him in a minute. Lowe 3, Kwan 2. 27. DeLauter and Rocchio 1 each. 29. Austin Hedges, who was hitless, was the only new friend of Adell’s who also left 0.

The gawdawful situational hitting wasn’t the only fundamental that the Guardians neglected last night.
It was Rocchio who made the last out at third, and it was Arias who made a terrible throw for the error. He might be DFA’d by the time you read this becauuuuuuusssseeee…..
Let’s hope it’s that, and not Jose Ramirez going back on the IL with the wrist soreness that kept him out of this game v NYM.
They couldn’t even score against Kodai Senga who entered the game 0-8 with a 8.66 ERA. Senga walked the 8th Guardian of the night. None of those 8 scored.
Stephen Vogt might need a new staff more than he needed new players.
