Last ride for CT.095?

Christ Taylor is going 4-4 with a bomb and 2 doubles. The Dodgers will blowout the yanks.

In other news Im gonna shoot around with Kobe before the game. Me and Salma Hayek got seats behind home plate

Why the fuck is Vargas on the team if they’re not gonna play him????

"Chris, we need you, and you need to work on your swing, please consent to heading to the minors for a minute."

i wanted him off the team then i found out he is the only player who contributes time and money to the boys and girls club in east LA. So i shall root for him.

This has to be Taylor's last stand.

JHey: “You’re benching ME?”

Doc: “You see, you’re a left-hander and so is the pitcher. If I send up Taylor, a right-handed batter, it’s called ‘playing the percentages.’ It’s what smart managers do to win ballgames.”

JHey: “But Taylor is hitting below .100! And I’ve got a 1.113 OPS in my last 5 games!”

Doc: “And you should feel very proud of yourself. Taylor! You’re in!”

JHey: “But if you just want a righty bat, why not play Vargas in LF instead of Taylor?”

Doc: “Who?”

LF isn't even a difficult position. We have a .095 hitter there. It is rather silly.

Miguel Vargas justice

He’s still owed a fair amount of money so it isn’t ideal to cut him, but he’s also playing like garbage. If it goes on much longer then surely they have to DFA. He needs to turn it around sharpish if he wants to stay here.

They need to play Vargas more.

Whether you think he should play or not, he's a good dude and doesn't deserve the harsh words.

what happened to ct3 man, went to my first dodgers game last year and everybody was cheering for him

Come on Chris Taylor let’s bring it today!

Kiké has been awful too and his defense has been killing us. If you’re gonna put CT in the lineup at least slot him at 3B, start Vargas in LF and bench Kiké

Starting CT3 is getting ridiculous

I would rather see JH than CT3

There are guys with better numbers than Taylor getting released from their teams

DFA Taylor already.

U know everybody on the team readying up their fielding gears when CT is at bat 😂

Guys doc just likes him in this spot

CT3 has some value and DFAing him will be massively expensive. The only positions he can't play are literally catcher and pitcher. Defensive flexibility and Defensive Runs Saved are real things and he gives you both. It's not ideal for sure, but dumping him does not make the team better...at least for now. It just eases your self-imposed frustration.

You guys act like Taylor is starting every game. Stop your bitching.

They have to play him. He can’t just sit on the bench forever. If that was what was happening then they would have DFAd him already.

We are winning our division by 8 games. Chris Taylor isnt gonna start in the playoffs, or maybe even be on the team, but its early June and he is on the team so he is going to get at bats.

He also cant be sent down so this is the only thing to do besides cut him which is im sure something they are considering. But until then he will get play time.

ct needs to go be with his family. he's done.

Man, I just don't get why we're playing Kike and CT over Vargas in either position. They're all righties, and it feels like a wash defensively. MAYBE I could get wanting Kike defense at 3rd (lol, especially recently), but the LF?

Really feels like CT's last ride.

Keke and Taylor are so 2022. Can we get some guys that can at least hit .230 to 240? I seriously don’t want to lose in the playoffs again because our bats go silent. This money ball shit when you have a huge payroll is stupid.

Bring back Outman, please!

Currently Ct.106 and only rising 🤓😤

The regular season means almost nothing to the Dodgers. They don't care if it's the Pirates or the Yankees who they're playing. They're playing 162 games to go into October with the best roster available. They hope that CT3 can figure it out and be a key contributor as he has been in the past.

This is honestly insulting to Vargas at this point. You call him up, barely give him any run, and give CT playing time to boot... fuck that

I believe in ct3 we know what he’s done and capable of

DFA? Love you but you’re a liability at this point.,

Where’d these CT3 leaving rumors come from? Feel like I missed something

You know..... KT3 better change his swing or something. His upper swing is slowing him down and making him swing and miss. As he gets older he needs to adjust to pitches. I think he can see those 95mph+ pitches, his swing is making it too damn slow to hit it. Well I'm just a armature baseball lover so what else can I say. Wish we could swap in DH for position player and have pitcher hit. Pretty sure Stone can bunt

It literally would be better to have Stone take at bats than to have Taylor in the lineup.

CT3 got a hit on his 1st AB today. If only that Cole interview ended sooner!

We should let the Pitcher bat and put the DH in CT’s batting position! I don’t think the Pitchers would do any worse. I remember Kershaw being a decent hitter, for a pitcher, not Ohtani level good but still decent.

Why keep Gavin Lux? He hasn't produced much. Worthless and horrible on defense. Why keep playing Betts at SS when it should be Rojas? Dodgers keep guys that haven't produced on defense and barely help on offense.

I still hate this analytics crap. Platers shouldn't be rotated based on pitcher. It is crap. Rookies who don't get everyday playing time at one position get sent to minors, then called up, then sent down. Already watching AJ Hinch do this constantly and it shows how bad the system is.

Jfc Taylor again

I just dont understand Roberts and CT3 at this point. This is much more than slump its just really not working out. Ive been okay with letting him get some at bats in low stakes situations but starting him against the fucking YANKEES?

can ct3 just fucking dissapear already. fuck that loser. i hate that guy.

I can’t agree with this lineup. Obviously running CT out there when the offense is struggling makes no sense. Also Will Smith should be batting 3rd against an LHP.
