I’ve started watching in subtitles (millennial) because the damn score and music is so loud but the dialogue is so soft in about 90 percent of everything now.
Spieth was an all-world iron player during the initial run. Looking at strokes gained stuff, he was pretty much the best ball striker 2014-2017, then wobbled in 2018 and was horrendous in 2019 and 2020. Since then he’s been okay—good enough to win on occasion—except for last year when I guess you can chalk it up to his wrist injury.
Watched a lot of him at the Masters. His driver looks pretty solid but his approach play is still pretty iffy. He just doesn’t seem to stuff shorter irons that much - lots of 25 foot putts.
I still think he’s too talented not to at least get back to contending on a consistent basis.
Cut him and move on. Hate this franchise. Can’t even lose the right way - they scored three runs in LA last night to break the scoreless innings streak at 32.
I agree it looks like we need more more guard and then we’ll be set.
I’d be shocked if the team didn’t take a step forward from last season’s poop show.
