Thole made that throwing error. The very next play, he didn't rush it and got the out.

IF the young guys come up

and all the team does it lose, and they see nobody gives a shit, then they are not really learning how to play at this level.

I mean, Thole is using Schneider as a mentor ?. Come on !

So, they only learn when the team wins?

They are still facing ML players, in NY, in front of 30k fans.

I see how that would affect their "morale", but still disagree.

We wouldn’t see youngsters develop in ML losing (losers) teams.

Well, there you have it.

All I can say is...

Thank the gods we are not in this race. If I had to watch these bizarre loses to end some of these games that actually counted, I’d be looking for the nearest ledge.

Dropped pop ups, triple plays, balls knocking gloves off the pitcher and still making the play, etc. etc.
