Well they are winning with Thole in the lineup calling games and playing defense with little to no offense, so I'm fine with it. IMO we should have never gotten rid of Mathis. J.P. is also slumping terribly right now and when he does get an at bat he looks like he has no game plan other than swinging wildly at pitches out of the strike zone. At least Thole can bunt or hit and run to make a productive out.
If J.P. doesn't progress next year they need to find a different catcher. I don't care how many home runs he hits, the catcher needs to be a leader on the field and he doesn't show any signs of that.
