Today Lamb is showing why it took so long to call him up. Six LOB already and he didn't even start. We could've had a comfortable lead if he came through even once.
really liking leaving an overpaid washed up loser like price in here davey wouldn't be cool to just sweep a down on their luck team like this would it?
Yeah, probably was. Glad your on the watchtower...how's Jimmy? But the point is, Lux cost the team a lot today. A lot. Oh, and David Price sucks. Washed up and faded like an old pair of bluejeans. And I'm sure I've got the right guy on this one.
Could have been played, but both balls were smoked. Julio had nothing today. He's human. Glad they bailed him out.
Okay, I get that he didn't make the plays in the first, although it sounds like they were screamers. But I struggle to blame the kid when it's probably not HIS choice to be in the OF. And he was on base four times today... I know at least a couple of those kept rallies going. I'm starting to have a pretty high level of confidence when he's at the plate and we need a hit.
Second one was a blooper in front of him. He took one step in then waited like 2-3 seconds for the ball to fall maybe 10 feet in front of him
Am I the only one (admittedly anal about baseball fundamentals) who caught Contreras jogging out a ground ball with the bat in his hands all the way to 1B? That's your NL All-Star starter at catcher. Not disputing his credentials, but that's bullshit. Fuck him.
Look I can't see exit velocities at the stadium but I can't get the image of him standing there 2-3 seconds while the ball fell in front of him out of my head.
