Was it just me, or was Z crying/tearing up in the dugout?

[badger1679666666]

I couldn't tell from the camera angle for sure, but both me and my friend thought he had tears/welling up etc. Wouldn't be surprised since he's an emotional guy who wants to win more than anything, but just checking to see if other's saw that.

[Roast]

I didn't see; but I would cry too if I was taken out of a game that I was pitching masterfully in, in order to be saved for a game that never even occurred because my team went on to get swept.

 

That had to be a frustrating series for the entire team; especially him.

[anabiono]

Big Z came over to my house tonight and we both cried after our 20th shot of tequila...

 

warning...don't ever get drunk with Z...he gets really huggy and well...he is a big guy and sweats profusely...

[Little Slide Rooter]

Maybe it was because he was the only one on the team who put forth any kind of effort.

Soto did some good things, and he is clearly our catcher next year, but he batted .167 for the series with one hit. I know that hit was a home run, and he did look like our tallest midget, but let's not make his series out to be better than it was....

Seriously? You think it has anything to do with a lack of effort? If anything they were all trying too hard.

Arent we past the days using batting average as the know all be all stat? His OBP for the series was near .400, so lets not make batting average more meaningful than it really is...

Ok, pal...how about these stats. He only had 2 RBI! I'm sure his CERA sucked, too! How many games did we win when he started? Zero! He obviously doesn't know how to win. He batted 7th, if he were any good at all don't you think Lou would have moved him up?

 

This craze for Soto is out of control. Brad Ausmus will be a free agent this year. Hector Villenuava is an option too.

Agreed, RBI is the most important stat by far. Then Night Games started, then sacrifice bunts, then batting avg. Those are the only 4 you need.

I really have no idea what the point of this was Soto craze? Yea its out of control that fans like a guy who has out produced every one of the guys at his position this year. Its out of control that us fans want to see the guy who gives us the best chance at some consistent production from a spot in the lineup that was absolutely atrocious all year. I guess that is out of control.

the only stat i care about is if he hustles to first when he hits a grounder.

[rynefan]

That means he had two more RBIs than ARam, Lee and Sori put together. Go SOTO!

[BigbadB]

How many games did we win when he started? Zero! He obviously doesn't know how to win.

Lol, thank goodness somebody caught on. I was starting to wonder what else I needed to do to tip it off.
