There is something that this team really doesn't like about bases-loaded situations.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Andres Blanco.

[TruffleShuffle]

Why wouldn't you PH for Blanco there? WHY

 

it's the 4th inning.

 

if you PH it has to be theriot; you can't PH with fox and then put theriot at SS. you'll already be down two position players.

[ConstableRabbit]

Andres Blanco.

Unfortunately, the bases loaded situation always happens with automatic outs coming up.

[illiniguy]

Andres Blanco.

I love that Hendry keeps signing guys the Royals have been getting rid of. Gathright now Blanco. I wonder what Ruben Gotay is doing? Or Andy Sisco.

Theriot + bases loaded has turned out great this season, I think :D

[Outshined_One]

Andres Blanco?

[jersey cubs fan]

2 outs, odds are whoever you put out there is also going to make an out. Now you're out one position player and not even halfway through the game. Is Theriot really all that great of a bet? You could use Bradley but then he's burned and you have to put Theriot in at SS.

Castro struck out swinging

I HATE it when good pitching performances go to waste.

That was an amusing AB.

Yep. The good thing is I just expect it now. last night my fiancee was like oh they got this tied. I told her I would be in bed in a few minutes.
