8/27 Cubs (Turner) @ Reds (Latos) 6:10 pm CT CSN

[Sammys Boombox]

i'm a baseball moron when it comes to some rules but i thought the reason for the infield fly rule was so that guys couldn't do stuff like what len was talking about

No infield fly rule active with only one man on base.

 

Doesn't have to be infield fly rule.

 

6.05(l)

A batter is out when --

 

An infielder intentionally drops a fair fly ball or line drive, with first, first and second, first and third, or first, second and third base occupied before two are out. The ball is dead and runner or runners shall return to their original base or bases;

great defense, guys. stellar

 

like either of those were easy plays lol

 

well no, but I find it more painful to see my team losing on soft contact grounders than on hard hit linedrives.

Turner was very hitable, but his defense gave him little help too. I don't care about the results too much, I think this is just "throw him out there and let Bosio look at him".

[Derwood]

speaking of hittable

[Derwood]

so many singles

[sneakypower]

our problem is that we're hitting rally-killing HRs, not singles

outside of jaxon i think villanueva is the guy i'm most annoyed to see play now that barney is gone

When you have a big ERA despite good peripherals and stuff, you lose your vowels.

[UMFan83]

Just because you are taking Jaxons spot in the rotation doesn't mean you have to be Jaxon

[d_money]

Latos looks like Spanky

[gscool89]

Turner wasn't even that bad. Arrieta wasn't exactly lighting it up in his stint last year.

[George Hayduke]

Yuck Coghlan.

Reds announcers going on and on about hustling.

Baez just flailing up there

[sneakypower]

i see pitchers are now spiking the ball directly into the ground to see if Baez will still swing

Recognize the GREATER GOOD before I have you slain for wearing a crusty jumper.

It still angered me.

It was more tolerable when he had the awesome mustache. Now he's just a shitty pitcher with no facial hair upside.

 

and 0.9 fWAR which surprises me.
