Wisdom would probably 200/280/520 his way to an 800 OPS with consistent ABs, but I just don’t see how someone with his contact issues can be expected to give you anything in PH spots and one start a week. 

They're playing on the string with him. He's gone after this year.

[PackLandVA]

I’m confused. Should I be encouraged or discouraged thru 2 innings pitched.

That's a clue

Loud contact for a 1-2-3 first, pretty dominant striking out the side in the 2nd

[squally1313]

Im a big happ defender but that ball needs to get put in play 

[Transmogrified Tiger]

how does Bellinger keep getting away with this

[squally1313]

We will certainly take that

I was so hoping that Wisdom figured it out at age 30, but once again I am left disappointed. 

He should of been released when Schwindel got released 

[Tryptamine]

Corbin Burnes gives up gives up 3 hits in the first but only 1 run despite men on 1st and 3rd with no outs. That's disappointing.

[CubinNY]

Skubel (sp?) having a pissy fit in the dugout after Belli's... hit.

Jameson off to a good start

Should we be worried 😬

[Tryptamine]

How to you give a lead off walk to a guy like that? Just literally throw it down the middle and see what he can do with it.

[squally1313]

Just realized that they decided to go with madrigal over wisdom at third. Probably more damning for his future prospects here than anything else. 

[CubinNY]

I lost my feed. Anyone else watching on MLB.tv

Still fine here

[squally1313]

Certainly another way to get him out of the game 

[CubinNY]

where did that hit him?

Right in the dick.

[CubinNY]

I got hit on the inside of my thigh by 76 MPH fast ball one time and I thought I broke my femur. 

[CubinNY]

no-no going into the bottom of the 4th.

[Transmogrified Tiger]

nicky two outs strikes again

[Andy]

I still haven't gotten used to the idea that Nick Madrigal is pretty decent but I'm glad he has been.

[mul21]

The JD story about getting hit in the ass is the reason he's so good at this.
