    yep, blue shirt with red sleeves guy manages to [expletive] up two things in the space of about five seconds, all because he is raising his arms to cheer overly enthusiastically.

    Good pitching day, aside from that Roach guy.

    Somebody wrote this in the comment section of a BP minor league update today: Was at the Kris Bryant game. He can't throw from third, has nobody noticed this? I feel like it's somewhat reported, but under-reported. He takes forever to setup and the ball just sails. It's possible the ball was a bit wet, but I've noticed his long setup before. His glove looks fine, but his throws take too long for him to get ready and then it seems that once he is setup he rushes through the throw - perhaps because by the time he's ready the runner is nearly at first. Also the SB was not because of his speed (at all), just smart base running. That said, all three of his singles were very solidly struck - bat is ready, obviously. Ball sounds great off his bat. He did whiff on about 4 sliders/cutters low/away during the game. Has a love/hate relationship with that pitch. Obviously it's based on a small sample size, a game in which he committed two throwing errors. I do hope he can hold down third base at least for this season, because I feel a lot more confident about getting adequate offensive production from Coghlan/Denorfia/Szczur in LF than I do of getting that from some combo of Olt/Mendy/La Stella/Herrera/Baez at 3B.

    The cards struck out 7 times against him in 6 innings? They should be ashamed of themselves.
  9. TruffleShuffle
    olt swung at every fastball that was in the strike zone.
  10. TruffleShuffle
    hard to blame olt considering that he ended up in a two-strike hole by looking at two balls.

    Let's ask Aroldis Chapman. http://cdn.meme.am/images/188548.jpg :lol: bryan price's performance today was... not impressive.
  18. TruffleShuffle
    i think he has like 5 phrases that he can say in english, all of which have to do with having fun and playing hard.

    shouldn't every RH batter just be bunting with butcher mcgee playing 3b?
  21. TruffleShuffle
    heartily approve of using rondon here.

    alcantara seems to be juan pierre-ing a lot.

    i feel like chapman should've pitched this inning, since it is the heart of the lineup and two of the hitters (rizzo, coghlan) were lefties. better to use the closer to blow through the heart of the lineup, then let jumbo or whoever face the bottom of the lineup in the 9th.
  25. TruffleShuffle
    is jumbo diaz pitching to brayan pena one of the fattest batteries in baseball history?
