what is going on with that guy's reaction? the sharp edge of the plastic casing at the end of the bat (holding the ball) whiffed his head Did it? I was thinking he was just reacting to the whoosh of air. Like, "whoa, is there a bird landing on me?"
What? Wasn't the whole point of Zobrist that he can move around and Maddon previously used him by moving him around? It's a little late in the game for him to stop being okay with moving around. Yes, but he was not okay with being "just" that guy. He made us promise him a position all to himself, and that position was second base.
Is Zobrist okay with being moved around? I know one of his stipulations when he came here was that he wanted a regular everyday position. I figured he was kinda stuck at 2b just for that reason.
Wait a second, Soler is playing left and Bryant is playing right... I guess Joe just wants Soler getting reps in left, since that's where he will usually play?
I'm a little worried that he's gonna have a down year offensively and everyone is gonna freak out like, "SEE! $184 MIL FOR DEFENSE!" In the long run, though, it will work out. As others have said, he has a track record and he will hit eventually.
I propose a fighting league with two divisions. Still Members vs Banned Members. Considering the obvious correlation between mental instability and fighting ability, I don't think I'd want to be on the "still members" side.
I would rather stick Schwarber in center than stoop to Billy Hamilton level. Seriously, we already have enough of a logjam, and he's not good at baseball.
