How poorly has Addy been playing? He had a walk and a hit in game 1, and probably had the best overall AB against Strasburg when he was dominating everyone else and generally seems to be hitting the ball hard since his return. This is just based on gut I have no idea if the numbers validate this. That said Addy vs Scherzer seems like a poor matchup for sure Addy has hit a dong off Scherzer in a game Scherzer was dominant. I feel like the doom boners are just out in force today because of how we lost the other night.
Without a doubt. But guess it wouldn't take long for Monty to get warm again. But at least another batter would have to hit It's hot and humid, Monty would need about 3 pitches to be ready to go.
I laughed at Darling saying "Contreras is 23 for his last 52 with runners in scoring position" because that's such a dumb stat. Then thought, nope, that is exactly what Dusty is horsefeathering thinking.
