horsefeathering Davis is horsefeathering awful. -
Also, Davis is a mess.
-
Theo will sign him and ask for forgiveness later
-
It was very wide, and crappy footwork by Baez led to it. Rizzo whiffed on it. E6 but give Rizzo the assist
-
Javy shouldn't have thrown it but my god Rizzo catch the horsefeathering ball
-
This might actually be the meatballiest thing I've ever read. I'm more impressed than anything. Also, you should stop watching.
-
Lol Jaxon's revenge
-
Making an aggressive out at third with one out is exactly the kind of aggressiveness you should be good with. That was one helluva throw.
-
took an amazing throw to get him on a close play Without looking it up I'd bet Willson has really good BsR numbers. I already know Rizzo is like the 3rd best base running 1B in the league. What a fun take though.
-
Fairly certain Rizzo released Heisey just so dusty would stop batting him second. I remember seeing a star where the Nats are like 14-4 when Difo hits second and you KNOW dusty thinks that's a real stat.
-
1-2 dickshots are a bad idea John
-
When Jaxon dominates I may go even more meatball than I did today, but I won't have the accompanying 4 beer lunch to spur me along.

Someone start a send Carl to Iowa thread.

84 MPH pitches up in the zone are going to get hit out of the park more often than pitches at 87 mph in the same spot. That's more an effect of his command being not as good as it was last year, but yeah we don't even know what we should be looking to regress it to because of the dumb ball. His SwStr% is back down to a few ticks lower than 2014 and 15 at 7.5%. His first pitch strike rate is average now, instead of well above average. His O-Contact% is way up which is weird because I'd guess guys are chasing but just not whiffing as much, which again velocity. His EV might be down on average but I'd like to see the data on barrels overall. I think he's clearly giving up more barrels than last year but that's totally based off the eye test. Either way, in no world is 84mph better than 87-88mph with a 90 mixed in here and there, and until that changes we shouldn't expect him to be that good and right now he's an average MLB pitcher, and even that's kind of crazy when you throw that softly.
-
Easy to steal on a guy who throws like a middling high school sophomore.
-
So Kyle with diminished velocity is bad. Contact management can only go so far and despite what we've told ourselves his command is nowhere near an 80 grade tool. Regression was inevitable but he's a mid-tier 5th starter at this point. edit: 4th starter*
-
[expletive] I'm irrationally mad about just how horsefeathering stupid that was.
-
The horsefeathers willson?
-
At least he hasn't walked anyone
-
New guy sucks too
-
This would suck to lose so don't lose Cubs.
-
He really needs to be getting the bad Rondon treatment
-
Edwards blows
-
What a weird decision by Lovullo to let Greinke hit and only give him a one batter leash
