I don't know if I've ever seen a balk like that, did he not see the first baseman? -
Nelson has seen about as many pitches as the rest of their lineup combined
-
This ump seems really anchored to where the catcher is set up. I've seen strikes on both sides uncalled because they missed a spot, and that nonsense on Baez gets called twice.

Tseng only being 22 seems impossible, I looked it up when I saw he was the SP tonight thinking he was 24. -

The SP Mills, Candelario, and Zagunis. Basically, the heart of the order and the starting pitcher. Please subscribe to my newsletter for more keen insight. -
Imagine watching Sportscenter in 2017.

I don't know that I'd go that far, he's still a guy with a career .075 IsoP that is getting his first AAA exposure at 24. Showing a higher IsoP in full season ball after a couple Arizona home runs is a pretty big hurdle. Especially since playing a little SS isn't the same as being a defensive asset there to offset the absence of power.

fyi I'm gonna beat this reference into the ground i spent way too long looking for a gif of this when carl came in the other night. came up empty. This is as close as I can come: http://imgur.com/jmDZdVp Maybe some enterprising somebody can add a caption.

I think there's some pretty significant calibration issues right now with Pitch f/x and Gameday as a result. In St. Louis for sure but other parks too.

CARL SO GOOD TO SEE YOU

Welp, hopefully Rondon was playing possum in ST like last year. Would rather see Edwards though.
-
This is coming from someone who iirc is a little bit of a Coomer apologist. I'm a Coomer-as-analyst apologist, he shouldn't be allowed to touch PBP
-
Coomer does PBP like he's reading real PBP that was put through Google Translate in 15 different languages before coming back to English.
-
Having Coomer do PBP while Pat clearly remains in the booth seems spiteful.

this is gonna be one of those games where Lackey inexplicably pitches into the 8th, isn't it no one turns early innings 'are we gonna get blown out' into a bullpen saving start more often than him
-
well now we won't have to wonder who is going to sit out every day after Lackey eats Zobrist limb from limb

Well, maybe a little surprised. More seriously, this move is delightful to me for some reason. Basically taunting the Dodgers for not fixing their ability to hit LHP. Well, they did get Forsythe. Can't see platooning Seager vs. just letting a young superstar try to improve at it. Same kinda goes for Pederson (without the super part). Grandal was good vs both hands last year, despite a crappy BA. Could've easily gotten a platoon partner for Gonzalez, though. And I had no idea Turner had such drastic reverse splits. They had the ghost of Franklin Gutierrez and Slur Hernandez as 2/3rds of their OF against a LHP on Tuesday. Toss in Gonzalez being platoon worthy and Seager being not so superstar-ish against LHP, they are not good. Just because your roster construction makes it hard to make your lineup less exploitable doesn't make it any less worthy of mockery when they don't do it.
