He moves like someone constantly surprised by the amount of gravity on Earth. -
The Giants have had more than one LF taking crummy routes today.

When one run is disproportionately important, it's not that simple. seems to me the odds of scoring one run don't increase that much with 1 out and a runner on 2nd vs 0 out and runner on first anyway, without even taking into account that you're talking about wasting a good hitter http://www.tangotiger.net/re24.html That's showing you mean and not median. I've also thought that it's a little simplistic to look at on the whole since bunting falls into both categories(save for failed bunts).
-
fyi I do not advocate bunting with Fowler here
-
Soler saw one strike in that PA and hit it 450 feet foul that is how to work a plate appearance
-
i don't care if bad hitters bunt. i hate hate hate giving away outs with good hitters. When one run is disproportionately important, it's not that simple.
-
No problem with Fowler's bunt yesterday or Contreras bunting there. Would've been a little annoyed if Heyward had actually bunted given how many of his probable outcomes are similar to bunting.
-
Belt called out on strike 4, is angry anyway
-
This must be what Friday felt like for the Giants
-
Raisin just got retweeted by Len and I'm not sure if Len knows it was a joke
-
Hunter Pence moves like a small child's art project that came to life
-
80-90 per Maddon
-
was 3rd base unoccupied? Should he have just kept going?

the Giants seem to love angry left handed pitchers as much as they love contact heavy left handed hitters
-
3-0 strike that gets called 0% of the time if it wasn't 3-0

I never actually saw a view with Romo on the base before Baez with the dust, although it was pretty easy to infer when you compared camera angles The play at home Baez was halfway to the dugout when the tag was applied and it was in full view even in real time are you guys watching the same broadcast i am? The point is that Baez was one jillion percent safe at home, any implication that it was anything less than a gross miscarriage of justice will be contested
-
Rizzo/Fowler/Bryant/Zobrist in the 9th, that'll work as long as it's held at 1
-
I thought he was pretty obviously safe at home earlier this week so... i thought he was safe but that was wayyyyy less obvious, come on this was cut and dried I never actually saw a view with Romo on the base before Baez with the dust, although it was pretty easy to infer when you compared camera angles The play at home Baez was halfway to the dugout when the tag was applied and it was in full view even in real time
-
probably actually out but I'm still super bitter about Baez being out at home earlier this week so he was owed that
-
someone forgot to feed the "play baseball" paper into Pence's mouth today
-
He's up 2nd, so if they want to give up an at bat just so Bumgarner can face Heyward/Soler/Fowler at 100 pitches, I'm on board. i mean the went no DH with bumgarner, didn't they? I'll make no assumptions on how bright the Giants are, but Bumgarner has a .580 OPS this year and .531 for his career.

I don't understand the swings and misses on that slider
