I was surprised it was that low. Mullins might have exceeded it without the injuries. More critical than the good might have been the only 5 guys totally 93 plate appearances in negative WAR.
-
I sent my obligatory annual email complaining about concessions after the game Friday night. Two stands had run out of Italian sausages and one of brats by the 4th inning, but neither let you know until you got to the front after waiting for 5 min in line. Concessions management has been pathetic since the pandemic.
-
I guess I was confused by the fact that it was clearly over the front wall, the player doesn’t have the “right” to the ball at that point, correct?
-
What was that review all about? At the game so didn’t have benefit of all the replays, was there a thought that the fan was out over the field wall? Looked like Buxton was upset with the fan.
-
His 2nd and 3rd at bats tonight were good. Good contact on the line out. I’d like him to attack more, but it’s pretty remarkable looking at the pitch locations he’s seeing, it seems like they are all on the black. The couple that have been fully over the plate he has fouled off or made contact on.
-
And I’m pretty sure he was on the bench most of that game. Came on in the 7th or 8th as I recall.
-
Does Statcast account for positioning at the time the ball was hit? Sounds like he was shaded towards RCF a bit.
-
For the record, I don’t think his swing is broken, and he’s very much in the adjustment window. There is also enough information by now to get a rough idea on how he is being pitched that he can look for pitches and spots. I was only noting that if this continues for another 30+ at bats, his swing likely will be broken. All to say that nobody is above being sent back if that’s what it takes.
-
No doubt, but at some point you get out of wack, your swing and confidence are gone and you need to get it back. Grayson didn’t really have anything to prove against AAA competition last year. Same with Cowser to a lesser extent. They just needed to get right.
-
I’d think if Holliday gets to somewhere between 30-50 at bats and is hitting under .100, they’d have to think about giving him that reset.
-
I thought the same about the national broadcast bit. Hopefully that grows over time. I like the radio guys to have an interesting voice or delivery, something both Hollander and Arnold have. Wagner is a bit of a straight man, though he seems good at his job.
-
Nobody is going to boo the number one prospect after his first 4 games. They wouldn’t even do that in Philly.
-
Why not? Our bullpen has been crushed the last few days. If he gets out of this less than 90 he should be back out there.
-
I think I saw burgers for $22 on Friday so $20 wouldn’t surprise me. The Charleston Riverdogs had a great dog that was very similar looking for $10 back in 2015 when I was down there. Well worth it.

My two thoughts are A-Hyde also seemed upset in that incident and B-while I didn’t hear Ben’s comments, I’m sure he gets good info from the locker room and wouldn’t just speculate wildly. I’m also CERTAIN that he didn’t simply “forget” that pitch com exists as one poster postulated.
