Sucks that Hays has to be in the game vs a RHP, but better safe than sorry with Kjerstad.

Seems like they are afraid to throw inside to him, no clue what the plan is for him.

I don't understand why they don't at least try to throw the ball down or up and in. If you miss there you miss there, wasting pitches off the plate and then throwing over the middle is stupid. You get him out down and up and in.

You cannot throw Judge anything in the middle of the plate, nothing in the middle to either side of the zone. Throw at the bottom of the zone or the top of the zone.

He is who he is until he proves otherwise.

This ump is absolutely horrible. He's calling strikes balls and balls strikes.

Cowser is good eatin'.

I'm holding out hope that they draft a ton of college arms in this draft and hit on a couple of them.

I wouldn't go that far. This is his first full season.

Pretty much any team should make that DP. 98 MPH chest high one hopper to 2B who didn't even need to move and you can't double up a guy with a 26 MPH sprint speed? C'mon.

They are giving GRod the same treatment we gave Gil in NY, lol.

98 is considered a hard hit ball.

The ball was hit 98 MPH off the bat, they should have gotten Soto who runs like Urias.

The failure to turn that DP was a dagger.

Torres the Oriole Killer.

He is literally that slow. 26.8 vs 26.6.

Ben Rice is a power hitter doing pretty well. You probably don't want to keep tempting fate with runners on base for him.

Soto runs as fast as Urias and they can't get him? That failure is on the defense, the ball was definitely hit hard enough.

Verdouchego.

I think the thought is you can't get quality players in trades without them, which is obviously false.

Was looking at his pitches this year, soft tosser, 54% cutter, 32.5% sweeper with a little used CU and CH.

6-day IL, nice! We need Danny back!

13 million for Kimbrel isn't exactly cheap. I don't think we really know what Elias is going to do now that the timer is ticking on all of these guys on the team, they need to win and it's harder to do hoarding guys in AAA until they are 27 and dumpster diving in areas of dire need.

Well, you said he doesn't trade players, you didn't say what quality of player.

He traded a player to Oakland to get Fujinami.
