New lock picking lawyer video...1:51 I guess it isn't much of a lock.

Nats crew is lending a hand.

Naw when Sisco wasn't hitting last year he was still bad with the glove.

That Holaday is a defensive liability!

Did he? Wasn't watching. Back in the day he was 99+ pretty much every fastball.

With Judge and Stanton both out they'd probably only win 18 out of 20. All the O's have to do is win those first two.

Whoohoo bring on the Yankees.

Good point, if they didn't have that third catcher they could carry three relief pitchers Hyde would never use. I think the only reason they are running with three is that Holaday was going to opt out if they didn't promote him. I guess they figure that having him around for emergencies is worth the roster spot with the expanded roster.

Of course he doesn't throw that hard anymore. Still pretty hard and that slider can sure be pretty.

Don't really have another option.

It's a quiet 536.

I am shocked, just shocked that both Stanton and Judge are hurt again. They might be too large to hold up.

I'd prefer it but you have to go with the best overall package.

Right, I was making a broad comparison.. Shocked BP was that tepid on Hays.

Buck ran some pretty questionable gloves out there in left and right field. You don't need me to provide a list do you?

Also no much value in having a defense guy in left at OPACY. What is he going to get to that an average guy won't?

Hyde hasn't been using one so yea, I don't see why he needs two.

Because goodness knows they can't use Akin. ?

I figured Altuve alone explained the drop.

And with the umping we have seen this season you might just get walked.

And that would include not swinging at strikes if they are not in your "damage zone".

Kinda like what Hays did a few years ago.

K rate isn't everything. You can be better off swinging and missing than you are making weak contact on a pitch you shouldn't have swung at.
