Catchers don't have wild pitches, they have passed balls. Wild pitches are on the pitcher.

I know that. But he was a lot better last year at blocking them. And a lot of the time this year it’s been terrible form. He didn’t even try and get the glove down to block that correctly.

Bradish has one of the highest spin rates, when the ball hits the dirt it does funky things. 

[Roy Firestone]

Can we PLEASE get some damned runs?

More laziness from Adley

I bet after the year they tell us he had an injury all year and was bravely struggling through it.  They never tell us the truth with the injury stuff.   Something has to explain his horrible throws to second base.  It might be minor enough to not mess with his hitting too much but making his throws god awful

[justD]

What the heck is with all these passed balls?  I know they said you’re going to get a lot of these balls in the dirt with a sinker pitcher like a Bradish but AR used to be such a good blocker.  Nothing got past him. 
 

Edit: Yes I know they’re technically wild pitches.

Or maybe tired. Who knows.

I dont think we will score tonight...we are just hideous offensively...

[Alasdaire]

I still think this is the sophomore slump for Adley. He's being asked to do more than pretty much any other player in baseball. Didn't even get a reset over the all star break because he was in the derby. He'll adjust.

[Mooreisbetter27]

Come on Tony

[Uli2001]

Park one, Santander.

[Billy F-Face3]

Ok. Finally a runner on board. Aldey made Efflin throw more pitches at the very least. 

[Mooreisbetter27]

Ugh.
