7 inning game, bases loaded top of the 4th with no out.

That is a huge moment. I think Dom is better than McCann, current struggles included.

You can't tell me that Nido vs McCann is a massive difference offensively.

[duan]

in fairness to stroman that's a great bit of work.

here's hoping he finishes the job.

I'll counter with: LHP, bad sun field, not a faster runner. no outs, taking out the catcher early in Game 1 of a DH (even a shorter one)

Go with Peraza so!

- also Nido has to be able to do 4 innings plus 7 - or if he does the final 4 then McCann can start Game 2.





Quality work Marcus Stroman.

[Edgy MD]

Mr. Stroman threw a man of an inning there.

[duan]

should he have hit?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Maybe they shoulda ph smith for Lindor

Peraza owns a 79 career OPS+ and 2 ABs this year.

We've soured on McCann (coming off 120 & 143 OPS+ seasons) awfully quickly haven't we?

[ashie62]

All of two Met hits. Pathetic.

[duan]

I'm not saying that he can't turn it around, but he's looking terrible right now that was our best opportunity to score multiple runs.

[duan]

and now lindor can't throw.

Sandy's offseason so far:

May--YAY!

Everyone else--ARE YOU FRIGGING KIDDING ME?

[duan]

well Marcus didn't deserve that.

[bmfc1]

Lindor--GO FUCK YOURSELF.

At least Nimmo is still on the active roster and isn't that what counts?

[duan]

that's true. the 3 man bench plus injured Nimmo wouldn't be my plan and I did point out the craziness of the makeup of the 40 man before.

But 7 inning games are different. It isn't just the 'length' its the fact that the chances of getting into the weaker relievers is reduced and so on. I think you have to see bases loaded and nobody out, when you're down by two runs as an extremely high leverage moment.

[duan]

see - Nido could have done that ....

[kcmets]

Two hits, kinda quattlebummed.

This team is boring, overpaid, poorly managed, poorly run, a shitshow.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

And that's their good points. My igts also suck

[Ceetar]

I did not enjoy that one.

[Fman99]

More of a Quattlewhimper than a Quattlebang.

No idea, but it's a pretty small sample size when emotions and rooting interest are tossed.

Of course, you can't send an interpreter to the mound and have that "not count" as a mound visit. I know that and I'm not paid by MLB. Mound visits should only be allowed to remove a pitcher. No more of this "let's stop the game so everyone can watch us have a meeting in the middle of the playing field" garbage that only is permitted in baseball.

[Edgy MD]

Well, honestly, business meetings in the middle of the field happen 90 times per game in football.



I don't mind mound conferences. It's certainly kind of bullshit when they are used as a stalling tactic, but I think MLB is attacking the wrong thing there.
