Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Neato is a big vecro strap adjustor between pitches.And a leadoff double!
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 =Fman99 post_id=64493 time=1621299119 user_id=86]How does every fucking opponent with an ERA of 6+ put this lineup into Operation Shutdown? I'm about to throw a fit.
The Hot Corner Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Lead off double by Nido. McCann pinch-hitting for Reid-Foley. At least he can't ground into a double play in this situation.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 So, do you bunt here?I not only want to bunt, but I'm ready to send Stro' out there to pinch-run.
Fman99 Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 I want James McCann leaning into every pitch, like Rudy from Bad News Bears.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Yeah, Ronnie's right. Lee should be running the bases here.

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 We have a competent bunter in captivity!
bmfc1 Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Author Posted May 17, 2021 If you think that McCann sucks, and he does, then you will agree with this column:https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/james-mccanns-awful-start/https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/james-mccanns-awful-start/[bLOCKQUOTE]I'm not going to complicate this: pitchers aren't really attacking him that differently...The struggles feel more like McCann's problem as opposed to something the opposition is doing to him....He doesn't have a strong enough track record to believe he has a good chance to come out of this with time and the already fragile plate skills paired with the sharp groundball increase don't bode well for a return to anything resembling 2019-20. [/bLOCKQUOTE]McCann says, "Bite me, Fangraphs!"
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Bringing the infield in could jack Lindor up to a .230 hitter
The Hot Corner Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Who was that guy that hit that RBI double? I swear, it looked like McCann. My eyes must be playing tricks on me.
The Hot Corner Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Lindor works a walk. Need a good at bat here by Alonso.
The Hot Corner Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Nice stolen base by Lindor. removes the possibility of a DP.
The Hot Corner Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Alas, Pete goes down swinging. ow, walking Dom to pitch to Pillar. Fine with me.

kcmets Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Holy fuck, Pillar down and bleeding bad.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 'Game delayed to clean up blood' is not a phrase you want to hear.
Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 What kind of craziness is it that you want to take your pitcher out and you're not allowed to?

Edgy MD Site Manager Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 I haven't seen a pall thrown over a game like this since the Beltran/Cameron collision.
Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted May 17, 2021 Posted May 17, 2021 Nice no-fuss inning by Jay O. Reese
