Canha Corn! It has the juice!

How is a team with batters in the heart of their lineup batting .189 and .165 dominating MLB?

[Edgy MD]

I wasn't able to tune in until the fourth, but I like Taijuan's curve tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Pete painting the ceiling on that trip to the plate.

[Willets Point]

Another squandered opportunity.

[kcmets]

Alonso, K Machine!!

Allowing more than 1/2 Run per game less than the next best club (NYM btw) at least partially explains things. It's a gap as large as the gap between the 2nd & 8th best rates.

[Edgy MD]

A 92-pitch exit for Taijuan.



Hate to hit the pen early in game one of a tough series.

[Edgy MD]

Hate to hit see the pen walk the bases full early in game one of a tough series.

[Frayed Knot]

So what was John Sterling's HR call on those occasions when Joey Gallo actually did connect as a MFY?

Was it, "Oh Joey Gallo, you really murdered that one" ?







probably not

[Willets Point]

Geez that was too close for comfort.

Lindor and Ruf both getting off the schneid the last two innings is refreshing.

[Frayed Knot]

As they'd say in London's west end: It's 'eath 'embree on to pitch

[Willets Point]

Time for McCann to do something big.

And now Escobar!



Monkeys being shed from backs all around the diamond!



Could. McCann. Join. In?

Nope.

[kcmets]

Having McCann fail in big spots is quite deflating sometimes.

[Lefty Specialist]

McCann is the definition of schneid. He needs to be gone next year.



Pouring in NJ right now, so they're running out of time here.

[Edgy MD]

Too many Will Smiths in this league.

Are they all slap hitters?

[Chad ochoseis]

Fux.

[Lefty Specialist]

This just is not a competitive bullpen come playoff time.

[Edgy MD]

Heck of a spot for Hunter's return.

[Edgy MD]

Did Timmy play that or fake it?

[Frayed Knot]

It was far too risky to try, but Canha could have maybe possibly allowed that fly ball to fall in order to try for the old 7-5-4 DP

It would depend on how close to runner on 1st was hanging close to the bad (which I couldn't see) and would take a helluva lotta guts to try it.

[Frayed Knot]

LAD batters have been going from 0-2 to 3-2

Nimmo goes from 3-0 to K
