What is the Kahnfidence level?

Broadcasting from a luxury suite.

"Kyle Schwarber has 37 homeruns and a negative WAR. How is that even possible?"



Where do I start?

[Frayed Knot]

It's a repeating pattern that's lasted most of the year: get a couple runners on and no one after that even hits a fair ball.

K, Foul PO, K-Looking

[Frayed Knot]

And that didn't take long.

[MFS62]

The last FOUR hitters in the lineup are under the Mendoza Line.

We need some replacement players for our replacement players.

If I want to see some scoring action, they make me want to watch a soccer match.

This is a good place--- exploring Dante Bichette's 1999 "Worst Great Season":

Incredible, more HR than singles (36)

[Frayed Knot]

I'll start worrying about what the fill-in guys at the bottom of the line are doing (guys who don't have enough PT to even have meaningful stats) just as soon as someone in the top half of the lineup has something even approaching am important hit.

The bottom third of the lineup is a lusty 2-for-9, they're pretty tough to face as a fan.



I love the bunt attempt, McNutter, but probably not with two out and the bases empty.

[Frayed Knot]

Runs scored: 2, 0, 1, 3, 3, 3, 0 over the past week

while facing not a single top line pitcher

[Frayed Knot]

Say goodnight Gracie.

This club's not scoring two runs unless the game goes at least 30 innings and the clubhouse kid pitches the last six.

[MFS62]

Down 2-0.

This team is doomed.

They couldn't get two runs if they redeemed all their airline mileage points.

[Edgy MD]

Well, that was different.

[MFS62]

Vientos finally found a pitcher he could hit?

Later

[Fman99]

Pathetic

[Frayed Knot]

Fulfilling the just enough to lose requirement.

[kcmets]

Another disappointing loss, but it was a quickie in under 2:30.
