Oh snap, RISP.

Wow, Solano, if that had even been a fastball, that wouldn't have been a strike.

SoLOLano

nice swing Solano.

 

:barf

Lol poor Solano

I think .280-.290 was a realistic expectation heading into this year. You can argue protection but he didn't get much last year, and people are pitching to him more than some would like to admit.

 

And yet... at the time, you chose not to prove it.

 

Why use numbers and evidence when you can use your Vulcan photographic memory?The numbers say he's getting pitched around. Watching the games says they're pitching right at him. It is more a case of various teams pitching around him, whereas the majority have not, And he has still sucked.

Hechavarria probably has no shot.

Oh well!

crap, I have a flight in the AM, are we going to score at all?

That is gonna be a gif on fangraphs tomorrow. Solano is the worst

Bunting to get Solano and hech up probably doesn't work 98 percent of the time

Dunn in for a second inning. Game over guys.

That's just a vague impression though unless you can prove it. Aside from the fact that Stanton has sucked ass big time and people are emotionally pissed about it, you can't remember every pitch and every AB and then factor in the different teams. It's flawed unless you can prove it somehow.

I hope so. Don't really wanna watch our offense again

What is wrong with Redmond?

Qualls in...game over.

What is wrong with Redmond?

 

Doesn't wanna watch our offense either

Billy Butler, pride of Wolfson High School just down the road from me.

Ok good job.

Great another inning

It's flawed unless you can prove it somehow.Data is flawed too. You can look at pitches out of the strike zone as an indicator of being pitched around, but when a hitter consistently struggles against a particular pitch (ie, sliders low and away), you are going to go right at him with that particular pitch in an effort to get him out. That isn't pitching around someone to me, that taking advantage of the hitters weakness, which is something any smart pitcher does.

Wonder why the KC manager only leaves their closer in for one inning?!?!?

That'll do, Jake. That'll do.

Mathis bomb coming up

Nice bunt Mathis
