9 PA, 0-7, 2 HBP

 

Which is on pace for a full season with 630 PA's in which he would be hit by a pitch 140 times.

 

I'd pay to see that.

Schafer will go deep here.  It will justify Molitor.

 

I'm mildly drunk too.

If Gardy were managing and he played Shafer and Beresford night after night we would accuse him of playing mediocre players like he himself had been ... Molitor, by comparison, should be playing future Hall of Famers. I don't know. Not my best post. 

 

In 3 years Terrance Gore has 18 career stolen bases

and

not one single base hit.

 

/// 19

 

Every time we play the Royals and he PR I instinctively look him up to see if he has a hit yet.

And let it be known his first hit (likely an over the fence home run) will be against the TWINS.

You're acting rational again.  You really need to stop that behavior and accept the reality of the futility.

I'm somewhat bitter that Molitor has finally managed to make me feel relieved that a hitter with 42 home runs was not asked to bunt.

 

When a player has 42 home runs, the only correct sign for a bunt is a burning bush.

I will add ... man, am I prolific tonight ... that the new rule against take-out slides at second base has really cleaned up the game. Does anyone know if league-wide double plays are up this year?

Oh great here comes Tonkin!

 

So Logan Schafer is batting 5th tonight.

 

It's pretty impressive how each day brings something new to represent just how awful this season has been.

I don't see many games anymore this year, but every time I check in and see him, I think of all the ABs ABW II could have been taking this whole blasted time.

I stand corrected!

Exactly!

Buxton goes deep this inning.

A walk. Close enough.

He went shallow last time, i take it?

 

I'm rooting for Beresford to knock him in. But your way works too.

I will second that!

Ooh!

 

That's deep.

 

I like it.

Suzuki GIDP this at bat.

Suzuki pinch-hitting for the first baseman. Is Vargas hurt? What is going on here?

Get Schafer in there!!!

 

FYI:

 

Schafer batted lead-off in his final game with the Lancaster Barnstormers back on May 31st.

You're welcome.

 

Leadoff for Lancaster sounds like a good spot in the lineup for him.

Brooks Pounders. Best baseball name ever. Let's make him pay for that!

Nice call.

Total System Failure!

Brooks Pounders. He and Buddy Boshers could be the cornerstones of the silly bullpen.

Buxton must run, damn it.

I like Total Raisin Bran...

Suzuki pinch hitting for Vargas - more assinine managing. 

Buxton must run, damn it.

I'd vote for him in a heartbeat, but it might be too late to get on the ballot in some states.
