Yep, in reality this team is basically what most thought they were. A .500ish team that can sneak into the playoffs because of the terrible division but realistically doesn't have a chance to advance in the postseason barring some true overperformance by some starters.
unfrickingbelieveable. Can't even be upset at AK there. Took 2 good pitches and then crushed a hard ground ball right to the SS up the middle. Also, I can't WAIT for that shift to be outlawed
Feels like Rocco is overthinking this one a bit trying to get the perfect matchups in a game you're losing. Pulled Pagan, Duffey, and Thielbar all between 10-15 pitches, and we still have 8 outs to get
Oh, and tomorrow we're throwing a soft tossing lefty against a team that crushes lefties and has been terrible lately. Losing this series looks very likely.
