  1. Be great, but I'd take a long fly ball out RN. A 2nd run is huge. Then the Manfred man can score in the bottom half without tying the game.
  2. Well, he was pitched tough. Only 3 of the 4 pitches were middle middle.
  3. The good thing is we get to face Cole game 2, so the Yankees will need to go to their pen early. ?
  4. I was like "Sanchez! Don't make that throw.....oh. Never mind. WTF Guzman??"
  5. I'd have preferred Pagan. Seriously. If he's "on" he can get K's.
  6. I guess there's nothing to lose, but that was a ridiculous challenge.
  7. All of those things can result in an RBI, and like your Trout/Rosario comparison, completely misses the point. Getting a one off RBI because you blooped a single over a drawn in infield doesn't mean you've driven in runs consistently throughout the year. It doesn't mean much. Having Miranda lead the team in RBI at 60 something in September means something. I also didn't say RBI were the ONLY offensive statistic that matter. I just said at the end of the season they were the most important to me. Trout scored more runs than Rosario in 2019, that counts too. Just not as much.
  8. For example...Twins get a base hit with a runner in scoring position...but do not score.
  9. My bad on 2019. You are correct. And yes. I'll take RBI at the end of the season over any other offensive stat. I'd say in this case the exception proves the rule.
  10. Not everything that can be counted, counts. Not everything that counts, can be counted. How can a baserunning blunder that awful happen? Things like that cost games, or win games. I realize we need analytics. But we also need to find a way to play effing baseball.
  11. Rosario didn't have more RBI than Trout in either of those years.
  12. This is true. I like guys who get on base. But someone still needs to drive them in. At the end of the game, they decide who won based on who crossed home plate the most, not who got to first base most.
  13. It's still on the manager. Why was Hamilton in the game in the 6th inning?
  14. He's in the game because for some reason Billy Hamilton was in the game, causing a PH by Kepler who can't play the field apparently, meaning someone had to go into the game. Gordon to the OF, Palacios to 2b.
