He actually said it was bad before you did?

All he had the audacity to do was ask you to back up your definitive statement about Ortiz with some stats and you couldn’t but claimed victory anyway…  

Back up what? He has a wrc+ of 43. What are we talking about? What is happening? Is Ortiz being horrible a hill you want to die on? Watch the games. If you want stats that prove he sucks how does that work?

[RobertCrawley]

Great pitch, Koenig. 

[areacodes]

Man, the Padres sure like to complain about strike calls that are strikes right after getting a gift of a ball call again.

[RobertCrawley]

Ok, top of the ninth. This is where the magic happens.

By the way average is 100 just in case you need more evidence. You guys gotta chill man.

Just lost my fan duel

[RobertCrawley]

Now he calls a strike at the bottom of the zone.

[HarveysWBs]

Automated. Zone.

Like seriously, should do this yesterday.

[Underachiever]

Dang. 0-8 on lead off hitters with a walk. Hard to rally with that. 

[RobertCrawley]

Nice contact, Yeli.

Back out and go back in to the app again - That fixed it for me earlier.

You said he only got his hits in games that we were up 10 only.  He asked you to back that up… nobody claimed that Ortiz is good… everybody agrees he isn’t good with the bat. 

You start making a straw man about posters claiming Ortiz is good with a bat and then claim victory. That was it.

[Underachiever]

Fans are whiny, too.

The FanDuel app on my TV is wonky. (I'm watching on my computer now.) I read that's a known issue among users.

Jackson chasing off the plate again.

But the city is a great place to visit. The whole area.

He is doing his best Corey Hart impersonation.

The guy made up some stat that his hitting 260 with the big dipper in the northern sky on Tuesdays. Who cares!! He is up twice a night with the bases loaded and can barely put the ball in play. The ridiculous defense of Ortiz has to stop. If you are Mrs Ortiz i apologize. You son isn't any good and should be replaced.

He seemed to have more plate discipline earlier in the year.

[Turning2]

The offense is worrisome. Lukewarm going into the postseason.

He has the lowest BB% on the team. It's been really disappointing this season. 

[RobertCrawley]

Ha ha.

[edfunderburk]

I can’t believe I stayed awake to watch this Packers-like end of game meltdown. Now, even Ortiz proves to be human defensively. Since he has nothing to offer offensively, that is unacceptable. We need to win this frickin’ game.

Another nice easy game for the Brewers tonight.
