the home run by Bauers not withstanding, the ball doesn't seem to be carrying today. There have been numerous fly balls I thought had a chance to be gone.

Yelich should not be batting in this game against a veteran lefty. That was a poor lineup decision.

Both balls Riley has hit have been on the barrel and they were not even close to the warning track.

He’s hit one 100+ mph LD for an out and hit a hard ground ball

yep. even Henderson thought it was gone off the bat of Riley when he made contact.

Remember when a lot of people here wanted Bauers gone last year and I was one of the only supporters of him?

Fun times

I'm sorry, but 1st and 3rd with nobody out, swing the ******* bat.

There def wasn’t many. Most people wanted him gone just like Joey Ortiz earlier this year 

[BCF]

Nice job getting Perez out after 4 innings

Defend him all you want. He’s 0 for 2 again today … he’s washed.

Nothing about my post suggests Murphy sucks. Maybe it is the phrase. I’m not 12 so I no longer say sucks. It was a bad decision to start Yeli in today’s lineup against  a crafty lefty. I stand by that statement.

What was Joey Ortiz numbers the first two months? What was Caleb Durbin’s numbers in Boston the first 3 months?!

You can look that up but you already know the answer. Both are much younger than Yelich. He was a great player. He no longer is a decent player. We need to move on. BTW … I’m a huge fan of the two players you referenced. My posts will back that up the last two years.

Poor was the word you used and you rip on Murphy every single game if wera behind.  So take your bipolar medication.

One player you say is “washed” the other player people are mad when he’s not in the lineup yet both players have nearly identical stats this season 

[BCF]

Contreras been in a hot streak the last week. 4-4 yesterday and 2-3 already today

Yeah, we are really reaching for ways to play the bad luck card with Yelich if we’re giving him kudos for a ground ball under 75 MPH.

Over the last week, William Contreras is hitting .478 (11 for 23) with a pair of doubles, a home run, and 6 RBIs

[adambr2]

That was impressive wind velocity on Yelich’s swing and miss for strike 3.

[RobertCrawley]

That slider down and in is like kryptonite to Yeli.
