I'd rather have bloop singles than hard line outs.
-
What is the biggest defecit we've overcome this year to win a game? I can't imagine it's three given the lack of offense this year.
-
I recall a lot of guys grousing about Garza getting all that money and stinking out the joint. That doesn't answer my question.
-
We wouldn't talk about it as much if he wasn't getting any regular playing time, but he is. I didn't see anybody calling for everybody to lay off Garza the past two years, but maybe Sogard gets a pass because he's a nice guy. Sogard isn't getting the big salary Garza got. Why should that matter?
-
At least Guerra only gave up one run in his first inning.
-
One last thing before I drop the subject. If CC's reasoning for playing Sogard is wanting him to break out of his slump, why doesn't he give the same consideration to Perez or Villar? I just don't like this strategy of playing your worst hitter out of hope. Play your best options. It might be the difference between a playoff berth and watching the playoffs at home again.
-
If I hear the words "tough luck" or bad luck" one more time when talking about Sogard I'm going to flip my spit.
-
Playing from behind to start the game.

You forgot to put this in blue. I take it the only number you understand is batting average? You probably think Johnathon Villar is off to a pretty good start this year don't you? He's off to a better start than Sogard. I really hate when people use extended stats to make a case because they really mean nothing. You don't get brownie points for hitting a ball long or hard when they result in outs. And it's not just his offense. He has no range as a defender and not nearly as good with the glove as Arcia. We can blame him single handedly for one of the losses to the Cubs because of his defense. Well, him and CC for starting him at shortstop that game. The one thing about stats is, stats lie. Sogard just doesn't belong on a major league roster, and sometimes I wonder if he even belongs on a AA roster.

I think we need to consider the idea that CC is playing Sogard so that he breaks CC's record of consecutive ABs without a hit. I just knew after lastnight he was going to get another start today and not only that, he gets bumped up in the lineup. If CC is counting on the Pirates to continue to pitch to him like he's Barry Bonds, we can look forward to a loss today.
-
The one downer in all this is because Sogard got on base three times and scored twice that'll give CC ammo to start him again tomorrow.
-
When the ump knows it was a bad call True. I just don't like Cervelli that much and wanted to see him get thrown out.
-
Since when does anybody get that much leash arguing balls and strikes?
-
Walk sogard to get to Braun, maybe Vaughn’s thinkin’... I don’t know what the hell hes thinking.
-
That was a bold strategy, Cotton. It didn't pay off for them.
-
What alternate universe am I living in that Sogard walks three times in a game?
-
It was fun while it lasted.
-
Crick's stuff is so nasty even his catcher can't handle his pitches.
-
It's Hader time now!!!
-
I think CC should quit with the Jedi mind trick games and the Brewers put him on the DL already.
-
You would think a pitching staff that manages to walk Sogard twice would have allowed more than one run at this point.
-
Man, Chacin doesn't have much stamina, does he?Will he ever last into the seventh? Runners at the corners with nobody out? It's JJ time.
-
Yeah, not very good strategy by Hurdle, but he got away with it.
