    Does Murphy truly believe he can use Ashby EVERYDAY?
  2. Sugarrayray
    I tell ya, Murph never used to do this, but this stacking 3 lefties in a row, knowing you’re not going to pinch hit for them, is a terrible idea. Absurd.
  3. Sugarrayray
    I think instead of trotting Woody back out or trying to see if he can get Grant Andershot’s arm to fall off, Murph should just see if he can get a few innings out of Hall. Gotta see if he can ever be more than mop up duty.

    Haha. Dumdum Contreras would have had an easy out at home.

    It infuriates me that they waited til 75 + pitches in to steal a strike with that curveball. I know it may not be a great pitch, or the metrics may not be high on it, but Woody is insane if he thinks he is just going to be able to cruise through lineups throwing all fastballs and changeups. In order to do that throwing 91, you need Maddox level command. He needs to use his full arsenal strategically to keep them guessing. And what happened when he finally did? He whiffed the batter on 3 pitches.

    Man I love me some SANCHISE

    I love to see Lara get some love. I know everyone is obsessed with power and there’s two things in regards to that with Lara: 1) As we’ve seen with Turang and Frelick, to different extents, a lot of talented, athletic prospects see their power become at least passable as they enter their mid 20s. In Turang’s case it appears it will get to above average. 2) More importantly, if a player is an elite defender at an important position, being a switch hitter who can hit for average, draw walks, and steal bases is enough, even if they never develop much pop. If Blake Perkins hit 270 with a 360 obp, he would steal 30 plus bags and his defense would do the rest. Add in the fact that he’d most likely win a gold glove playing every day at and that is an awesome player at center field. P.S. I love me some switch hitters.

    Meanwhile I just saw the Cubs get shutout 0-2 by the Angels. I’m happy :)

    Meanwhile I just saw Petr Crow Armstrong try to bunt and 0-2 count and foul out in the 9th inning down 2…..

    Good classic Brewers style win. Now on to rooting for whomever the Angels closer is :)

    Meanwhile the Cubs are lookin like the stalwarts they are.
  12. Sugarrayray
    ??? No room for any nuance huh?? I’m gonna go ahead and disagree with that blanket statement. Maybe usually that is the right move. Very few situations for one move is ALWAYS the right move.
  13. Sugarrayray
    I don’t know about that. Especially with how badly he has been struggling coupled with the fact he is coming in cold off the bench and pinch hitting, I don’t think he should have challenged.
  14. Sugarrayray
    I don’t know…..the times he has gotten into a rhythm he hasn’t been THIS bad. He walks a little, and has some pop. When he’s struggling like this he’s unplayable.
  15. Sugarrayray
    This pinch hitting is unnecessary. Not only Mitchell can’t hit, the Sanchize doesn’t even have huge hitting splits.
  16. Sugarrayray
    When I saw the video of Buckner missing 20 + calls…..it crossed my mind that maybe he thinks he’s doing it in protest, like purposely missing calls.
  17. Sugarrayray
    Has anyone seen the youtube video about how CB Buckner missed 20 calls the other day???
  18. Sugarrayray
    The SANCHIZE!!!!!
  19. Sugarrayray
    Against the lefty sure!
  20. Sugarrayray
    Power to us Luddites! RE the challenge system. I think the things is that for every pitch overturned like the one you mention, there’ll be about 15 obvious ones that were necessary, and hopefully throughout the LONG system, the good outweighs the bad quite a bit.
  21. Sugarrayray
    There was a challenge that at-bat and it got overturned; Gameday probably stumbled over that.
  22. Sugarrayray
    I think the Ortiz thing makes a little more sense. Murphy just flat out doesn’t trust him to make good swing decisions. He had an at-bat yesterday that was just atrocious. He has been off to a better start this year though. I wonder if Murph intentionally just gave him a hard day off. The Perk thing is just beyond frustrating though. If you are gonna trust him to pinch hit, you put him in the situation he has a better chance to succeed at 100 times out of 100. Lastly, if he knew he wasn’t going to pinch hit for those lads, he shouldn’t have stacked 3 lefties in a row like that. Very poorly done.
  23. Sugarrayray
    Does anyone have a clue why Murph opted to use Perk against a righty instead of the lefty by pinch hitting for Mitchell? Perk is far better from the right side. Furthermore Mitchell can’t hit…..I am beyond perplexed.
  24. Sugarrayray
    Last two swings by Lockridge looked like AAA fodder to me. Time for Perk to make up for his folly.
  25. Sugarrayray
    As putrid as Sproat has been, a couple things I am bummed about - This ump has been equally as bad. Really don’t think it’s a good idea to have Quero start his first game with an equally big start for Sproat. The Sanchize dropped a pick off at first that would have been an out. Perk inexplicably had his worst jump of his career and let a pop fly drop. All this to say, aside from the double play, Sproat got zero help from anybody.
