Holy cow just looked at the high leverage and clutch splits for Perez. Abysmal. Needless to say Perez leading off an inning is not the same as Perez in a big spot.
What a pathetic display of ineptitude by our offense time and time again in scoring situations. Might as well start rolling the dice getting thrown out at home since they're not otherwise going to score anyway. Awful AB by Kratz. And if Schoop cannot at least put the ball in play there he has no purpose on the playoff roster.
It’s almost like he isn’t a real 2B or something. He's been fine. He's not going to save everything just like any other player. That was a very bad throw.
I'm not. He only threw 20 pitches yesterday and this is the playoffs. Plus an off day tomorrow. Yeah there would be no reason for Hader to be unavailable after 20 pitches one day. This isn't June.
Of course. Results aren't always indicative of performance. Chacin definitely didn't have his best stuff today, but 5 scoreless? Heck yeah, we will take it. No style points needed in October.
