All it took was committing to go oppo as he did last year. But this year he added a twist by moving a couple inches off the plate. It has made it much more difficult for pitchers to beat him inside when they know he is trying to go oppo. Has made all the dif
Well I will give you this, glove side plays are not Moreland's strong suit, not over a career. I don't think he will rise to GG 1st base again in his career. I would give that a 50-50 shot for Mitch. 10 chances, 5 successes.
That was a really hard play for Mitch to make. Far from a sure thing. If Chavis had thrown the ball instead of flipping it Gurriel would not have even come to the plate.
Think I will start late supper for me and my kid getting home from work. Usually the best way for us to score runs is for me to get the heck away from the TV.
Way too many holes 1-6 in this batting order and when JD is not in, its Mookie getting on and waiting for a hurricane wind to drive him around to home plate.
He shook the arm a bit after he winced also. He may have the flu as well. But I doubt he was throwing like that in the pen or they would not have let him take the mound. Slider velo was nowhere. If he was not throwing like that in his warmups then it stands to reason something happened on the mound itself.
Thats the point. He would have been throwing cow dung out in his warmups with the flu. If he is that weak, you don't put him on the mound. I don't believe it. I will hope for it. But I don't believe it. Plus Price winced and shook his arm. What the hell does the flu have to do with that?
