2 questions:
1) Assuming Price stays healthy and continues to pitch like this, would you be happier if he opted out or if he stayed?
2) Under the same assumptions, do you think the Yankees would take him this offseason for 4 years/127 mill?
I think the basic principle is you don't pinch-hit for them unless you're behind, or if you're tied or up one and the bases are loaded, that type of thing - strictly situational.
Price doesn't have to say a word about it publicly. The fact that Leon is catching him every time out tells you everything you need to know - or it should.
Absolutely. It's usually an intricate game being played between the pitcher/catcher and the hitter. It's not too often you see a pitcher just trying to throw it past the hitter anymore.
Well, maybe Leon wanted to discuss what pitch to throw, and maybe he called a bad pitch. Or maybe Machado guessed right on the pitch. Maybe it was a good call by Leon but Price caught too much plate. Do you know which it was?
There is no doubt that the alabaster-faced billionaire has been a godsend.
The best thing about Henry, besides his money, is that he's a legit baseball junkie who wants to win as many titles as possible.
