Good job Jose.
Would really feel good to plate a couple of insurance runs here.
Rounding third and heading for home...
How bout a little Insurance Brandon...
Hoover gets that slightly high and slightly outside pitch a lot.
What is with walking leadoff batters?
The fact you think he is going to play every inning of the playoffs is your first mistake. Your second is if he gets that many PA it means we are scoring so who care who in the line up if the pitching costs us games. He has 51 games this year with 5 or more PA with 4 of those extra inning games which we are 1-3, and the record in those 51 games is 38-13 .745 and .787 in 9 inning games.
For him to get 56 PA and us not to make the WS means its not going to be his fault so who in the hell cares who starts in center if the pitchers completely collapse and cost us several games.
The funniest thing you wrote is saying I don't understand numbers when talking about 4 teams in front of someone and needing to make up 5 games, that's the hardest thing to do in all of baseball, You basically need to win every game you play to pull that off. One has to have no base of reality if they teams are making up 5 games in 20 when the team they are chasing has one of the easiest schedules in all of baseball.
New Rule. Game Thread posts have to be ten words or less. It will take me half an inning to finish that last post.
Whichever pitcher gets through Rizzo, Soriano and Castro...
I love Hoover's mound presence...but not convinced his stuff is matching, but working well and love how he goes about it. He owns it.
