No, and I'm not sure how you could have even interpreted that from my quote. I'll start talking baseball when you make a single rational baseball point. Deal? That, my friend, is an incredible deal! Talk [rational] baseball please.
I was wondering myself why Shoemaker was out there in the 8th. They must not trust their bullpen, but I'll take it. Over .500 here we come.
It's dangerous putting more men on but you almost have to take your chances with the other guys in the lineup after Correa.
agreed. But I think you only HAVE to put Altuve on to set up the DP and walk the best hitter in the process. With Correa, there is an argument where you pitch to him and hope for a DP. And an argument that he hasn't been great this year like Altuve...though he has been good, and very good lately.
Altuve has been our most dangerous hitter all year (even though Correa is hot now). Correa's foot injury also might make a DP easier. The right play is to pitch to Rasmus, IMO.
