    must be shitty for an opponent to intentionally walk a mvp player just to pitch to another mvp caliber player right after

    I think his zone is out of whack. But I've seen that from a lot of umps. I've seen a lot of umps more "in the zone" but wayyyy less consistent. I appreciate consistency over accuracy if I have to choose.

    I think it's silly that people are complaining about the lack of accuracy (because it's evident with the box) when there is a fair amount of consistency, which you can't really see without a cluster chart of strikes and balls.

    Also feels like people are trying to say that we're facing more bad calls than them, which is untrue...again, because it's been consistent.

    It's a no win for them to walk anyone in this line up.

    "Beginning to think the @astros threw last Saturday's game to the @RedSox just so they could play them in the #ALDS."
