    He gets a pass. Outside of Springer he's probably the most timely hitter on the team

    Remember what happened last time the rat got left off a playoff roster? They're afraid he'll rat them out, too.

    As crazy as it sounds, I would have liked to see Yuli bunt in that situation. He hasn't been hitting well, and you put two guys in scoring position with one out. I know they'd never do it, though...

    Gurriel's defense is too valuable. Others are hitting. It's not like we're struggling to score runs.

    Yuli has runners on every time he bats. Every time he fails. Couple of hits in those situations and this is an easy sweep

    Machete needs to drop the hammer. A catcher should have a keen eye for certain pitches when batting.

    The .077 hitter grounds into a double play. Then .200 hitter takes a walk so the .154 hitter can slug. Lol. Baseball in 2020. C'mon Maldo.
