    Bottom of the order, I get putting in Enoli. You just don't figure he'd be that wild.

    Worst thing Paredes could do after the team snatches momentum back.

    Scrubb is a terrible choice in this situation.

    He’s been wild all year. Especially on the road. His issues could be entirely mental.

    Paredes has pitched 2 2/3 innings this season with 8 walks.

    Scrubb brings sanity back.

    That throw home by Straw, lollypop 30 feet over the cutoff man, was one of the worst things I've seen today. You have to hold the runner at 2B.

    The only thing worse was the runner at 2B not tagging to 3rd.

    Nice work, Scrubb.

    In my ideal lineup, it goes Yordan Yuli Tucker Correa straw. Yuli sits between two lefties. The way Baker has it, correa sits between Yuli and Tucker. To me, it’s about getting Tucker more ABs and him driving in Yuli who seems to be totally on this year.
