Damn. Yordan couldn't make it through a 4 game series without having to rest? Too ******* early for this ****.
It's too early to rest the guy who had nagging injuries throughout last season and spring training? It's fine. It's not Yordan's fault the lineup is missing 2 other regulars.
Yordan had 7 spring training ABs and is in mid season form. Unreal. But… agree with Dusty, they need to rest him to get those legs in shape for the season
I criticized Dusty a lot last year for his handling of player load management, but the man knows what he's doing.
For those that foolishly thought the bigger bases weren't going to affect stolen bases much, the numbers are in. Nearly triple over the first 3 days vs last year and even more importantly 87% success rate vs 65% last year. The 87% being inserted into analytics is going to scream ATTEMPT MORE OFTEN.
Fans at MMP fooled me yet again. Thought it was out fo sho'. Douchinger shouldn't be allowed to shuffle his feet like that before the pitch is delivered for the integrity of the game.
Was just dropping by to say that the motion he makes before coming set is one of the weirdest and most asinine things I can think of seeing from a pitcher.
