    Sanchez, you are in fact allowed to slide at home plate

    If we are getting the RBI producing version of Correa (so far, so great), then look out.

    This is huge.

    No wonder Walker has a negative WAR.

    Walker has generally been on the upswing for a while now, but he has entire games where he looks completely overmatched.
    Baseball, man.

    Walker and Diaz pissing themselves was entirely predictable.

    Only feel good about Pena through Correa right now

    I was mentally yelling at him for watching that first pitch non-sliding 88mph slider go right down the middle. He made up for it though.

    can't really shiet on walker there.

    he should be looking at a 3-0 instead of a 2-1 count.

    If you have a high velocity fastball that you can locate at the top of the zone and a good slider to mix in…he’s an extremely uncompetitive AB

    Would love to know if he’s always been bad at hitting high fastballs or if this is something new…

    I like the stick, but I don’t like how loose he seems to play.

    Not great in the field, seems to lack concentration.
    I don’t really like the antics at the plate. He probably should have listened and slid to the outside of the plate when he scored. Seems to be a bit of a wildcard. Wish he’d be more disciplined. He can rake though.

    Yep.

    He keeps hitting like this and I can put up with a reasonable amount of shenanigans.

    Insanely terrible read on that ball. Thank God he caught it. McCormick should not be in CF.

    Got a late jump because he was fighting the sun but definitely made up for it
