    I just saw the highlights. Where is Uriel? And why does Abreu look like Uriel's gangster twin? And button that shirt up

    Maybe?

    Chas hit his OPS peak on 8/21... and has seen a slow decline since (that went rapid towards the end of September). Is he being pitched to differently? Is it just water finding its level given that nobody expected him to be a +.900 OPS guy? Is it just a mini-slump that he may bust out of any day now?

    I'm all for Chas being in there everyday... and was very happy he was there in game 1. Dubon wasn't bad yesterday, and hasn't been bad when given chances as of late, but I'd much rather have Chas' bat as much as possible.
    agreed… at this point when he’s choosing between dividing playing time between Alvarez, Brantley, McCormick with occasional Dubon… Chas is the odd man out.

    I certainly am not arguing your sentiment. I just wondered if you saw something specifically with him that suggested he was being pitched to differently or is possibly limited somewhat by an injury. I also wonder the same things when Yordan slumps.

    What is a Uriel? If all you get out of watching sports is shirt buttons then sports may not be for you.

    Honestly, I think he doesn't break out until next round (when we need him to), but I like your thinking
