Let's not forget that they don't always get it RIGHT. Was there ever a more evident "safe call then last week at 2nd base that they f*cked us on?? Making it reviewable doesn't mean they'll get it right. For the most part they're pretty good at check swings.....
With two of our top starting pitchers taking the mound. Its time for some people to look in the mirror and realize this isn't 2017.
Like Astros pitchers, you barely made it a week. Yeah, Verlander is gone and Josh James sucked and everyone in the 'pen not named Ryan Pressly is a rookie but are the bats gonna do something?! ANYTHING?! No? Okay...
Just went to drop James from one of my fantasy teams. It appears I did after his last start. I should tell my wife I dont always make BAD DECISIONS while drunk.
Kyle Tucker is what would happen if Brian Bogusevic and Brett Wallace had a baby. Just give me ONE competitive at bat. How can you be a Top 5 pick and not even hit the ball to left side ever?? He should be embarrassed about that shift that they employ on him every time. Hell, he hits right into it 9/10 times.
Framber not a rookie... he may just have to accept the stopgap bullpen role in all starts other than Greinke (and maybe Javier).
Or let him get through a normal spring training. These guys were not this wild, and him not going max effort shouldn’t have anything to do with his control.
I get where you’re coming from but opponents game plan against him is hard and inside. Tough to inside out 95 at your hands. Also, tough to balance wanting to turn and burn and to take advantage of mistakes over the plate and away.
