    when you don't have consistency in both playing time and/or are switched around a lot in the batting order it can lead to taking a batter out of his rhythm - or comfort zone. If you don't agree I don't really care.

    3 more runs would make me completely slightly more comfortable

    I guess we all agree that Diaz needs to be sent down.

    Oakland leads Seattle 1-0 in the first.

    Toronto trailing 5-3 bottom of 9th.

    Nope, but I think he should catch that ****ing ball next time....and the 98 times after that.

    Who said I didn’t agree with your definition of comfort? I just want to know who you think is being negatively impacted? Diaz/Chas seem to be having career years despite the “discomfort.”

    I would have said Bregman but he’s turned into Mr. August again…Astros now with 5 guys with greater than a .830 OPS, and have a chance to get them all to .900 (nobody in baseball has that).

    Every player is allowed to drop 1 of 100 easy popups.

    Just catch the rest.

    Rain tonight and a bit early, should be fine...may be delayed a bit to let things dry in the morning? No reason game won't be played.

    ETA: oh hell, it's changed from overnight to in the early afternoon tomorrow. Later PM looks good
