KC up 2-0 in the 2nd inning.
More interesting defensive alignments. I guess that LaStella is healthy enough to play 1st base but Belt is not? Would love to see Pederson at the dh spot and anyone else playing the outfield.

Giants have stranded 5 on base in the 1st 2 innings. That signals either a very long day of futility for the offense or signs that they are about to bust out.

They got on with dinks and doinks with 2 outs, then were unable to do anything about it. My sense is they are funking or the SP is doing a good job.

For the life of me, I do not understand why that is not a sac fly.

That’s crazy.

yesterday, La Stella became the first player in MLB history to get multiple RBI in one game without an official AB. He had 2 PA with 2 sac flys.

Saw that this morning. Pretty crazy.

He has no HR power, but he has just about every other tool an OF needs to be a successful player.


He may not win ROY, but he is looking more and more like a legit keeper.
