Yaz has looked very nice this year. Maybe last season was the aberration.

He was hurt. All year. Didn't say anything but his hand was phuked.

Apparently, this team can HIT.

Or, it's Coors.

This.

Always this.

Even when the other option is true as well…

Hopefully, his hitting well get better too (up to last year's production).

Hmmmm….

interesting…

Pitchers need to learn that making a play at the hotshot is no longer a good play. They gotta let those go through.

I understand reflexes play a part in that, but it needs to be hammered into them that outside of self preservation, they need to let those go.

Too early to be too concerned about that. Maybe a slight platoon with Stars could help, but I think he has absolutely earned the primary spot.

 

[tzill]

Cobb's gotta be done here, yes?

 

[tzill]

Alvarez or Haarleen?

 

[tzill]

Neither! Guess with a big lead...

 

[tzill]

I mean: good to show faith in your pitcher, but damn. He was done two batters ago.

 

[tzill]

phuking hell
WHY Kap, WHYYYYY

 

[tzill]

I just phuking HATE Coors Field.

Is ten going to be enough? Somehow I doubt it.
