Man I’m all for getting on base by a HBP but Smith needs to be smart about it. That one got him in the wrist, very easy to severely damage that area.
It was a 3-2 count and a ball. Would have got to take the base whether it hit him or not.
Like his grit though
The radio guys said he just couldn't get out of the way of that one

Jose Acuna is putting together a decent start to his season. 1.047 OPS over 60 plate appearances. 4 Hrs, 4 doubles, 9 BB and 7 stolen bases.

They said Josh Smith's exit velocity on his out was at 48 mph. LOL!

For the month of May there is no pitcher of higher stature

Maybe it is tough to admit a mistake in judgement. I was for adding Perez so he could eat innings and at best become a #3 starter on our team that lacks pitching —-bridging time for others to come up like Winn

I way undersold him.

Same. I was hoping for 150 innings of 9-9 with a 4.50 ERA. He is definitely surpassing that

Seager never smiles or looks happy.
he hit the HR and immediately went to the tablet to look at the sequence of pitches, Calhoun followed and went to the tablet. when Garcia hit his homer Seager walked down the dugout to congratulate him because he was so intent on the tablet

with the break on Yarbrough's normal pitches by the time Smith realized it wasn't going to break it was too late

With his hurt wrist and a LHP on the mound tomorrow wouldn’t be surprised if Culberson got the start at 3B.
hope not Culberson or Ibanez. maybe release one of them and bring up Duran

I wasn't even expecting that much.
