No where else to put him
I mean his infielding and arm is better up close... everyone knows he doesnt have the long distance theres no way his position replacement cant play better LF lol

Feel like his defensive liability out there evens out his great numbers at the plate.

This game will be where the astholes start their descent
I hope so... 3 game sweep... make it a 2 game lead...... 12-5 road trip... mid last half season within range everyone heating up?

It comes down to see how Miller rebounds after the 26th... and if Kirby can get his S@#$ together

Did they just say Cal trying to go for stolen bases for Catcher? Clearly they didnt look up the stats at all... there is no way Cal is even passing Ivan in that slot at #5

Also on that note.. I was born in 81... so John Wathan... this dude.. was a base stealing mfer early in his years.... clearly the catch role took a toll on his knees after his first 3 seasons

28 and 26 SBs ??!?!?! as a Catcher? gd

Good overall game. Shame La Pietro couldn't finish 7. Oh well, still a great start.

Broke it open in the 8th starting off with some small ball. Walk, sac bunt, RBI single. Love the old school ball. :)

Roz and Garv go yard for the first scores, then tack on 4 more bottom 8.

Good start to the 2d half. Always nice to beat the Astros.

Great start to the second "half". Castillo was fantastic, and lots of guys came through in the 8th to give them a comfortable lead going into the 9th.

Bit of a side note, Bazardo has improved so much since last season. Kudos to him.

I feel like some people just put in the effort into the off season and some coast..... Bazardo wants that glory

Well, I almost got away with it, but it was mentioned above a couple of times. Mea culpa.
