As Hawk would say, 3 balls and less than 2 strikes is a lot different mentally than 2 strikes and less than 3 balls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah not mad about the quality of contact there. Meanwhile, Grandal could be batting 8th for all I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshPR Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I like this right field center field defense. If only Engel could be serviceable with the bat he could be a decent part time player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you’re using hindsight of the double play to say he should have elevated the ball. If it was a hard single in the hole, there’s no chance you would have said “elevate that ball.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg775 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 I love Jose and Grandal obviously but add me to the list of not liking Jose third and Grandal fourth. When he came up, my instant thought was DP letting the rookie lefty off the hook. Indeed he hit a bullet and it was a GREAT defensive DP by KC. But I'd prefer Anderson, Madrigal, Moncada, Eloy, Robert, Abreu, Grandal, Engel and McCann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
