Foul by probably half an inch, figures

Oh yay, chase ball 3

Said this a lot last year, but Petricka has got to develop a better offspeed pitch.

It makes little sense for the outfield to be playing so deep with Dyson on first base. Anything close to a double and he easily scores.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 05:06 AM) I hate this season This team makes winning games seem very difficult. Every returning player besides Abreu from last year's offense has been a disgrace.

QUOTE (bmags @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 05:07 AM) Also avi just sucks He's so freaking slow out there

Awful, awful pitch by Petricka.

Wow, speed kills. Oh, see ya greg!

Just try one pitch out

Moose looks pretty great at the plate this year.

QUOTE (Condor13 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 04:58 AM) Dumb decision to take out Micah. Not only can he hit lefties he can bunt better then Emilio can hit and Micah is the better defender. Tallest midget

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 03:56 AM) Offense...so amazingly bad. Extra innings just mean more chances for our guys to lower their already laughable batting averages. Not only bad, but has anyone hit a ball hard since Abreu's double?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 04:55 AM) You guys that hate the bunt can rip me all you want. But the inning we had a guy on second and no outs, a good team has Melky bunt him to third and voila we win with a fly ball. But nooooo. We can't ask Melky, a power hitter to bunt him to third. That'd be so wrong. Well guess what, LaRoche K'd and Avi grounded out.

Melky's swing is pathetic against LHP

Swing for the fences Melky

Can anyone on this team hit the ball hard besides Abreu?

Strike 4...can't wait until he shows up for the season.

No problem with letting Emilio bat here. Hopefully he knows the season's started.

Who would you let bat here, Johnson or Bonifacio?

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 04:43 AM) Alexei bunt/Beckham steal attempts in late innings are prolly not going to put you in "Manager of the Year" conversations. Not forcing the issue to get the Royals worst reliever in as well (Morales)

Hell of a play by Alexei!

Still can't believe he let Flowers hit there when he could have gotten a great match-up with Morales vs Soto. Morales is garbage

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 04:40 AM) Lol. Who told him to steal? We know Beckham is slow and it was an 0-2 count correct? And they knew it was coming

That was an incredibly stupid steal attempt. TERRIBLE inning of fundamentals/managing

QUOTE (chw42 @ Apr 24, 2015 -> 04:38 AM) In other news, Flowers is still susceptible to off-speed pitches. and fastballs
