And he makes a great pitch to get him. Can't foul off meatballs.

Man I thought Moncada was going to park that. He got a cookie.

Not sure if you have an EPL equivalent but MLB has this thing called "MLB.tv" it's pretty affordable and you should check it out. You can watch every game, every replay, etc for about $120 a year.

please tell me we aren't bunting here.

It looked like he might have missed (or thought he missed) 1st base. He sorta pimped out of the box but whatever he got the job done with a well struck ball.

They should have been ripping Soler for making a HS level mistake and not finding the wall on a towering fly ball.

Everyone had to tag with 1 out. Where was he going to go after he got to 1st?

ah unlucky, right at him. good inning.

wow, nice play Soler, holy fuck, lmao

I am so fucking ready for robot umps. Sick of it. Time and time again they miss pitches that are not even close.

quite the batflip on that walk by Abreu.

Dylan Covey should be on the banner.

you're the one that thinks he apparently should...be better? He has a 155 wRC+ entering the game. Christ. He's not going to turn into Avi Garcia with a 80% Ozone swing rate.

Why would he swing at a pitch that probably wasn't a strike and if it was had nasty break? Sure an elite hitter probably fouls that off with two strikes but give the kid a break.

We can argue about this one play all game. My point overall is he needs to improve. Massively. Like I said, I think he's a good young player but if he's not a MLB quality SS -- and the tide is starting to go out on that early this year -- he's going to have a hard time being a solid starter. And that would be a big setback. I'm officially worried. Hopefully he plays great the rest of the way defensively.

I'm done giving him the benefit of the doubt he has over 2300 innings at the MLB level at SS. It's time to start making the plays that are there to be made. That's two games in the last three he's made a bad error in a huge spot. A solid MLB SS makes the plays 98/100. And Tim's history shows that those aren't his two times just unluckily sequenced. I love the guy but he's got a long ass way to go defensively.

another low point.

another stupid backhand attempt. it's like dude, you're fast, you're quick. get. in. front. of. the. ball. And again, it's not like he had a really fast runner to gun down.

Well if you're going to talk shit make the god damn play kid.

you gotta fucking be kidding me with this broo ha ha right now. Get on with it motherfuckers. Two shit teams pissing on each other's leg. Wow.

Good god this team makes a lot of absolutely ridiculous fucking errors.

or have fun playing a kid's game.

Covey still sucks but I will say he looks more polished all around. Slightly better stuff, slightly better velocity, slightly better control.

perez looked frustrated with his pitcher as well.

Anderson is such a different hitter this year. He is making the pitcher pitch to him, not the other way around. Putting himself in hitter's counts.
