Lazar has gotten nobody out so far lol

Should have held Rojas when he got a horrible read off the bat.

I'm just saying they're not a very good team and just happen to be in the race because of circumstances you mentioned. Unless Trout becomes an MVP candidate the last 2 months, I don't think they're anywhere near good enough to make the playoffs.

The Angels are barely ahead of the Sox in run differential. Imagine thinking that team has a chance to actually get into the playoffs.

Yeah that porch might do him some good.

No, he will continue to hit like prime Barry Bonds with a .342 BABIP when he has like 0 percentile sprint speed. Seriously though, if he ends up being good enough for MIlwaukee that it costs the Cubs the division, the trade will be worth it in my eyes.

Slater's savant numbers are really good. But while he hit the crap out of the ball a lot, I felt like he had some shitty luck hitting it right to people or flying out to the warning track in center. Even with that, he's a really good platoon bat.

Easy ABS overturn next year

He just nibbles all day or hangs the sweeper

I was really hoping we could deal Wilson. Now this outing might make that impossible.

Wilson is trying to make this interesting. Quero is also taking a beating back there tonight

McGuire is probably the last guy I'd expect to take Houser deep

I think people are worried he might hurt himself or have some kind of freak liner hit back at him.

This is kind of hard to believe

Maybe in another 30 pitches

I hope this hot streak doesn't give the FO any illusions they should keep guys like Houser or Tauchman.

Tauchman! What a week it's been for this team

Shoulda had Flexen ready after that homer. You'd much rather face Quero from the left side.

Way to pitch out of that

I saw some YT videos about how PCA caught a ball with 0% catch probability. Can anyone tell me the catch probability of that ball?

Way too much warning track power today

This was like when Robert would go over towards Eloy and call him off, but Robert actually caught the ball, unlike PCA

lol PCA

Had him and Sosa gotten under it a bit more on their fly balls, it'd be like a 9-0 game.

Pretty much everything has been hit hard this inning.
