I realize that, but I don't have access to catch probability stats so I gotta look at xBA and use my eyes to see if he really should have caught it. That ball was in the gap, so I don't think any regular CF gets to it.

I remember when Bummer's sinker was 96-97. It's now 92-93. Either he's taking some speed off for more control or he's a bit fatigued.

Bummer is meat right now.

Probably cause Tony thinks he can get Kiermaier out with him. I don't think Tony knows that KK has reverse splits.

He even closed his stance to try and cover that slider. So he knows it's coming. Yet he still swings.

I think we need Graveman to maybe go 2 innings tonight.

Yikes Eloy

Phillips would totally make that catch

He got the grounder on the sinker. His sinker hasn't been in the zone much this year. And when it's been in the zone, guys aren't hitting grounders.

Yup. I felt like he needed to throw another slider to Choi there.

Choi's hit had a .930 xBA. Robert coming close to catching that should tell you just how much range he covers. He's just not real good around the wall and warning track though.

Bummer isn't gonna be dependable until he finds the zone more consistently with his sinker.

Zunino can easily give them the lead here. The matchups are awful for Bummer outside of Choi.

Wow this game turned quick.

Fuck he dropped it

Jesus that slider is nasty.

Bummer is always down in the count.

90ish pitches was probably his limit. Choi has also seen him 3 times before this.

What an outing by Dylan. It certainly looks like he's stepped it up to another level this year. He had issues last year against patient lineups cause they wouldn't swing at his stuff out of the zone. The Rays are probably one of the more patient teams in baseball and he made them look terrible.

Randy would probably be the last guy I let Cease face.

Franco hit that better than his other 2 hits. That's baseball.

Get the bullpen up.

It's been 1 year and a day since the no hitter.

He was over swinging yesterday too.
