QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:58 PM) Carlos! All it took was a 70 MPH cookie over the plate lol

Please get another run

Putnam!!

Defense is so comical. How are we winning

Soto bomb!!!!

Got hit hard there but he gets out of it. Good outing Q

Nice catch!

That is 1! can we get 2 more?

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:11 PM) What shows you he's a good base stealer? He has consistently failed to steal bases at a satisfactory level from AA up. I don't think he is great but I think he can be average. He is still learning the game and he will learn base running. I think he has the speed to steal bases, he just needs to learn the technique

Quintana battling like usual. Feel bad for him

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:06 PM) He was probably safe today by an inch, which is not enough when you have to steal bases 70+% of the time for it to be worth it. He's 9 for 20 on his career now. Soto is a flyball hitter who is striking out 34% of the time. The chance of a strikeout is higher than a ground ball. That is on Robin for sending him. But it wasn't because Avi isn't a base stealer why he was out at 2nd. I think Avi has the tools to steal 15 bags a year

Oh great, it's up to Emilio who for some reason is hitting 2nd tonight

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:00 PM) I 100% agree. Errors of such a careless nature can't be tolerated. Not to mention, the game is close, and with guys like Sanchez and Alexei on the bench, you can't afford any further plays like the two we've already seen tonight. If that was his 1st throwing error today, maybe I let it slide but that was his 2nd in 5 innings

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 09:00 PM) It still demonstrates he is simply not fast enough/a good enough baserunner. I'd rather risk the double play than risk the strike 'em out (with a guy who strikes out a lot) and throw 'em out (with a guy who gets thrown out a lot). Not really. He was safe last night and a lot of people say he was safe today. Running to steal and running to stay out of a DP or running for a hit and run are 2 different things

If I was Robin I would take him out after that s***. Put Sanchez in

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 08:56 PM) Not a classic steal, but it still goes down as a caught stealing. Either way it emphasises the same point, he's not fast enough to steal bases. Yes but it wasn't a straight steal. That is on Soto for not even swinging the bat

Why is this bum playing and on this team?!?!

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 08:50 PM) Because it's terrible. As is his baserunning. STOP TRYING TO STEAL BASES AVI YOU CAN'T DO IT. He wasn't "stealing" he was running to stay out of the double play but Soto struck out

Bad bad bad bad

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 10, 2015 -> 08:27 PM) If you put him 2nd, at least put a play on for him. Did he try to bunt in the first? He did the first two pitches and they were balls then he swung on 2-0 and popped it up. Horrible

Not sure what Bonifacio is offering for this team except a good personality
