Moncada 2b

Sanchez 3b

Abreu 1b

Delmonico LF

Anderson SS

Palka DH

Thompson RF

Narvaez C

Engel CF

 

Palka taking his first steps toward the Hall of Fame.

Hitting 2 hr off Felix a la Brian Anderson.

Luis Aparicio, Don Drysdale, and Frank Robinson made their debuts on the same date.

So Palka, Acuna, and who else?

Game will be on MLB Network for all yall out of towners.

Shields with a great pitch to sit down Gordon, not sure why Dee was shaking his head

Dodged a bullet there.

absolute Hanger that was missed.

YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD YES!  WOW!

that ball was kilt

THAT HANGER WASN'T MISSED MERCY!!

 

Love Yoan being aggressive, Superstar in the making.

The Yo-Yo attack at the top of the lineup is working.

Power went out just before Moncada AB. SMH.

that was no ordinary outage it was the EMP blast from that Nuke off his bat.

Real nice AB by Nicky. No groundballs Timmy

little flare from Timmy, that'll work.

Moncada now sporting a 903 OPS.

bottom half of the order could be a safe space for felix today. 

Hopefully the top half stays hot

Gotta love Yoan adjusting

 

Also can Yolmer be the solution for 3B? He's rocking a 811OPS

Zips only sees 1.3 fWAR for Yolmer this year but over his last 160 odd games he's produced about 2.7 fWAR.   So there's some doubt from the projections but there no reason not to give him the rest of the year to see if he really is a 2-3 WAR player at 3B.  

I personally think he is but I've long been an optimist on Yolmer.

Moncada 5 extra base hits in a row the guys pounding the ball, think he's getting comfortable? hes about to take off

That's because the game is usually 8 seconds in front of what we see on TV, and the ball clobbered your dish.

That's a bad play by Nicky.

James Shields is like lukewarm oatmeal.  at absolute best it's something to get you by until better options are available.
