Touched 94 on the fastball as well. We'll see if it continues, but so far - so good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I am so fucking ready for robot umps. This shit is ridiculous. Missed call after missed fucking call. SETS THE TONE FOR THE WHOLE FUCKING AB. FUCK OFF UMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 That was a strike, the first one was marginal...could have gone either way. Did Moncada sleep with one of the umpires' wives or girlfriends? Hard to figure out any other explanation for some of the calls he's gotten the last 10 days (across multiple home plate umps).

It wasn't even close. Giolito got the benefit of one as well. http://www.brooksbaseball.net/pfxVB/zoneTrack.php?month=6&day=11&year=2018&game=gid_2018_06_11_clemlb_chamlb_1/&prevDate=0611 Edited June 12, 2018 by chitownsportsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Moncada 86 k's / 245 PA's=35.1% For what it's worth, he's right at his career average now over 2016-2018, .233 over his entire career.

caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Palka would be on pace for exactly 30 homers if he got 625 at-bats...(horseshoes, hand grenades, etc.) Has Renteria been asked on the record about some of the ball/strike calls the last couple of weeks...and why he hasn't even gone out once to protest? Just a weird situation not to stick up for your players... Edited June 12, 2018 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 93.7 the best FB that inning to retire Chisenhall... Melky putting up some Engel-like numbers, don't miss that version of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how he never was viewed as a potential option as an MLB outfielder. I just looked it up and his numbers in the minors were more than respectable throughout his time with Arizona and Minnesota's organizations. I mean, his raw power at the plate alone, especially from the left side. You'd think somebody would have wanted to give him a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a .5 WAR player, at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
