That slider was a mistake pitch.

Unsure if they don't think Engel can hold up playing every day, or if Tony is just obsessed with getting Sheets in the lineup because he's left handed

It's 100% because of the side of the plate he hits from, nothing else. Still the old world 'righty on the mound, get all my lefties in!' modus operandi.

At this point, I would say it’s definitely because he’s left handed

8 game hitting streak for Robert now.

Moncada already making Luis more patient at the plate

That was a meat change up.

I know this is a crazy idea, but maybe they should have acquired more lefty hitters in the offseason

We are overdue for a batdrop bomb from Yaz.

How can we spend a dollar, with only 50 cents in our pockets, though?

Personally I would not let Grandal beat me here.

He's gonna have to go oppo cause not a lot is leaving to RF today. 

Of course it’s Sheets up. Time to shut us up.

Not sure why they would even give him a hittable pitch with Pollock Sheets on deck.

still holds true

Shit, Pollock is going to fuck this up.

Well, if you ever wanted to make up for being a boneheaded outfielder, Sheets, now is a pretty good time...
 

this seems like a decent opportunity to redeem yourself, gavin

Harold Baines in the radio booth if anyone is interested.

He'll ground out softly to 1B. 

Almost like they pitched around Grandal to face Sheets. Not a bad idea at all.

I appreciate grandal will let the pitcher walk him.

Gavin is going to be over-swinging here desperate to make up for his horrible error
