Far too many games where he is a total non-factor And perhaps that's an organizational problem. I don't think the hitters EVER have a plan for the pitcher they are facing. They threw Robert like 3 strikes the last two games, and he has struck out what, 5 times? Just don't fucking swing, if they aren't throwing strikes.

chitownsportsfan Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 Nope, popped up a curve out of the zone. Another great AB from a "franchise bat". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muncy can rake, but he has cost them defensively on multiple occasions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't swing at at least 2 balls that he ended up striking out looking on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted April 1 Share Posted April 1 In case you want to take a moment from this team being terrible...the At Bat app has a live visualization of the game. I'm guessing they're using the Statcast cameras to animate in real-time. It's pretty cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
