Either need to be all the way or a long hopStill struggling with the throwing aspects...more often than not runners have taken extra bases as a result.Margin is quite thin in these games...just can't afford to give 2-3 extra runs due to defense.

4 hours ago4 hr Teel catch 50/50 probably...Surely he'd say he should have made it.Takes some time coming back after almost three months off to get back timing/reflexes.
4 hours ago4 hr I’m thinking they need to send Gonzalez down after this game. Anyone on the 40 they can flip?

4 hours ago4 hr I don't think that was remotely a 90% play at the plate. Not a play that required an amazing job to get it done, but that mitt is not designed to make that kind of play which is why you'll see those kinds of plays very frequently not made in various ways. I also don't think it was a real bad throw by Antonacci as it was basically on line and while he should be thinking about whether he can get it on the fly or get it on a decent long hop, it's just not that easy to be precise in all three dimensions.

4 hours ago4 hr Cade Smith should be available for the Guards, and getting to him twice in a series seems like a tough ask
