Damn, Nieto hit that hard. If only it was a foot to the right

Nieto getting better and better at the plate.

Sierra's doing it all. Hitting, fielding, and his dugout antics.

 

He has a 289 OBP with Chicago and a 677 OPS, he's butchered a couple of makeable plays in RF, let's not get ahead of ourselves.

 

That said, there is zero reason he shouldn't be starting everyday in a corner after the trade deadline. De Aza or Viciedo or both should 100% be gone.

Moises is hitting .279 with us now

Nieto getting better and better at the plate.

 

I wish he would get more starts.

LOL gimme a break.

 

He should now start to foul off any ball that's not going to be a strike in a 3-ball count so he can hit more dingers!!

 

When you have Dunns power you don't bunt.....Plus he's slow so it's probably gonna take 2 hits to get him in anyway.

 

Saying he should bunt is absolutely ridiculous.

and has two walks. But, he should see more time.

The other day, Colby Rasmus actually did this and was safe. For some reason, Colby Lewis, who was pitching, got really pissed. It was 2-0 Toronto in the 5th, so Lewis didn't really have a reason to be mad.

This made espn.com as a story I think. I immediately thought of Dunn.

Nice play by GB

safe, easily

I've always liked Dyson. Decent hitter and the second fastest player in baseball. I wish KC gave him more chances before their outfield was Gordon/Cain/Aoki.

not definitive IMO

Got to stay with original call out.

He wasn't safe easily. That was so close. Too close to overturn

You must also agree with my idea of simply fouling off any potential ball 4 then too, right? When you have Dunn's power, taking a walk is absolutely ridiculous.

If he always goes outside of the strike zone (which is the one asset he brings with his power, a good eye and a reputation for drawing walks) and gets himself out trying to hit homers...a .150ish batting average wouldn't be a surprise at all.

Come on Carroll

Lol. No.

 

When he gets a strike, which is what I assume you'd want him to bunt, he needs to swing the bat..

 

I'm done with this, it's silly.

 

 

Time for an Alexei HR this inning.

He gone

I'm done with this, it's silly.

Again, I agree.

was he safe or something?

I think he was in there.

 

Dat slide

Picked off

Looks safe, but probably too hard to overturn.

Not definitive, again
