Ha more caught stealings

5/15 on stolen bases this season.

 

(Reds are 34/36).

I'm with you. Beckham's greatest talent seems to be instilling false hope. I just hope MGMT sees it that was as well...

 

IDK, I think the righty/lefty platoon seems to be working out right now. Although, Beckham's fielding is enough of an upgrade that it might justify the switch.

 

Either way, production from 2B/3B will be marginal. Hardly matters if Eaton/Cabrera/Abreu/LaRoche play like they are now. The only hitter (besides Abreu, who has been at worst decent) living up to preseason hopes is Avi.

My gosh they cannot steal...................somebody got there mail read.

 

I really think part of it is that our guys don't get a lead at all

Dont f*** this up for Rodon

If they blow this for Rodon, I will be so pissed.

I think the poor baserunning may be the best individual argument for a new manager... Baserunning is one of the clearest aspects of the game in which the manager has influence, and it's also the part of the game at which we are failing most spectacularly.

Great job by Rodon settling down.

 

Beckham has to replace Gillaspie while he is playing this well.

 

That's it.

 

Hahn needs to address the catching....it's a disaster both offensively and defensively.

If they blow this for Rodon, I will be so pissed.

 

If we get through this one, I have confidence in Duke and Robertson (knock on wood)

Petricka blows. Take him out.

Petricka is so bad.

I thought Hamilton was a better RH hitter?

At least duke is coming in, not an ideal situation but it's better then petricka

I thought Hamilton was a better RH hitter?

 

I'd say left handed is his better side. But I've only watched about 5 of their games this year and they were ones that he batted lh

Hitting .176 against righties, .276 against lefties.

 

But given the choice between Petricka and Duke with the tying run on? Zach's been earning his role so.

Well look at that!!!

Very efficient, Dukey

Hell yeah we need that.

Duke just killed the Pilgrims

Didn't realize it was that great of a difference.

 

To double him up is almost impossible

I personally would have Eaton steal. Him and Micah are really the only ones who should try

60% steal rate in the majors. Break-even is about 70.

Runs are neat

It is amazing when we actually hit the ball most of the game.

Sox 6-2
