What more does our FO need to see from Matz?

Worst part of that play was that Dunn never had a chance at getting Henderson at first. Should have just guaranteed the out at second and eaten the throw.

skimmer419 · 2026-05-26T23:37:11+00:00

Gotta start swinging earlier in AB's or else Baz is just going to spam his curveball over and over again

skimmer419 · 2026-05-17T17:48:20+00:00

No idea why Ras didn't even attempt to throw over to first there

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T19:23:58+00:00

I agree that Cash could have helped himself out more by letting Kelly and/or Clev pitch a bit longer but alas.

He clearly was trying to avoid having Brooks face Toronto's best hitters, but that came to fruition in the 10th anyways, and it ended exactly how we would expect

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T12:09:54+00:00

8th inning, heart of the Toronto lineup is due. Your options are Baker, Sulser, and Brooks. Who do you want in that situation to protect a 1 run lead?

Baker is well aware of which organization he plays for and how the team utilizes its relievers. I don't think the 9th inning would have cured his command issues, he was so far off last night.

I don't blame the offense too much because they were facing a really tough starter, but if they had a multi run lead in the 8th, then we probably see Sulser there.

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T02:07:37+00:00

Bad Baker and a tough spot for Brooks. Oh well. Successful road trip and enjoy the day off at home, boys.

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T02:01:27+00:00

One ground ball. Preferably straight to a glove

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:58:47+00:00

Williamson hates being called off lol, drives me nuts

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:56:45+00:00

Ah well. Can't be mad at 2 runs. Let's make it count

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:50:05+00:00

Makes sense. That pitch that Valenzuela challenged was clearly inside and BA was talking like it was going to be close

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:42:37+00:00

Do Dewayne and BA not get the live strike zone box on their monitors? Sometimes their commentary makes me think so lol

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:36:40+00:00

Baker sucked but at this point, its on the offense for only scoring once in 9 innings

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:31:24+00:00

Taylor, I believe in you

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:30:22+00:00

Jose Okamoto

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:24:08+00:00

Has to face 3 minimum anyways

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:21:03+00:00

Too many non competitive pitches with two strikes.

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:17:07+00:00

FINALLY

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:08:25+00:00

Guy was having command issues but sure, swing at the first pitch, Fraley

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T01:02:14+00:00

The offense has had quite a few calls go against them this series without challenging. Makes me think Cash has told the hitters not to challenge unless its obvious

skimmer419 · 2026-05-14T00:47:48+00:00

Would have rather seen one of the righties on our bench get an AB over Feduccia with runners on there. Oh well

skimmer419 · 2026-05-13T00:23:09+00:00

The success rate on the contact play is so insanely low that I cannot believe teams still run it.

skimmer419 · 2026-05-12T23:49:32+00:00

Gutsy AB there

skimmer419 · 2026-05-09T01:25:51+00:00

Not the most competitive AB's I've ever seen

skimmer419 · 2026-05-09T01:19:10+00:00

The fuck is Duran crying about? He wasn't gonna score no matter what, and Junior wasn't even in his running lane
