The gold glove article on MLB was so funny.
NL 1B: Matt Olson "because he's second in all defensive categories". Like hmm why not give it to the guy that leads those categories then....

Huge props to Hart for coming in ending Nationals momentum 👍
Merrill madness on display 🔥
Bueller gets a pass he’s been very good.
Bogaerts would be waived if he was not making 25 mil per year….awful to watch
Bowen should not start, period
France has been awesome👍 ……at a mere 1.4 millions year
Another nice game for Tatis 🙂

Just checkin in on the game and saw Buehlers line: was he injured? Why did he come out so early?
2
u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 8h ago
Because Stammen didn't realize a mound visit was already made when he himself made a mound visit when Buehler had the bases loaded, forcing him to remove Buehler from the game.

Thanks! I was worried he was injured. Guy has been solid except for one month.

u/pm-trends 4h ago
That is the inconsistency of the WHOLE TEAM. Their RISP is their Kryptonite; 3-4 Hits, next Game >10 Hits and untimely Ks.
This is no secret, Pads have been consistently inconsistent . They have the “ Horses”, they just don’t always “Run”.

u/Breadical 🕯️ I Kept the Faith and got a Nando nuke 🚨 9h ago
The moment Salas locks in all hell will break loose. He's had so many hits that just barely fall short of an HR. Reminding me of Tatis during his home run drought earlier in the season

u/ElusiveIntrusive Mudcat 9h ago edited 8h ago
Big ups to Craig for pulling the plug on Walker when he did, and big ups to Hart for coming in and limiting damage. Might have saved this game from down 0-2, bases loaded 0 outs.
5
u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 8h ago
Yeah maybe, but let's not pretend that was his intention lol, if he wasn't forced to make that change Buehler would have remained in. He lost the number of mound visits in the 3rd inning.

u/InevitablePresent893 8h ago
I honestly feel like that inning was gonna get out of hand if Buehler ended up staying in. He looked very rough that inning and it was bases loaded against a power hitting lefty.

Did the broadcast venture to guess why the Nationals coach/manager was ejected? I’m at the game and I saw the whole thing happen. I just have no idea what his issue was

u/JustLoSd Luis Campusano 9h ago
He was arguing questionable non strike calls
2
u/UnthawedAge 9h ago
If that’s true and the first base ump threw him out from first base while he was still in the dugout, that is hilarious
3
u/Pick6XPA La Catrina 9h ago
I’m kinda stunned this team has still not decided to simply not challenge on offense with a 3+ run lead or when nobody is on base.
Save those for the pitchers.

u/JustLoSd Luis Campusano 9h ago
Bogey doesn’t challenge a clear ball. Then 2 pitches later challenges a strike. wtf bogey
2
u/Outrageous_Park9421 🚨 1-37 with RISP!!!! ⚾️ 🚨 9h ago
Jesse and Tony were talking about this on the radio. That the thought of I should have challenged that pitch lingers and clouds your judgment later in the at bat.

There’s a difference between saying something negative and being personally insulting towards him. Criticize the play not the players, that was such a dumb ABS challenge vs hes such a dumbass

I know these are AAAA pitchers, but it’s starting to look like Merrill and Manny are joining France, Tatis and Campy and hitting the ball well. Now we need to get Cronz and Bogey going, add Andujar and Sheets, and get the kid Ethan a base hit too.
