i agree, matt. omar bumbles these moves. how he lost flores to washington i'll never know.
you're talking about a great basestealer with one out. i agree not to push it if it's 0 out or even 2 out, but with 1 out play aggressive ball. why play so defensively? like i said, this team has been struggling getting the hits, put pressure on the defense.
i'm with you. i just wonder why not send beltran before it gets to 3-2 on santos?? i mean, santos took the first FIVE pitches in that ab. plenty of time to run. they gotta push the envelope more. especially when they're not hitting like this. i see reyes, beltran and wright sitting at bases far too much. it'd be understandable if the offense wasn't atrocious at getting runners in once they're on.
holy smoke. this is exhausting. i know it was silly! such was my intent, and i thought that was allowed. i understand now that it is not. didn't know it was like a composition class. won't happen again. just fact-supported simple statements: dwright needs to drive in more runs.
no you don't, and even after the explanation you still don't. otherwise, you wouldn't respond to the nonissue twice.
thank you. i see you understand the focus of my complaint has little to do with walks, and more to do with the lack of run production. nym712, figure out the sarcasm or leave the editorializing out.
hi, i'm 2007 and 2008 ... nice to meet you
how is it possible that reyes in on base 5 times in the last two days (once with a triple!) and not score a single run???!! could someone please tell dwright that he hits in the middle of the lineup, not to walk, but to drive in runs. we all appreciate all 4 rbi he has this season, but when he has almost 4x as many strikeouts, it's a little left to be desired. pick it up!
it's a bonehead move in tribute to willie "veterans-always-get-precedence-over-younger-guys-even-in-the-face-of-overwhelming-statistical-evidence" randolph, who is in the house this weekend for the first time since his infamous firing. hope he appreciates it, cause i sure don't.
