Can somebody tell me why Osuna appears to have a lot more fans than Biagini?

Runner on 3rd.

 

Osuna is right-handed

 

Dex Fowler is a switch hitter and a well-known veteran hitter known for his ability to come up with important hits during his Cubs days. This is 9th year MLB.

 

Next guy, Diaz, is a right-handed young batter. This is his 2nd year at MLB.

 

If I were Osuna I would have walked Dex Fowler ( without doing it intentionally ) and tried to get Diaz out. Diaz is hitting 234BA 685OPS this year and it would not have been necessariliy difficult to get Diaz out.

 

This is still April and it was Osuna's 3rd blown save. His ERA is now 5.40

 

Mariano Rivera would blow maybe 5 saves over the course of the entire regular season.

It isn't that hard!! if I had a choice between trying to get switch-hitting Dex Fowler out, or trying to get right-handed Diaz out, I would try to get Diaz out.

....but you do know that Osuna doesn't make that decision....right?

He could simply had a quick conversation with the catcher right before Dex Fowler's at-bat started and notify him that Dex Fowler will be walked.

Bullpen pitchers have the advantage of being able to choose to walk a hitter without being concerned about his own pitch count. If I were a bullpen guy I would take a full advantage of it.

That's Gibby's decision to make, not Osuna's.

Spanky gets a week and this guy gets what?

 

What, I'm not allowed to speak negatively about Osuna's 5.40 ERA and 3 blown saves within the first month of the regular season?

And don't worry about getting banned for a week. I have seen people getting banned for all sorts of silly little cute reasons and one can simply create a backup account if he or she is banned for a week.

Where would you rank Anthony Alford on the Jays top prospects list?

Calling Dexter Dex was too much. Like they are friends or something. I couldn't put up with that
