Marlins vs. Blue Jays (game 1 out of 2)

[bones10]

Dan's explanation sounds like ********

 

Seriously, what about game 3 of the 2013 world series, they let the cards f***ing walk off on the same play.

[Slade]

Hahah wtf was that Bo

[Orgfiller]

I don't think there would be an issue had the second base ump not signalled to Gurriel. Also, how can they definitively say he wouldn't have made it?

 

Exactly! Gurriel got his leg trampled and then tripped as a result. Who are the umpires to decide he wouldn't have definitively made it or not?

[Spanky99]

I have to admit I didn't know that one

 

Me neither, all the years we played, your just awarded the next bag, I thought, interesting. That's a pretty stupid rule.

[Jimcanuck]

Was Bichette slipping around like that a sign of an inferior field?

[gruber92]

Oh ffs Bo.

[Stangstag]

Bichette dude

[Boxcar]

Bichette seems like a pretty s***** SS tbh

[Deadpool]

Bo not having a solid inning...

[Orgfiller]

Jesus Bo, rough couple of plays.

[Jonn]

Ryu must really miss the Dodgers lol.

[Jonn]

Bichette seems like a pretty s***** SS tbh

 

He will be fine. He has the range and plenty of arm strength to play SS. Just needs the reps.

[Deadpool]

Take 3...

I'm really not convinced he won't be usurped by Groshans or Martin and be moved down the defensive spectrum. He can make some highlight plays but struggle on routine stuff. With that said he's young and has made strides on that front, he could continue to improve towards average.

[Boxcar]

He will be fine. He has the range and plenty of arm strength to play SS. Just needs the reps.

 

Idk, this isn't an isolated incident but he kinda has hands of stone and isn't very accurate on throws.

[Orgfiller]

Can't blame Gurriel for still being salty over that. Total ********.

[THANOS]

Panik with that professional K

[gruber92]

He will be fine. He has the range and plenty of arm strength to play SS. Just needs the reps.

 

I don't know tbh. I think he eventually ends up at 2B with Biggio turning into a super utility type.

[TheHurl]

Rule 7.06( Comment: Under 7.06( when the ball is not dead on obstruction and an

obstructed runner advances beyond the base which, in the umpire’s judgment, he would have been

awarded because of being obstructed, he does so at his own peril and may be tagged out. This is a

judgment call.

 

The big question is why not call time.

[Jonn]

If Groshans is the one that stays at SS and Bo goes to 3B or 2B would be interesting. We have great infield prospects whoever ends up the best at each spot sounds like a good problem to have.

How much do you wanna bet Gurriel didnt know this rule either

[Jonn]

Marcus Semien comes to mind when I think of players who was a nightmare SS and turned himself into a very competent SS. And I don’t think Bo is as bad as he was to start. Not worried about Bo yet but only time will tell.

[Jaysareus]

Vlad it first run down should be interesting

[Terminator]

That's a horseshit rule. You might as well always obstruct and then leave it up to the whims of these fat umpires. Especially if you're the Yankees or some other team that gets gifted all the calls anyway.

[gruber92]

How the f*** does Montoya choose Panik as the DH over Tellez?

[Slade]

He's been ok, it's not like we have anyone better. You just let him go at it until someone pushes him to second.

[Spanky99]

Did you, ex-player? lol

[Spanky99]

Nice play, Bo.

[Ex Player]

Did you, ex-player? lol

Hell no

 

And neither did anyone else in the stadium

[gruber92]

I could be talking out of my ass but Bo's glove seems a bit long for a middle infielder.
