GDT Doubleheader Day

[Boxcar]

Another Guerrero liner that he isn't able to turn into two bases. It's kind of funny and sad that as bad as he has looked at the plate at times he's also been unlucky I guess. But if he's in better shape that has to be two bases easily.

 

When hitting the ball really hard works against you

[Jonn]

I can't even imagine Charlie having the balls to push Donaldson out of the way, never mind say anything.

 

Donaldson would literally body slam Montoyo and Charlie would just walk back to the dugout and pretend it didn’t happen.

[JFD]

ump is a joke

[glory]

Is there anyway he can start, or is he strictly a pen arm at this point in his career?

 

He missed all of 2018, threw 6 innings in 2019, and then got hurt in spring training this year. He turns 29 in a few months. He's probably a reliever at best.

Espinal redeem yourself.

[Slade]

No GIDP please!

[Jonn]

3 hits by this part of the order is nothing short of a miracle. Can we atleast get a run out of this FFS.

Classic Charlie.

Rowdy and Jansen and Gurriel all available

Whats the over/under Vladdie ever hits a big league inside the parker??

[Boxcar]

Better than I expected

[BlueRocky]

Alright one more

[Orgfiller]

Espinal is looking a lot less useless at the plate the last couple of games. Nice swing there to drive in a run.

This sentence makes no sense

[Jays24]

Productive out. Cant be mad at that

[EdwinsParrot]

Will certainly take that.

[BlueRocky]

Biggio & Grichuk needs to cash in these runs

[Jonn]

That’s about as hard as Espinal can hit a ball so I will take it. It would have been depressing if we got 3 straight hits without a run because Vlad is fat.

That's his third would-be double that ends up as a long single. This is the one aspect where him simply being in better shape would make his performance stand out more even if nothing else changed (and should change of course).

[KevinGregg]

You can be mad that he (and McGuire) were allowed to hit there at all... so sick of him managing like this is a bunch of 10 year olds whose moms are going to chew him out if he pinch hits for her kid

[Slade]

That was a hanger Biggio.

Vlad hitting a single is like having Kendrys Morales on base. The fact that he's 21 and I'm saying that is sad.

Gotta love ballpark Karen’s.

[Orgfiller]

Considering we acquired him injured, and hasn't pitched for two seasons, it's probably a pipe dream for him to be a starter going forward. Might as well just try him out as an elite multi-inning reliever.

[BlueRocky]

C’mon Grichuk

[bones10]

I think Biggio is my favourite out him vlad and bichette.

Only thing i would say is that if you can't play 4 innings of a game, you probably shouldn't be in the lineup in the first place. Although this is only a 7 inning game.

[Jonn]

I think Biggio is my favourite out him vlad and bichette.

 

I love both Biggio and Bichette. Dramatically different approaches but both enjoyable to watch.
