Checkout the 8th inning in the Cubs/D-Backs game, wild or what, lol.

Wow, the 8th must have taken an hour to play.:lol:

Schneider is an idiot. Giminez should not hit ahead of springer.  Barger should be hitting 9th, not Roden.  Why put added pressure on the kid.  Somebody bump the fire Schneider thread...like come on John.

The thing is that lineup order doesn't really matter. So yeah, there are plenty of times I disagree with the specifics of a lineup but then I remember it literally doesn't matter unless you're stacking lefties together, which is a bad idea.

Almost blotched that rundown but we got him!

Mariners miscues have given us a run and cost them a run, perhaps more. That's just in 3 innings.

They deserve 1000 miscues after Game 2 and even then we might not be even until it happens in the playoffs

We are absolutely crushing balls against Woo. A couple foul home runs and warning track shots.

That's ********.  Over 162, you put a much inferior hitter in front of a more superior hitter it costs you runs.  Springer provides protection for Santander.  Games can end with Giminez as the final out.   It makes zero f***ing sense to have Giminez hit ahead of Springer.  Someone make an argument that Giminez is a better hitter than Springer.  Giminez shouldn't be hitting 5th either.  He's an 8 or 9 hitter.

You're seeing that there is still a place for advanced scouting in this stat-driven era. The Mariners know absolutely nothing about Addison Barger.
