The DBacks' starter has a 10.03 ERA.

Really sucks when you can’t improve upon an era of over 10.  Slow meatballs in the middle won’t work.  Not sure how these guys with 90 mph fastballs and no control make it this far.

Not bad for a catcher.

[Second Base]

Max really pissed on that pitch, didn't he?

Stassi for team MVP this season. Dude has made a huge difference when in the lineup.

And in the field.

Don’t know if I’ve ever seen a catcher hitting lead off.

Right. I should have phrased it as "starting."

What’s the contract situation with Stassi ? He’s going into his last year of arbitration right ?

Yes 

[rafibomb]

Stassi's pitch framing is so elite 

[Revad]

If he stays healthy he is peretty good, maybe as good as it gets.  If he stays healthy.

Thanks Billy

[HeavenlyHalos]

Ward has really stepped up recently as well.

[UndertheHalo]

Pat Sandoval is also Ohtani. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Sandoval! hahahaha

[rafibomb]

Lagares needs to be relegated to only late game defensive replacement at this point.

To my eyes, Ward is obviously a better player than Rojas.  He’s looked pretty good for a while. 

[failos]

Sandoval channeling Ohtani!

[UndertheHalo]

Pretty dumb play from the mustache character there 

[Bronson]

Joe showing his genius again
