A lineup with no Ohtani and Trout is dogshit is what I meant.
I basically think our lineup with no Ohtani is already light on capability, so take out Trout too and I'm sorry but on paper it looks disgusting.
I think you have Calhoun's stats wrong, those .156/.156 numbers have to be his obp/slg since he doesn't have an extra base hit since his 1st game.
He doesnt have a .356 slg. I'm too lazy to look up his avg. during ur time frame but I'd bet its even lower than didi.
Kole Calhoun wtf, we talk crap about how bad Albert has been but not even in his worst slump has he been this bad.
Is there any reason not to try to lay 4 bunts down a game at this point? At least try to, for one game please?
back to Calhoun: we on this board discussed the scenario where with the game on the line Calhoun would at least try to bunt to the left side - this was that exact scenario and he fucked up again,
he's so frustrating - if he's not confident on bunting he needs to be practicing it for 2-3 hours before the start of the game. No way anyone wouldn't at least try it in a game situation if they spent that much time on it. He's not spending any time practicing it most likely so F*ck him at this point.
what part of easier road did you not understand? Of course most teams in the playoffs are likely to be good.
You'd rather face the Indians than have to beat the two best teams in the ML to reach the same spot.
How do you not understand that?
we really need to win the division, beat Indians and you're already at the ALCS.
WC leads to BOS/NY then ALDS against the other - have to beat the two best teams to get to same spot.
