I liked the whole "What would that do to his confidence" going into the beginning of the season argument

They said that it would hurt Arenado going back to his real team knowing that he got benched in the WBC. Well what does it say to the players who sit the bench behind that dude, other than the fact that they wasted three weeks of spring training?

How about the confidence of the bench players?

They apparently suck so bad that they can't start over a walking human strikeout

While it was a dumb question, Carlos Beltran technically does have a few right handed at bats against right handed pitchers, including in 1999 and 2001 when Beltran faced Martinez.

They keep saying there are no manager challenges, but how is the crew chief review not the same damn thing?

Yeah I noticed that in the semifinals too. "No manager challenges" has really just become unlimited manager challenges, because every time they talk to the umpire, there's a crew chief review. Why not just call it what it is?

Of course there are the rare occasions when players go R-R and L-L for whatever reason, but if that happened against Pedro, he obviously doesn't remember it.

Annnnnnd the guy keeping Bregman on the bench K's with a runner in scoring position. Again.

No need to type it every time it happens... I'll just quote it.

Arenadomatic strikeout, amirite?!



6 strikeouts in a row will do wonders for his confidence, right old man Leyland?

Leyland might go Murphy before Bregman

As soon as the wild pitch happened, I thought cool, now my quote with RISP will work again when this dude K's.

Does McCutchen even GAF?

He looks like he just couldn't care less. He is not even looking at the ball.

I think he only cares after the 7th inning.

Helen Keller has a better chance of hitting the ball than Arenado, so I'm willing to try literally anyone else.

I will say I like listening to John Smoltz. Dude is pretty damn smart and he does a nice job of explaining well without sounding like a know it all.

I'm digging him (no homo).

What's the effective difference between the pause Stroman has and the jump step thing they passed a rule about because of one guy? Seems like a silly rule if you're going to allow another guy to stop completely twice in his motion.

Wouldn't mind seeing Arenado bunt the runners over right here (if I can't get a pinch hitter, of course).

I'm betting he goes 4-4 with 3 HR in his first ST game. But he's about to strike out here....again.
