3 hard hit balls thus far in the inning. What a smart, economical alternative to signing someone good.
Nothing more pathetic than a pitcher with consistently horrendous command whining about not getting borderline pitches. The pitcher's equivalent of Grandmal doing it at the plate.
You're right. Same with Mehcarthy. Supposed to be economical deals but in reality are multi year failure signings.
Imo, the shift is bringing Gonzo's career to a bit of a premature ending...hope I'm wrong, but so many that would have previously gone throgh, are just outs now.
Btw, that spot earlier in the "Scully" tributes with Orel telling what Vin did for players by his demeanor and simply his presence and personality was eloquent. Idk if it was scripted or what, I think it was just Orel, but truly elegant, intelligent meaningful prose. Bravo on that Orel.
