Dtrain72 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 I will never understand how someone with such an awful eye at the plate in Baez, has made it this far in his baseball career. In all my 52 years, I really dont recal any other player being such consistent ass at the plate with zero discipline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose the risk under the current rule is If you don't slide and run into the catcher they're going to call you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he gets away with it because he hits some of the terrible pitches he chases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawd I hope he opts out after this season...I cant stand watching him impersonating a windmill at the plate much more (and we're only 5 games in), it makes my soul hurt.

Dtrain72 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Last night and tonight are what we need to see...some passion, play hard, put up a fight, and keep it entertaining. If they lose like this, so be it, at least it's not zombie ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s very streaky, and when he’s going good, which he can do for a couple months at a stretch, he’s a legitimate All-Star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well last year he was "streaky" all right, but not in the good way. Hope he finds one if his 2 month all-star streaks this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chasfh Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Manning was not very good tonight but he kept us close. You could see after that last walk how totally out of gas he was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gehringer_2 Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Got him out before he could lose the game. Fair enough. Lets see if someone in this BP can erase a runner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdog Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Manning competed tonight. Encouraging outing and he's the only healthy high pitching draft pick right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
