named AL Player of the Week
Carter had two nice scoops in that inning. Am I conveniently forgetting a lot of shitty plays, or is he actually decent at 1st? I know he had a lousy toss to Bud covering last week, but otherwise, seems like he's been OK.
He picks the ball just fine at 1B, he's just not very mobile. I have noticed him out of position on cutoffs at times, as well. Overall, with time to learn the position, I think he can be servicable at 1B. The outfield and base running are a whole different story. He always has a future in Wind Energy.
has Belisle pitched today?
He's pitching right now.
he pitched a scoreless 8th.
Time for Jose to take his one way trip on the Phillip Humber Memorial Highway.
Where do you get this shit, honestly? Chron.com?
Reuben mines for nuggets.
Thanks, Mr. H and Ron. Just looked up Lyles' 2013 splits. He's actually handled lefties better than righties so far this year- .250 BA/.756 OPS compared to .315/.857. Hopefully both of those numbers will continue to come down, but he's certainly turned things around from March.
Were his outings longer last year, given that Porter seems to be taking him out now before hs Oswalt inning?
