Post by: Reuben on August 23, 2013, 06:35:24 pm: Altuve has really been dragging lately. His leg is clearly injured, and his hitting approach has been piss-poor for most of the past 3-4 months. Why continue to bat him 3rd, where he probably feels even more pressure to come up with big hits?

Post by: Reuben on August 23, 2013, 07:50:31 pm: Altuve promptly delivers an RBI double his first AB. You're welcome. Should I go into how much Lyles has sucked of late? He could use the boost.

I'd prefer you talk about Springer's HR-less drought...

Post by: Reuben on August 23, 2013, 08:59:22 pm: 2 homers allowed by Lyles already? Kid's probably destined for the bullpen.

Carter is trying to accomodate you. 4ABs, 4Ks. I don't understand his aversion to hitting at home.

There was a surprising amount of Blue Jays fans there. But they were far too drunk and polite to own up to the acquaintance.

Genius.

I don't know about you but I eventually decided that the piece, like the Guy Fieri menu, was satire. I base this conclusion on the extreme improbability of Berk Lanceman knowing anything about the Arcade Fire.
