What happened on Bregman's error?
Often wrong, but never in doubt.

"Let's throw the batting average out of the picture and let's say someone told you in spring training that Altuve would hit over 20 HRs and drive over 100 this year. What would you think? And you go ahead and think your own thoughts."

The end.

Can we discount the possibility that Ashby is a deep-cover performance artist?

Runner at 2B, chopper to Bregman...Bregman charged to try to get the short hop, but he whiffed at it and the ball went under his glove. His momentum carried his into the runner. The ball went into LF, and there was a play at the plate, but Bregman was called for interference and the runner awarded home.
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

In his defense, he said that as Altuve grounded out on the first pitch and they were going to commercial break.

Rays breaking it open against the pen...9-3, still batting in the 8th.

I think it's time for Tony Sipp to call it a year.  Maybe our best reliever this time last season.

Reed has the slowest bat I've ever seen on a major league hitter. It's like he can barely lift it.

Bat speed seems to me to be variable. His first ML home run was on an outside-corner 92 MPH at the catcher's eyes, and he had an outstanding 11-(I think)-pitch Spring Training AB against Scherzer.

Gurriel should show him how to attack the ball.
