I'm guessing that Rizzo, Baez, and even Bryant had in their careers more than one stretch of 30 games where they hit less than .200. Pitchers change how they pitch to batters. The good hitters change to be able to keep up. Lets see if Wisdom and Ortega are able to.Quote:

Correct about both Willson and Rivas' ABs.-One bad call by ump and one bad swing decision.Quote:

They REALLY need to start to enforce the 12 second rule in MLB. There's just too much "dead time" in baseball. And while they're at it, starting enforcing the stepping out of the box after every pitch to jag around with their gloves, bat, helmet, etc. If they aren't going to enforce them, why do they have the rules?Quote:

Javy is ****ing mashing with the Mets l. Almost up to a 1.0 OPS now, and 830 on the season.
They should add some kind of texture to homeplate. I've seen so many players slip or twist ankles when running across the plate. I think Rizzo did this year.

My only hope now is that he completely disappears and isn’t involved in Baseball in any capacity. Anyone who tries to ruin a persons reputation and calls them an anti-Semite (WTF?) should have no role in Baseball in retirement.Quote:
