Because the switch hitting slugger Santana needs to be in the lineup everyday since obviously he has a favorable matchup every time he comes to the plate.

wearing the old man out, shows when he bats left-handed ,  2 cents

I thought the first of those--watching Alcala turn a 4-0 seventh inning lead in Texas last Sunday into a 4-5 deficit,  while Rocco picked his nose in the dugout--had potential to change the season. 

So far...

 

 

That was the catalyst to some bad baseball… and of course head scratching managerial decisions. What’s a downer in this series is Atlanta is missing half their team, so the injury excuse won’t cut it.

Shocking

[Patzky]

Finely tuned German engineering there on both ends

[Blyleven2011]

This is the inning we need to score ...

[Patzky]

Cmon guys. Twice we've had a double with a guy on but no speed equals no runs 

[Aggies7]

You’ve got to score on that FFS

“Eddy rarely expands” says cory

You can’t expand if you don’t usually swing

And it is not just Julien. We watch guys on opposing teams swing at pitches out of the zone that they like (like Olson's 3-run homer off the plate inside) while our guys are infected with waiting for the perfect pitch. But even more than that. They often don't even offer at the perfect pitch, because they it is too early in the count. They are looking for walks and help from the umpire, that can never be counted on. I miss baseball where players wanted to drive a runner in more than walk.

Watkins strikes again

Max needs to score there.

He should have never started stopped Max. Not with Max not running well. Twins are not very well coached.

Watkins had the stop sign up, that's why Kepler slowed. Then changed his mind,  then changed again.

Martin cannot put his fastball in play and they knew it

[Aggies7]

This team is done.

[USAFChief]

We're getting shutout by Spencer S. of the Braves. 

And it's not Spencer Strider.
