  1. The rule is completely open to interpretation and is at the umpire's discretion, in situations like that it's never going to get called. I get why they did it but it's pretty much a non rule.
  2. I agree it appears he was but technically the rule is the catcher can't block the "pathway" of the runner,without the ball. Dozier clearly had a lane to the plate.
  3. Hmm, could be, to be honest I didn't notice.
  4. He can block the plate if he has the ball, he has to give a lane if he doesn't have it yet.
  5. My goodness......that was something.
  6. This is a rhetorical question....right?
  7. Ellsbury wasn't the only guy who misjudged that hit Dick.
  8. Vargas is the same height, but around.
  9. http://s2.quickmeme.com/img/a0/a07ca365935972150757e9c9086e3d2b9eb2ec9952d64c7d41dca37d9381f80b.jpg
  10. Oh, I think he probably struck out plenty back in the day.
  11. Only 400 AB's, hope the Yankees get a good look at this guy first.
  12. Can you call in a relief pitcher in the HR derby? He should have, holy hell, when's the last time that dude threw BP?!
  13. When I have a good beer I often say "not too shabby" to describe it. The same applies to baseball players.
  14. Yep, pretty much this.
  15. Concur, these are my go to's if I happen to not be able to catch a game. Love them!
  16. This was always more relevant than his leg kick/no leg kick thing. The guys load and start to his swing was a hot mess. He's way shorter to the ball and is able to let the ball travel a little deeper on him. Nice to see
  17. Oh, we won't , not a problem.
  18. Leg lift, no leg lift, toe tap, no toe tap, I agree for that part of the swing just find something that feels comfortable, which can sometimes change over time as well. His bigger problem in my mind is his swing is just too damn long, his separation when he loads back pulls his hands way to far behind him and his movement back to the ball is too deep, down and around. His pitch recognition also sucks. If he wants to learn something from Mollie, you'd think it would be how to be short and quick to the ball. Molitor was so minimal in his movements, he just kept his hands and elbows relaxed and inside the ball and went straight back and through, always kept his hands over his feet.
