Staying away and allowing them to aim for the short porch was always asking for disaster He also stayed away and allowed 3 homers to the Royals to RF with wind blowing out. Doesn’t any coaches or TLR talk to Grandal or all pitches from the dugout? Also called fastballs to Sano and 3 homers resulted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 A lot of us may have overrated our team...or underrated the losses of Eloy and Robert, the loss of McCann (given the offensive numbers that Collins and Grandall have been putting up) and maybe we over-rated our bullpen. OK LaRussa, LaRussa LaRussa, but maybe we just aren't what some of us thought we were - a top tier team . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Line Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) These 3 games in New York will likely be our toughest series of the season. On the bright side, we've already gotten 4 in Boston out of the way as well as 4 in LA. The Oakland, Houston, and Tampa series will also be tough but look on the bright side. Win tomorrow and things are ok. Edited May 22, 2021 by Green Line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will Tony have his pitcher throwing at the Yankee infielder tomorrow? Tony better knock down a Yankee tomorrow. Same situation. BTW, since when did baseball worry about this showing up the other team so much? Astros cheating scandal, pitchers putting substances on the ball, stealing signs, figuring out tipped pitches. It's all so stupid and inconsistent. But up 7-0 throw a guy out at the plate? Time for a HBP tomorrow and bench clearing brawl. Get ready for Sox starter to get ejected early. If not Sox look even more like patsies under Tony, only worried about the opponent's feelings, not their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add the loss of Robert, and you have some big problems. Every team hits bad stretches. We will see how long this lasts and how things will be when they come out of it.

greg775 Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 The play at the plate is getting a lot of play on Twitter. Somebody better ask Tony about it. This is going to be just like the other incident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can only lead to possible injuries and players getting suspended. A team is supposed to keep the other team from scoring. Nothing wrong with the throw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagahRagah Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 52 minutes ago, tray said: DA: I encourage you to look at the video of Mercedes glancing down to the third base coach for a sign, seemingly ignoring it or blowing it off, and loading up for the meaningless HR already while up 11 runs at the end of the game. He pimped it a bit and all the gold necklaces jangling around his neck as he rounded the bases didn't take away from that perception. Forget what you think about LaRussa for a minute (and it has already been discussed ad nauseum) wouldn't it serve Mercedes better as a rookie to be a little more low key, more respectful and a bit humble? Or maybe that is another old school, unwritten rule that doesn't matter either. Now you're just literally making shit up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
