fathom Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Shocking, not. Total collapse of late with RISP. Alexei gave himself no chance but to pull it in that AB. Completely undisciplined approach by so many hitters on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 22, 2012 -> 10:23 PM) Uh He froze up right after that ball was hit. If he gets a good jump, there's a chance he scores. With how we hit with RISP, you gotta take a chance sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was going to score as well, but hard to be mad at that compared to some of the other base running decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudyLawRules Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Alexei has no concept how to change his approach with RsISP. Just uppercuts and trying to pull it. Sooooo tired of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsideirish71 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Sep 22, 2012 -> 10:24 PM) Time to address the Beckham situation in the offseason. The fact we're falling all over ourselves over this month he has just had...is perhaps the most telling thing. There are enough issues to resolve on offense. I understand that a lot of people have a hard on for the kid because of where he was drafted. He is not the key to this offense. The blame for our inability to score runs can be seen from the top through the middle of the order. Our inability to recognize splits in the last month in particular for viciedo.
