Jeff made a good point, no point in running him out for 7 especially if we score again here

yeha I mean I get the reasoning, he just seemed hot and we've got like 30 more games in a row so taking rest where you find it can't hurt

course at this point we can just run out position players

let Acuna pitch

this Sobotka guy has a future I think, even if he loses a pitch or two, there's a lot to be said about a pitcher with a 1.000 average and 2.000 OPS

If a pitches was to get their first MLB hit today, I didn't expect it to be a reliever. Good job.

just straight up not pitching to Realmuto is the smartest thing we've done this game

We have a reliever hit and a pitcher RBI today. And Acuña keeps hitting the ball.

not just any starter, but Folty, who is like the platonic ideal of the pitcher who just swings three times to strike out and walk back to the dugout

Epic High Five
Jun 5, 2004



freeeeeee DONK

he's more hot/cold than the rest of the lineup but the fact that despite this he is always around .325 says a lot

I do wonder if moving him around to help him bust out of a slump would work for him like it does so well for Inciarte

Epic High Five

always interesting to me how Snit is happy to let Folty go to 120 or so pitches but everybody else gets pulled a 95 almost without exception

I hope this series puts him in the ROTY chat in a serious way

yeah it's Marlins but he's doing it to EVERYBODY on their staff, including the good to decent ones, and was hot coming in

Youngest in history to lead off 3 games in a row with a home run!

Dr. Gitmo Moneyson posted:

If he leads off again tomorrow I might try to get a ticket to the next game and try to catch a leadoff homer ball.

I have no idea how I’d be able to afford that, or get to the game, but I might try it.

no don't because if you are there and he doesn't hit one, that means it was your fault and we'd all rightly turn on you and exile you from the subforum

just caught Acuna's donk #2 and holy hell this kid's power, he barely got that thing and it just leapt into the stands

An Atlanta/St. Louis wildcard game would just be nonstop leadoff dingers and infield flies, wouldn't it?
