2023 Season | Series #49 | Guardians at Royals | Sep. 18-20, 2023

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
1/2 way though this game.. and 2 runs separate the teams.. Giolito has been getting away with it for the last three frames.. but.. if he can make it through this inning..then it will have been a decent outing.. At least one of the runs are unearned.. and he walks the lead off man.. again..
 
Nice stop by Jose.. gets the out at 1st base...
 
Andre Knott has suggested/stated that:

Hunter Gaddis is slated to start against Baltimore tomorrow..

Bieber is slated to start on Friday...

McStix is slated to start on Sunday
 
Angel Zerpa shutting down the Guardians, lol.
 
...and Wild Thing walks the tight rope.. but gives up nothing.. if he could just have a clean inning every once in a while... Alas, he's not that kind of "shut down" RP... Onward we go...
 
Gallagher Tena Calhoun Laureano all start. Freeman must be very happy to be on this team. Tito has really passed his expiration date.
 
I'm still all the way in on Gimenez. Gonna be a perennial Gold Glover. 30+ steals. If he can just have like a .750 OPS...
Going into today, Gimenez' career OPS was .747.

He has been worth 4.6 fWAR per 600 PAs.

Even in this so called off year, he is gonna have an fWAR of around 3.5.

In terms of fWAR, he is the second best 2B in the AL this year, behind Sieman.

I will gladly take that over the course of his contract.
 
that's what happens when a catcher tries to back hand/pick a ball in the dirt instead of blocking the ball....allows the runner to move up.. couple that with the walk, starting the runner.. ball not blocked allows the runner to go to 3B.. and comes home without the benefit of a hit..

It's catching like this.. that contributes to losing..

The two singles subsequent to the run scoring.. will "obscure" this deficiency..
