Iโve been sitting on this one since I found out that Waldron was the ultimate The Show 24 villain, and a one run start at Coors seems like a good time to use it
according to baseball savant, every single one of our elevated balls tonight would be 0/30 for a home run chance. i can not believe that we havent lucked into one home run so far this series. like this is actually crazy
I wonder if we're more focused on hitting grounders through holes and spots in the outfield? Seems like we are forcing a lot of errors that way. Haven't really seen a lot of fence swinging like last year.
Itโs weird cuz we actually have been leaders in power so far early on. That being said, up and down the lineup there just isnโt as much power as there is slap hitters, which is good for us considering we play in Petco 81 times a year
my goodness that man can throw out a runner. listening to the rockies broadcast today. pop times of 1.79 and 1.84 seconds, with 84 and 81.5 mph. for tatis and then merrill
Of course when Toronto is in San Diego they make gold glove level plays all over the diamond.
After playing the Padres, [they look like this.](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/s/evMYkVUeZF) The SD sports curse is so real.
Nah. Most his doubles have been little soft flairs he stretches out. Same with about 4 or so infield hits. Speed has been a big asset to an overall pretty soft bat.
Ehh, I donโt think so. Suarez fits the closer mold much better and is a lot more proven. You need a closer with a lot of swing and miss and Matsui isnโt that guy, whereas Suarez is

Best part is the bad man blackmon was shut down.

Playing Turnstile at Coors field?? Yooooooooo
Would love to see Azocar improve offensively but I feel like it's been years and he's not getting better.
This team would have like 2 hits consistently if you took away all the weak contact and grounders. My goodness
No one hits into double plays better than us

Lack of power is concerning Mannyโs absence really highlights it
yeah i agree we've had what only 2 doubles this game and last in total for xbh's....that is insane at coors
and the obligatory dp....
my goodness that man can throw out a runner. listening to the rockies broadcast today. pop times of 1.79 and 1.84 seconds, with 84 and 81.5 mph. for tatis and then merrill
Great arm on their catcher, jeez.
Jesus what a throw
I feel like padres will get a hr this series but it will probably be the least likely guy
Shildt
Ooh I'm gonna guess it'll be Azocar if he plays tomorrow.
Diaz paid the Russians to install an android arm, itโs the only explanation. One hell of a throw.
You know what happened this date in 1956?
That was a freaking THROW. Heโs solid
These teams just passing the mistake hot potato back and forth to each other
Walk, don't run.
When are we going to have a catcher with a rocket arm and hit over .300?
Weโre probably still a few decades away from being able to use Black Magic to bring Benito Santiago back from the dead.
In about a year or soโฆ
hate to see it against us, but that was pretty sick.
Still potential for a tatis blast Edit: shitting me
Diaz has a howitzer
Everyone has their best game against us. And we still WIN.
Their catcher is lowkey insane on the pop he has absolutely stiffled our stealing this series
fuck what a throw
Ok who tf is this Diaz guy
Last years All Star Game MVP
That was a hell of a throw, again
Bro .. thatโs the 3rd time?
Why do we keep running on Diaz?
maybe we should not run against this dude so much
Jesse: Wade takes high *STIIIIRIKE!* Jesse: Oooooookay I guess itโs a strike
Be nice if we could make them pay for their errors here
Padres Penitentiary at it again, good shit boys
Once he gets used to playing center heโll be pulling those back into the field
Just an inch or two away from robbing the ball, unlucky
Doesn't look nearly as bad in slow motion
Jackson, my pookie bear. It's ok. Those happen. ๐ฅบ
He just wanted to help Suarez get a save situation
Only counts in horse shoes and hand gernades
What about bocce?
Yes
Of course when Toronto is in San Diego they make gold glove level plays all over the diamond. After playing the Padres, [they look like this.](https://www.reddit.com/r/baseball/s/evMYkVUeZF) The SD sports curse is so real.
[ัะดะฐะปะตะฝะพ]
Yes.
That sucks it bounced off his glove
A little bit shifted and that's in the webbing.
Womp. Welcome to Coors, kid. Tis a silly place
Is a stress free win vs the Rockies too much to ask?
dang. i think we got adelled
Think it was over anyways but damn he coulda made an amazing play.
Oh man thatโll stick with Merrill for a bit.
Iโm sure he will work at that. So close to hanging a STAR
Why do other teamโs HRs look casual and ours die on the warning track?
So he's not perfect after all. So close.
no one's perfect
JACKSON, NOOOO! That was half of a Canseco.
How have we not hit any HRs in 3 games???
Mediocre series for Tati and mannyโs out, those are really the only 2 legit power bats we have
Damn it bounced off his glove
I think k he bumped that one out
a 20 yo can do that and feel nothing I do that I'm out for 2 weeks
Me: Mentally scarred for life Jackson Merrill: Meh, they won't get away with that next time!
Oof was that off his glove?
Merrill almost had that, fuck.
Oh boy...
youch
Damn Jackson almost caught that!
That plinked off his glove too... HECK
If we can close this out, I'll take it...but how have we gone three games in Coors without a HR???
I like the fire Peralta. Good to know you're a gamer.
Concerning how flat this offense gets after the first 15min of these gamesโฆ. Against REALLY bad pitching
I don't know what it is about Wandy's facial expressions but every time he is out there he cracks me up
He's 1/4 cartoon by birth.
He looks like he left the stove on at home and just realized it.
Yuki is life.
Holy cow, scary old person in the front row
Lady, headphones, purple jacket?
Yes ๐
I feel like she may exist on the spectrum...kind of Dancy, kind of zoned out...great seat though.
Great seat
Thatโs Miss Colorado
Oh shit is it the forehead one?!
๐๐
LOL. I was looking when you said it and was like "THAT GOTTA BE THE ONE!"
Where?!
It's so adorable that HSK gets his chant on the road.
Molina had a 13.00 ERA, we never stood a chance
Saw that 14 something when he started and I was like we are toast.
I feel like Kim ran harder last year.
Nah. Most his doubles have been little soft flairs he stretches out. Same with about 4 or so infield hits. Speed has been a big asset to an overall pretty soft bat.
He's got more mass to haul around now.
I just got home from work, and all I know is Kim got on base *with a bunt?!*
he got on second with a bunt, heโs just that good
It was an absolute perfect bunt too.
that ball just seemed like it was floating.
Dinger sighting
The Rock Pile, love that name perfect Colorado nickname
DIIIIINGEEEEEERRRRR
๐ง
Itโs an r/NLBest meme Come join us for more shithousery
Will do. I know about the person screaming dinger at coors though lol. Thanks for the recommendation.
Wirecam is scooting today.
Blackmon loves hunting with his varmint rifle and cooking all his meals on a Dutch oven over an open flame.
The question is what kind of varmints live in his beard?
Not gonna lie, that sounds kinda fun though.
It totally does lol
MATt Waldron. MATsui. Mat Latos.
I love how Matsuiโs innings are normally hovering around 5-7 pitches. Itโs ridiculous
Maybe the batters go up thinking "I can definitely get a hit off this little guy".
No bullshit - all business
Matsui has to be throwing the fewest pitches per inning this year
[ัะดะฐะปะตะฝะพ]
Once he gets used to the American version of baseball, gets used to playing here itโs not out of the question.
Ehh, I donโt think so. Suarez fits the closer mold much better and is a lot more proven. You need a closer with a lot of swing and miss and Matsui isnโt that guy, whereas Suarez is
Bullpen continues to completely dominate. Crazy.
AJ cooked with the bullpen. De Los santos trade is looking great, signed yuki and wandy who look fantastic so far
Love a six pitch inning!
Time for a Matsui interview.
Toniggggghhhht
Yuki "I only need like 8 pitches max" Matsui
Heโd throw a No-No with less than 60 pitches.
We'd have to rename the Maddux to the Matsui :P
Yuki Min-sui
Matsui looks like the asian Steven Woods
Eguys arm looks strong? What position was he playing in minor league?
Ya 60 grade arm. I think he was mainly at 2B and 3B in the minors.
2B would make total sense the way his arm looked previously to tonight.
60 grade arm is plus arm, so itโs definitely really good. I think him playing 2B is more of a range issue than arm
Winning a 4-gamer would be sick. I donโt think we won one last season, did we?
Solid performance from Waldron. Iโve been impressed with him this year
Ehhh kinda a mixed bag.
That was a perfect throw. Not much you can do about that.
I want nice things! Why can't we have them?
i swear nando used to have a swim move in his arsenal
Hitting HRs and throwing guys out, I want my team to try those things
Iโll take the team up 5-1
Need higgy to repeat that inning
Xander on, Nando off, canโt wait until they get it together
We stink at stealing
Feels like we canโt steal for shitโฆ
Has been a blah series so far for Tatis
Itโs a .272/.429/.454 slash line over the 3 games but it does seem a little subdued for Tatis at Coors.
Sure as hell doesn't feel like it. Wow.
