9 years later we’re hurting for bullpen and moar bunts

Ron Swanson 09-16-2024 08:25 PM

I can't stand Garcia, was he even running hard?

MJ is nearing the top of my list of worthless ****s.

2 on with no outs, lets don't BUNT them both into scoring position. Why would we do that? :rolleyes: :shake: Coaching is having a bad game I guess.

TomBarndtsTwin 09-16-2024 08:26 PM

Right down the middle of the ****ing plate and he does that. :facepalm:

Now 4-12 on the night with runners in scoring position.

Why Not? 09-16-2024 08:26 PM

That would require a living, breathing manager. What we have is a howdy-doody who will forever owe BWJ for his upcoming MOTY award.

Speaking of gasoline on a fire.

Maybe I'm dated, but seriously at what point are analytics getting in the way of common sense? One run game, takes the double play off the table, sets up the sac fly. It's dumber than shit not to bunt them over in the bottom of the 8th.

With a batter that's barely over the Mendoza Line. Qtardo strikes again.

Thanks Cora, you dipshit.

cmh6476 09-16-2024 08:31 PM

That helped. Make em pay

TomBarndtsTwin 09-16-2024 08:32 PM

Just need to get a guy on base and give Bobby a chance to be the hero.

TambaBerry 09-16-2024 08:32 PM

Come on royals

KCUnited 09-16-2024 08:33 PM

I remember one time Dick Howser being asked why he would have some of his better hitters bunt in situations like that.

He basically said...."we play team ball around here".

I don't remember seeing him ask George Brett to do it many times because Brett was clutch. But I do remember him having Frank White and Hal McCrae do it a few times to get the runners in better scoring positions.
