I hate sending Gomez there. 0 out... and too high of a risk for injury with a home plate collision (especially the way Gomez plays)

 

As we have seen countless times, EVERY run counts for this team.

 

Once our bullpen hits the mound (yes, it has been better as of late), we can't score enough insurance runs.

Segura is starting to show how special a player he's going to be.

If not for someone with a complete lack of personal and professional integrity deliberately choosing to smear him, there is no "scandal".

 

agreed, however, it happened, it's out there, and it could be the sole reason he doesn't win the award.

 

what a bummer.

Yep, fully agreed with both of your comments. Just highlighting how much of a bummer it is.

I think it will 100% depend on what the Brewers do. If they make a miracle run into the playoffs, then I really think it will be impossible for him not to win, even with how much the media hates Braun. If they don't make it, then it's an easy excuse to vote for Posey or somebody else.

And it is statistically high that you will score with a guy on third and 0 outs. Probably the same statistical probability as getting thrown out in that scenario. Definitely not worth the cost of potential injury.

I had a good laugh on ESPN earlier today. Braun wouldn't hit as many home runs at AT&T Park according to some mouth breather Giants fan.

 

When I pointed out that in 66 at bats at AT&T Park, Ryan Braun has a .364 AVG with 8 doubles, 2 triples, 6 home runs, 14 RBI, and a 1.227 OPS, he shut up. One home run every 11 at bats. Apparently, Braun doesn't have the same difficulty hitting the ball out of park in San Fran that Posey has.

Looks like the Astros aren't going to give us any help tonight. At least the Pirates will be in the rear view mirror (at least temporarily). Lots of doubleheaders coming up this week after the weather today.
