This is Stearns biggest mistake > not fixing this Offense vs LHP. The Aguilar debacle hurt, but that was known early in the year. Freitas would have helped. So would have a RH bat at the deadline, but nothing. How can this be vs the Cubbies especially? To me, it’s a massive head scratcher.

The fact this team has to play Grandal at first as many games as it has is everything that is wrong with this season. 4 runs against Ray ain't happening. Take as many pitches as possible try to get him out by the 8th and hope.

 

Ray is already at 56 pitches. He's not pitching into the 8th

Have you seen Arcia and company? Some of these guys may have no idea that's the approach to take. Hope you are right.

 

Right on cue.

Ray on pace for 160 pitches to get through the 8th. Should be fun to follow.

 

Nolan Ryan scoffs at this.

 

We are going to be on pace for 180 soon here.

"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

So people want Grisham to start but are having an issue with him here? He doesn't have bad splits versus lefties and has pop in his bat. WAY too much is being made of lefty-lefty. This board is infected in the mind with this crap.

No, not really. Not having a bench righty to use against lefty pitching is a definite disadvantage. Grisham was one of the better options, but the problem is there just aren't any good options there.

Just because he doesn’t have drastic splits doesn’t mean he’s the best option to hit against a lefty. I would guess Perez has better numbers vs LHP.
