8/20 Beat the MFY

[scottyno]

It wasn't a strike objectively or subjectively in any dimension. It also seemed like a make-up call for the top of the zone ball which could have easily been a strike by King earlier in the AB.

Junior Valentine deserves all the scorn he will get.

He already got a "makeup call" if you want to call it that on strike 1, ump called 2 balls strikes that ab

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

GOT HEEM!

 

[TFisNEXT]

Siddown Aaron!

 

[mauidano]

Took A LOT off of that pitch to K Judge.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Pivetta is throwing a lot of gas today. Lots of 96-97

 

[scottyno]

Usually umpires are pretty old before they have a serious negative rep. Valentine is way ahead of schedule, so we will get to complain about him for the rest of our lives. Good times.

Hopefully not, there's only so much longer MLB can hold off robot umps when we see blown call after blown call in real time and they already use them in the minors

 

[mauidano]

The MFY hitters are all launch-angle swingers. Merloni is right; "Boom or bust".

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Lame

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Shoulda stayed with the off speed stuff, Nick

 

[LogansDad]

FUCK

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Kind of had a feeling that was coming.

 

[budcrew08]

Try prime video. And lololololol

Thanks.

 

[JOBU]

Fuck

 

[TFisNEXT]

Wasn’t even a bad pitch.

 

[mauidano]

Damn he went up and got that!

 

[katnado]

Can't even be mad at Nick, that wasn't a bad pitch at all.

 

[LogansDad]

Hopefully not, there's only so much longer MLB can hold off robot umps when we see blown call after blown call in real time and they already use them in the minors

Based on what I am seeing in the minor leagues, teams are allowed 2 or 3 challenges. I doubt Valentine could get close to the under on that one.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

 

[patinorange]

Can't walk that guy.

 

[budcrew08]

Will Flemming was complaining on the radio about how all of the calls have been going the Yankees’ way. If he’s bad, I’d want him to be bad both ways.

 

[Van Everyman]

I hate Kiner-Falefa's last name.

There, I said it.

 

[LogansDad]

fuck fuck fuck

 

[mauidano]

Great move by Reyes to hold Bauer.

 

[mauidano]

I hate Kiner-Falefa's last name.

There, I said it.

He's a kid from Hawaii.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

GOT HEEM!

GFY, IKF

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

STFD IKF

 

[dhappy42]

He's a kid from Hawaii.

So what? He’s a MFY.

 

[InsideTheParker]

I hate Kiner-Falefa's last name.

There, I said it.

You have something against hyphens? You think two last names is one too many? It makes you hungry b/c you start thinking of falafel? What?

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Shortporch one, Reese!

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

This guy (Valentine) is a problem

 

[LogansDad]

FUCK

OFF

JUNIOR

 

[S. H. Frog]

Ump is struggling

 

[shawnrbu]

Nice bat flip.

 

[budcrew08]

This umpire sucks so bad. Maybe only Angel Hernández is worse.

 

[Salem's Lot]

This guy is so bad.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

This ump is a chode.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Reese flipping that bat with sauce for Junior

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

I’m waiting for a HBP to be called a strike.

 

[TFisNEXT]

Make them pay

 

[mauidano]

King's little dip before he comes set is beginning to irritate me.

 

[JohnnyTheBone]

Is there anything the great Pablo Reyes can't do?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Pablo is in the circle of trust. He just is.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Hate the bunt.

 

[YTF]

How great is it to have a guy who can execute a bunt?

 

[JOBU]

King's little dip before he comes set is beginning to irritate me.

Really? For me it’s his face.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Hate the bunt.

I do too but they are going to call for it given how they are hitting. Bunts always suck though.

 

[Van Everyman]

You have something against hyphens? You think two last names is one too many? It makes you hungry b/c you start thinking of falafel? What?

It seems like a lot of work to say a name for a player like him.

We should all give McGuire a hand.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Why are we bunting?

 

[budcrew08]

Hate the bunt.

Reyes turns the lineup over for Dugie and Devers. Not a bad idea.
