Given Acuna's slump, and the splits for Albies and Inciarte. Albies is crushing lefties but slumping a bit vs righties. Inciarte is doing good vs righties and bad vs lefties. This is why I would start Inciarte leadoff vs most righties and Albies vs all lefties. Albies bats second when Inciarte leads off in that case and Acuna is dropped down the line-up till he gets back on track.
This ump daaaang
Wasn't pretty but it was effective.

Good recovery as Folty was getting squeezed a few pitches that inning.

Suzuki did a terrible job framing the 1-0 pitch to Rizzo. It was at the bottom of the zone but he stabbed at it line it was a foot inside.

Yea he painted a few that didn’t go his way. I’m glad he kept his conposure.

True, but I think part of that was Folty missing where Suzuki was lined up. But looked like a strike at bottom of zone regardless.
Riley rbi single in 1st AB tonight.

It’s funny people spent so much time thinking about Camargo.
If the pitch was right at the glove there would be no need to frame the pitch. The whole point of framing is to not stab at pitches like that and make them look worse than they are.
Again, if Riley was doing that in a pitchers park in AA...he might do even better at AAA.
thethe was bound to be wrong about someone eventually
I love how competitive Ozzie is.
Acuna is soooo due...
Ozzie needed that, he has been crushing lefties but his OPS vs righties has been dropping. Hopefully he get hot from both sides.
Camargo career entering game...
319 PA .280/.331/.440. 1.2 fWAR
Not great by any means, but he has been an asset. Why not find out if he was real? He likely provides the same fWAR or better as Bautista with just his defense at 3b
Albies might lead the league in total bases and outs made in the end, which is pretty freaking funny.
Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.
Damn, we needed a big hit there.
