Confused why we PH Jones and not Beloso in the 9th

Not trying to Monday morning QB, but it's just odd with all the K's and needed 3 runs

Because those 2 lefties Arky threw are really good and brutal against left handed hitters.

Every leftie not named Tre Morgan was 0-8 vs their lefties with 5 strikeouts.

You know what you have in Beloso, and it benefits the team to keep Jones involved and maybe spark a hot streak in him.

Should’ve pinch hit for Pearson the inning prior

That logic is correct, but we also bat Pearson in the 2 spot against a lefty the whole game.

And PH a righty for him in the 9th down one, it was simply a righty for lefty move, don't overthink it

This.

Doesn't anyone pay attention to how Jay calls games? It's almost always the matchups both hitting and pitching.

Looked to me that good lefties do that all the time.

Except that's exactly what you are doing. You are the king of overreactions on this board.

How's SC doing btw?

Not really. He is much much more selective than most managers. Then again he is LH heavy and lacks quality RH bats

Our 2 best hitters are righties, and the hottest hitter on the team currently is a righty

Man you guys absolutely blow my mind. Beloso would’ve looked worse than Pearson against these lefties.

Now list the RH hitters on the bench

Jones
Kling
Frey
Hellmers
Merrifield

All guys that can’t really sniff a start right now

I would have gone Kling over Jones to lead off just from a speed standpoint. Splitting hairs though.

Travinski was on the bench most of the year, Jones was on fire for half the year, Kling was in the lineup more often than not before his injury

Because we were pitching a lefty slapdick. None of our left handed batters can hit left handed pitching outside of Morgan. Blows my fricking mind why we didn’t start Kling and put Morgan in left field and Jones at first. They would’ve been acclimated to the game and not asked to pinch hit. So tired of the stupid shite we have to watch. The changes are so simple to make.

Yeah and Jay will still run out left handed fricking hitters. Jobert is fricking trash. Pop up or HR.

The only pinch hitter, called by Jay, in recent memory that worked out was Travinski against ol miss, other than that, every one he’s called since resulted in an out. And Travinski likely should’ve been started all along. Dude is stroking the ball since getting regular playing time!
