Arrambide has been just as good defensively lately as Hernandez

In fact, Jay all but admitted he was a better pitch framer the other day.

I dont load the bases because you can pitch around and if you walk him it happens then you have to lock in and it didn't happen

You can stop there. You 100% load them there. The guy had two triples versus you.

He hit a 4 inch off the plate change up and almost homered. You 100% walk him there. It’s not even a thought.

They had the game winner at third with one out. Loading the bases introduces another way to score - a free pass - but it also brings in the double play. And as someone else pointed out, the guy they walked was on fire with two triples in his last two ABs.

Just read your comment in another thread stating Arrambide should not have been in the game.

Maybe don't load the bases??????????????
Maybe don't spike the ball

Maybe don't throw a meatball for a game tying HR.
Maybe score more the 5 runs vs a pitching staff that is giving up 15 a game over the last 3 series
Maybe don't get punched out at 3rd twice in the same inning.

We gave up 6 in a Johnny whole staff game that should be a LSU win every time.
Our batting has fallen off.
Don't post facts. All the Pump Ptangs when facts are posted. They can't handle the Truth.

Two weeks in a row he throws that 86 mph change up thigh high. Better find a different location. The free bases are what killed the pitching. Our lineup gets shut down so easy; and it is mostly our "best" hitters, and last night it was against a terrible staff. The amount is swings and misses is terrible.

Yes it was a terrible pitch in the other batters box, but if the catcher isn’t on one knee, he would’ve had a better chance of at least knocking it down enough to stay away from the backstop. No catcher can move side to side or jump up for a high pitch if the catcher has a knee on the ground. Ben McDonald isn’t a fan of it, and neither am I.

Tongue in cheek

Ball was a wild pitch anyway. Not on the catcher

No it wasn't tongue in cheek.

You said Arrambide should not be in the game late if its close then you said he's as good defensively as Hernandez. You flip flopping just like another poster. Goofball stop posting


You really think Bide should of stopped the ball when it was 3 feet from him.

I know it was a bad pitch by Cowan, but I want Hernandez back there in a close game. Not worth the defensive drop off for one or two ABs.

I have been hard on Arrambide as anyone, but that was not his fault.
