I'm just happy it's actually in our favor, even if slightly, which makes sense, blue was very generous in the 1st and some other innings to Hunter.Mr President Elect said:I think there is probably a little margin on these around the edges, as they never seem as bad as when watching the game. Also, whenever there is an egregious one called against Alvarez as there was yesterday, it seems to sting a bit more.Prosperdick said:Umpire: Mark Carlson

I'm shocked this doesn't look worse. I expected a complete crap show and it wasn't as bad for called strike accuracy as the idiot who did the Ranger game a few days ago. Granted it's still way below league average.
As always, the robo-ump can't get here soon enough.

He's nice story but he shouldn't be playing.jkag89 said:Probably. I still like seeing Corey getting some playing time.Beerosch said:jkag89 said:
Who should sit so Dubon can play? He has not played 1B, at least not at the MLB level, so unless he has been taking reps there that really isn't an option as much as we might all like it to be.
****ing Julks was at DH over Dubon yesterday. That throws this entire argument out the window.
.254/.271/.351 with a wOBA of .271 and xwOBA of .249. Having a wOBA equal to your OBA isn't good. And he's outperforming his own metric which is really not good. His BABIP is .346 so he looks semi lucky.
He's had 2 barrels all season which is 3 less than Abreu. If he had enough PAs to qualify that would rank in the bottom 5 of MLB.
wRC+ 69. fWAR 0.0
I know less than nothing about defensive metrics but his UZR is negative and I don't think that's good.
But it's clear Dusty has a raging woodie for him so he plays. Add it to the list of things Dusty should not be doing but does and generally gets away with.
Yeah. I just took a look at his numbers. meh at best. Both Dubon and Julks are so very likeable you just want to see them succeed. Same for Chazz and Meyers.
That is one thing we've done well with is having guys who the fans can easily root for.
A's starter today has a 10.17 ERA and 1.96 WHIP. Wonder how far down that's about to go.

Julks has been a nice surprise, but Dubon has been better at the plate and in the field & I'd rather see him get those reps.
Julks strikes out too much and doesn't walk enough. He needs time back in Sugar Land. I think he'll get there but he isn't there yet.
Why Julks should be sent down
Meant to post this pic yesterday. From Friday nights game. Is that #7 Dante Pastorini? (Sorry for quality…just iPhone pic of TV)
Bring in the bottom 1% of the most important stat on there isn't a good thing?
Just fan stuff

This is the way
Gig em Stros
Framber back is his favorite blue jersey
Nasty movement and good velocity on the fastball today
an economy of pitches in the 1st
Great start - 3 outs on what, 7 pitches?
Beautiful

We'll either feast on him or make him look like a Cy Young candidate

Clear balls to altuve
That should count as clock violation when the dugout is being a *****.
AB with the room service grounder
Especially when they're blatantly wrong

Bregman keeping it in suspense with an easy GIDP after a four-pitch walk.

Mrs. Marvin severely reprimanded me for my recent attitude towards a certain player and coach, which leaked outward to the Atros offense in general, so I am not allowed to post negative comments.
That double play, for example, darn the luck. Go get em next time, Breggy. I believe in the spiciness of your salsa.
Leadoff walk and didn't get a runner to 2B. Yipeeeee!
Mrs Marvin is a smart lady.
But gawd almighty Breggy has gotten slow. He used to be pretty quick but he's got to be bottom 1/4 of the league now.

They are ragging on Framber for not covering but Abreu didn't help. First he didn't need to go get that ball and second that was a horrible feed.
$h%t toss by Abreu

Bregman has always been slow. He got slower with the hammy pulls.
Go back and look. He wasn't slow at all when he was first called up. His speed numbers have fallen off a cliff the last few years
Someone will have to look up the numbers, but he was fast his first few seasons.Bregxit said:JPN06 said:

Framber has clearly worked on that play. He's made it several times this year. Good for him and the coaches for fixing that.
Still get nervous watching him throw it but glad he seems to have fixed it.
