That lineup.. Frazier 5th. Ahhh....


Let's Go Yankees! Get this win somehow!!

200 avg and a 1.4 war. I can't wait to get him off this team.

Has been awful against lefties. Why is Cooper not playing first tonight?

I thought the exact same thing.

I think he might have good numbers against Sale. He also went yard off a lefty yesterday. But I agree with you, unless his numbers against Sale are really good.
How/why does Frazier bat 5th?  
Matt M. : 8/13/2017 7:28 pm : link
Not only is he hitting .200, but Didi is hitting over .300, one of the best hitters in baseball for the last month, and breaks up the righties in the middle of the lineup. With lineups like this, it is no surprise they aren't scoring runs.
Great

Judge just early on that pitch  
RasputinPrime : 8/13/2017 8:27 pm : link
and yanked it foul. Sale didn't challenge him after that.

Conforto is much more reliable though. He's a regular Derek Jeter that Conforto.

I don't know if I should respond, B. I got called out by some dude on the other thread for daring to respond to adamg's post.

But no, it actually wasn't him. Just Met fans in general comparing Conforto and Judge again since Judge is now struggling. Par for the course. Why compare the two to begin with, who knows?

Ah. Didn't read the other thread yet.

Maybe Mets fans have nothing better to do than make fantasy comparisons. Idk. And. Idc.

Weird lot over there in Queens.

No. Apparently, we have 'superiority complexes' because our first comparison for Judge isn't Conforto, a guy who Judge leads in just about every statistical average that exists, outside of BA.

Unreal.
When was the last time  
section125 : 8/13/2017 9:58 pm : link
Judge was ahead in a count? Seems always 0-2 and trying to dig out of a hole.

If he gets every slider that is 4 inches outside and breaks around the plate called a strike

As long as the upps are calling the outside pitch a strike he will continue to struggle. Joe needs to blow his top one night

Laz Diaz..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/13/2017 10:05 pm : link
can eat a bag of dicks.

He's given Sale at least 12-15 strikes on sliders curving around the plate, and then rings up Frazier inside.

As usual - a trainwreck behind the plate.

They are mostly all strikes. But I agree Sales plate is a little wider than Montgomery's was.

But the point is it is all pitchers with Judge. He is constantly 0-2. He either looks at a ball down the middle or swings at shit outside.
Both Judge and Romine..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/13/2017 10:07 pm : link
had had their at-bats start off with two sliders off the plate that get called strikes.

A disadvantage against any pitcher - against Sale -forget about it.

He doesn't even lead in BA this season.

They're virtually the same player... except Judge could be a 300/40+ home run/100 RBI/100 walk per year guy and Conforto's ceiling is Adam Jones with a few more walks and a worse glove.

It has been a few, not 12-15. For Diaz it has actually been decent.
