Myles is being shown that blazing speed is not enough to be a good baserunner. Or outfielder.

I hope he’s learning.

I like him. He seems like a good lighten the mood clubhouse guy.

He just has to get better.

Not sure what you guys expect from a guy who is playing regularly at this level for the first time. He is getting better.

He has been getting by on pure athleticism most of his life, now he is having to learn how to get better.

Stanek doesn’t have it.

And in today’s episode of “how many posts in the wrong thread can we get before someone notices” the answer is: 2!

Not everyone noticed. I see “Hidden Reply” posting.

In other shocking news, Cabrera is a Brave!

Tks to you & your compadre, Mark!

Giving Straw the benefit of the doubt it seemed that HPU jumped right in front of Correa’s symbol when Straw was looking at him, but he still should have seen it/been aware of the situation.

I understand his being blocked by the ump, but a slide should have been automatic even without a signal. The ball was hit sharply, and Gurriel was throwing.

100%. No point being fast if you’re not going to finish the job.

Right, and running straight up into a late and high swipe tag is a bad look.

That look Correa gave Straw said, “What the fuck are you doing.”

Funny… That’s exactly what I yelled at the TV.
