I blame Dicky for being his biggest fanSo is Straw just cemented in there?
He’s gotta be the worst full time hitter in baseball.

Put him on the short bus out of town then.Worst fulltime player in the last 40 years. Dude is special.
YawnAnd Straw is also the best defensive centerfielder in the league.

Since the break, we have played five playoff teams.
16 games, 12 on the road.
We've won 9 of 16. We've out scored those teams 53-46.
2 of 3 @ Tampa
2 of 3 @ Toronto
2-2 vs Houston
2 of 2 @ SD
1-3 @ Seattle
We are winning, because of elite run suppression.
Only one AL team in the last three years would not have made the present playoff scenario with one of the six best run suppressions in the league....last years Athletics.
Not giving up runs is just as important...maybe more so...than scoring runs.
He may take that as a challenge....look straw maybe bad.... but at least he isnt top 5 historically bad (dear god is that scraping the bottom of the barrel)
Chris Davis finishes 2018 with the worst batting average in MLB history after Orioles shut him down
Davis hit .168 in 128 games this seasonwww.cbssports.com
he would need to do another 11 for next 100 ABS in order to finish in the top 5 worst batting averages ever.
Somehow this isn’t reassuring.look straw maybe bad.... but at least he isnt top 5 historically bad (dear god is that scraping the bottom of the barrel)

Just as you don’t lose games giving up 0 runs, you don’t win any games scoring 0 runs too.And Straw is also the best defensive centerfielder in the league.

We still haven’t forgiven you for that.True story. I was at @The Oi's house watching this live.
We were both so flabbergasted that I ending up leaving in disgust without sleeping with his wife in front of him.
