He's my most enjoyable player to watch on this team. Quality consistent playroyal_k;1482771 wrote:I have to agree with Laley about Brantley. He has gone 200 strait games without making an error and leads the league in OF assists. I can't think of another LF having a better year.

Agreed...kinda surprised he is hitting below .280. Seems to smooth and smart to have slumps

It's really only bourne and kipnis hitting any higher than Brantley.
...Maybe raburn is in the mix there too.

Just had that 0/14 stretch. I was glad it was versus the Marlins, cause he usually bounces back with a .500 series after a cold stretch. Hopefully he does that these 4 games!wes_mantooth;1482790 wrote:Agreed...kinda surprised he is hitting below .280. Seems to smooth and smart to have slumps

The boys came to play some defense tonight. Defense, pitching, and timely hitting is a good recipe.

Kluber coming out for the 8th? Closing in on a hundred pitches

How did they get the error? They really need to cut down on those in this season ending run.royal_k;1482795 wrote:The boys came to play some defense tonight. Defense, pitching, and timely hitting is a good recipe.

It was a double for Cabrera down the line, but because he is limping, he was stopping at 1st. Stubbs didnt know that and tried to barehand it and it took a really weird ricochet off the 2 corner walls and Miguel then went to 2nd. Not the typical error we have seen recently.Con_Alma;1482799 wrote:How did they get the error? They really need to cut down on those in this season ending run.

Yes, no question. But have Smith ready with the sinker if we need the double play ball.wes_mantooth;1482798 wrote:Kluber coming out for the 8th? Closing in on a hundred pitches

Yeah, I dont agree with it either. He never touched the ball. Its like the dive that turns into a triple...not sure why this is any different, honestly.Con_Alma;1482802 wrote:ahhhh yes, I didnt know they ruled that a single and an error.
Especially since Stubbs was rightfully playing it like a double. If he comes up with the barehand, he has a shot at 2nd (in his mind, Cabby is running like normal).

I missed the beginning of Underwood saying it as Kluber left (he said that many were giving Kluber a standing O), but it's either 24K or 34KTBone14;1482796 wrote:Anybody hear the attendance? Could be more there but it is a Monday night I guess.

Smith, for hopefully a DP ball.
Gotta be 34k. A good portion of the Upper Deck is full.ts1227;1482811 wrote:I missed the beginning of Underwood saying it as Kluber left (he said that many were giving Kluber a standing O), but it's either 24K or 34K
