    Jake is a 4th outfielder. Anything we get from him at the plate is gravy.

    Same here. I should've said something while posting about Valdez.

    Taylormade situation for 2 innings of work.

    Would rather have had McHugh. As I suspected Valdez ran into trouble.

    After the bases loaded 1 out fiasco where Hinch let Jake ruin another scoring op I chalked it up as a loss and took a nap.

    So... Who should have pinch hit? Stassi? Injured Diaz? One of the pitchers?

    Maybe a bunt to score a run and stay out of the dp but that’s just me.
    He struck out on a pitch that hit him in the leg earlier if that aint telling you it’s not his day at the plate.

    Why do so many people think that a bunt is an easy play to execute? It’s not. Especially with a force at home.

    Because one out is better than two, and other posters think Jake sucks at the plate @Nick
