Yea no idea why he has run Brebbia out there over and over. Dude was ass end of the season and hasn't been good in the playoffs. [Reply]

They’re swinging for the fences with 2 strikes when you know the guy throws a lights out change up. So much of that shit nowadays in baseball. The Red Sox were unreal with 2 strikes last year. [Reply]
