The guy with the highest OBP is the guy that is getting squeezed for playing time. Donovan still has a .397 OBP.
But as for why Edman has dropped in the order – the last 28 days he is sporting a .273 OBP. That’s not getting it done.
August 14, 2022 at 2:30 pm #195502Carlson started off the season at lead off which didn’t work. He’s seems dead in the water lately to me too Steve 60. I guess O’Niels at 2 to wake him up. Hasn’t done nothing much with the bat since coming back from rehab? Edman has the speed but I always thought if they taught Sosa how to bunt and chop he could lead-off but Whitey Ball is no more.O’Niel has speed but maybe he needs the DeJong treatment?
August 14, 2022 at 2:30 pm #195503CardFrance…The only guy they’ve found is Eddie. He’s 7th in the NL in runs scored with 71. He needs to work his way back into the lead-off slot where he belongs. I think he will.
August 14, 2022 at 2:36 pm #195505@CIF – They are trying to find a leadoff hitter who can get on base at a decent clip
And who have they found?
We don’t have one.
August 14, 2022 at 2:37 pm #195507Gscotar hits the Bingo!
August 14, 2022 at 2:39 pm #195508TO with the solo tater to tie the ballgame!
August 14, 2022 at 2:39 pm #195509A blind squirrel just found an acorn!
August 14, 2022 at 2:42 pm #1955101982 willieParticipantHeck of a play by their third baseman. Nice shot by O’Neil. Got a new game now.
August 14, 2022 at 2:43 pm #195511I think Dylan Carlson should’ve matured more before he was brought up. And O’Neil, should’ve been left in Canada
August 14, 2022 at 2:43 pm #195512bccranParticipantEdman is the prototypical lead off hitter. Switch hits, has speed, steals bases, etc.
August 14, 2022 at 2:43 pm #195513LOL Steve60! He must be there to make the triple threat! And the big boys both put wood on the ball too. There’s hope yet- new game!
August 14, 2022 at 2:44 pm #195514Let’s be generous now. The game is tied. It’s a happy moment.
August 14, 2022 at 2:44 pm #195515I agree bccran but hes gotta do it. Great defense too!
August 14, 2022 at 2:45 pm #195516Mikolas gotta hold on CIF !
August 14, 2022 at 2:51 pm #195518Edman is the prototypical lead off hitter. Switch hits, has speed, steals bases, etc.
Except for his career, he only has a .319 OBP.
The player you love to bash, and say can’t hit, has a career .320 OBP.
August 14, 2022 at 2:52 pm #195519Just seems Carlson does so much better batting 6 or 7! Every time we put him at lead off his stats go straight down! Edman has best avg on team after 2 big boys! He should be lead off until he crumples to 230 or below which I don’t think he will! They won’t leave Carlson at lead off much longer IMO!
August 14, 2022 at 3:03 pm #195520Double, SB, IF hit. It may be a good thing to put that in front of the big kids that carry the big bats.
August 14, 2022 at 3:05 pm #195521Good move to ph2 Knizer for oh Dickerson crept he struck out on 3 straight fastballs. Can’t get a break. This Bush guy closed last night.
August 14, 2022 at 3:07 pm #195522Mikolas has sure rebounded nicely from his last turn in Colo. Nice work today.
August 14, 2022 at 3:09 pm #195523Just one run. Just one.
August 14, 2022 at 3:12 pm #195524DC with the go ahead solo tater!
August 14, 2022 at 3:13 pm #195525And that’s the one! Rah Cardinals!
August 14, 2022 at 3:14 pm #195526Never mind, let’s keep hitting Carlson and O’Neill 1 and 2! Lol!
August 14, 2022 at 3:15 pm #1955271982 willieParticipantWell Carlson comes through, now O’Neil gets on. Maybe we can get some extra insurance. Mikolas has pitched a very good game today.
August 14, 2022 at 3:15 pm #195528I thought TO had a chance to be standing on 3B with 1 out.
