Four-game Series. Brooms have a way to go, mainly through Alcantra.

Re: IGT 06/19- Marlins at Mets - Bill And His Brooms

Before McCann went down, he was splitting starts with Nido on something like a 60/40 basis, and when he got hurt, that ratio continued with Nido getting the 60 and Mazeika getting the 40, but it's sure been a lot more Nido of late. He's hitting the ball hard but not getting the results. Mazeika just isn't hitting.



But look at Nido here, getting the call for a day game after a night game, against an All-Star quality righthander. He may have thrown a ball pointlessly into centerfield in the ninth inning last night, but he has the lion's share of Buck's faith.

a batting title in the minor leagues or am I thinking of something else?

No, that was Buck on Nido. I believe Edgy might have noted that a minor league batting title was slightly more germane than a Cub Scout merit badge. Doesn't really mean shit to a tree, but it doesn't hurt either.

Nido is objectively a terrible major league hitter, but he's (a) good defensively for the most part, (b) better than Mazeika, and (c) the only other catcher on the roster. So you play him.

My "no" was responding to KC's question "am I thinking of something else?" as in "No, KC, you're remembering correctly."



And Edgy you did not use the image of a Cub Scout merit badge, that's my rephrasing of your sentiment. You just allowed as to how winning a batting title in the low minors several years ago wasn't exactly the most reassuring praise of Nido's batting skills you could have possibly heard from Buck's oleaginous mouth.

That's certainly the way I was thinking.



I was also under the impression that Buck figured the lefty would be out of the game if and when Nido came up, so he would have Mazeika against a righthander.



But you need baserunners before you get the tying run up there. Letting Guillorme try to get on against an ineffectively wild lefty, and following that with Cahna and hopefully Tying-Run Davis seemed like the way to go, and a smarter play than trying to use those two guys to load the bases for Nido or Zeke as the tying run.
