Zavala needs to work a walk here.

Edit: another 3-2 K...

I always find that silly as well...what they are saying isn't going to help the hitter any way. I mean what are they saying? I am going to throw a curve ball and then 2 fastballs and a slider???

Crash: “Well, Nuke's scared because his eyelids are jammed and his old man's here. We need a live ... is it a live rooster?”

Crash: “We need a live rooster to take the curse off Jose's glove and nobody seems to know what to get Millie or Jimmy for their wedding present. That about right? We're dealing with a lot of s—.”
Larry: “Okay, well ... candlesticks always make a nice gift, and uh, maybe you could find out where she's registered and maybe a place-setting or maybe a silverware pattern. Okay, let's get two! Go get ‘em.”

Another off-speed pitch on 3-2 over the heart of the plate and now Zavala whiffs. I just don't get it, these guys are major league hitters, right? I mean, at the very least they should be able to put pitches like that in play, right?

It's really starting to feel like he's going to have his worst season in the bigs right after having his best season. Which isn't unprecedented, we just saw Jesse Winker do it two seasons ago.

It just makes no sense to me to have a leadoff hitter who blocks speed behind him if they both get on base.

There is little worse than an umpire calling a strike on a 3-0 pitch that's clearly out of the strike zone.

Absolutely. Well, unless he's Wade Boggs.
