Give that man low changeups all dayStanton up 2-0 and striking out on balls was the most predictable thing ever

You can see the wheels in his head spinning on those "routine" plays. Glad the final out he hit Goldy in the chest with the throw.I hope Volpe's not heading down a Knoblauch path (although it was funny as hell sometimes).
Those routine throws, he just looks like he's pushing the ball, stuck in a mental rut.
I'm more angry when Goldy doesn't make the scoop as opposed to Rice.As a former defensive wizard at first base, I'll say they're not doing him any favors.
That said, he's not doing his first basemen any favors either. Short arming routine throws. If it's a more difficult play, he seems to make a good throw. Stops and thinks too much on the easy ones.
Wells single.
Grish bunted and got Wells to 2nd.
Wells thought it was the 3rd out and walked off, and got tagged.
Is this whole team brain dead?
You can tell early in the AB when he's in full on swing mode.It sounds idiotic but Stanton being up there was the last guy you wanted, that was the most predictable outcome
Inexcusable. But even if you're not sure there's scoreboards all over the place. Does the 1B coach really need to remind the runner how many outs there are? Also if he thinks there's two outs I would think the bunt attempt would tell Wells to rethink that, but that's too complicated for someone who came up through Cashman's system. You notice the guys like Bellinger who weren't infected by the Yankee system don't make these mistakes and generally play smarter.Just saw that Wells play. That’s absolutely insane for this level of baseball. That’s worse than JR Smith not knowing the score.
