Dansby Swanson- 6 for 14, .429, 4 2B, 1 HR, 1 BB, 3 SO vs. Zach Eflin

I’ll likely go Swanson and Yellich

Dansby Swanson- 6 for 14, .429, 4 2B, 1 HR, 1 BB, 3 SO vs. Zach Eflin

Hopefully Dansby can get it going for 2021 today

Yep. I usually pick above average players. I often get burned by the best guys since they get walked so much. Also, I try to take opposite hands so LvsR and RvsL. Highest I ever got was 18.

 

[shiv]

Blackmon - 1 for 3
Bellinger - 0 for 4 ouch
Freeman - 0 for 3 wheeler buzz saw
Molina - 1 for 3

Sunday suggestions?

So do you get to pick just one? Why did you offer up 4 guys? I’m about to download the app

Is this the right app?

Yeah, that’s it.

Damn Berrios was nasty yesterday

 

[shiv]

@BLatta12 it cost you anything to double down?

Dueling no hit bids

 

[BLatta12]

@BLatta12 it cost you anything to double down?

Negative, just the risk. I normally double down unless I’m at a high streak.

 

[shiv]

I’m going with DJ Lam and Mookie. No real reason, just getting my feet wet

 

[Sparty1045]

I switched to Yellich and Merrifield

 

[shiv]

DJ has pulled through. Up to mookie to get me off the blocks

 

[Sparty1045]

I get rid of Swanson and he gets a hit.

 

[BLatta12]

Can’t go wrong with those two. Especially with Mookie coming off a night off. He’s hungry and it’s at Coors.

 

[BLatta12]

FYI, one other route to this is to ride a single player’s hit streak for a period of time. In 2016 Jackie Bradley got to a 29 game hit streak.

 

[Sparty1045]

Streak up to 2. Did well today.

 

[BLatta12]

Swept by the Phillies... What a great way to start of the season.

That umpire behind home plate is blind. Ringing up Braves low and then outside all game long.

Tigers are 2-1. Probably the only time they will be above .500. Be happy you got the Braves, fam.

Alight got my streak started! Gonna stick some random guys in there for now and will come back and see what y’all say

Data is from last 3 years for respective batter versus opposing starting pitcher. Both batters are on 2021 3 game hit streaks.

 

[Sparty1045]

Currently have Bregman and Yellich but I might change it later

 

[Sparty1045]

This Trevor Williams pitcher for the Cubs is throwing a gem against the Brewers. Yellich may only get one more at bat. F’in Trevor Williams?

Good call

Yelich f’d me over today

Same here. I didn’t expect Trevor Williams to pitch a perfect game through 5 and then intentionally walk Yellich in the 6th.

4/6 Beat the Streak Suggestions

Trevor Story (vs Luke Weaver) 4 for 11, 2 RBI, .364 AVG, .455 SLG - 2021 3 Game Hit Streak

Back to a two game hit streak. You run Story and Didi @BLatta12 and @Croot_Overlord

I did. Gregorius got a knock already, 1 for 2. Story and the Rockies are on a delayed start.

Only had a 3 streak going, but lost it. It hurts. Can't imagine losing a long streak

Nice. Lead us to the promise land.
