How many runs do you think they can score before Hanley's homer lands?

I don't really have any concerns about where people play in the field, it tends to work out. Look at what's happening right now: 2B are playing LF and RF, a 1B is playing 3B, and a SS is the 1B. Now they're looking at playing a C in LF.
And despite all that, the defense is actually good.

Papi is absolutely smoking the ball They say it's contagious, pretty much the entire lineup has been smoking. Outside of the catcher spot, Mookie has been the worst regular hitter on the team with 89 wRC+ Everyone else is above 100 Even in the games they haven't scored many runs there were some hard hit balls and they just got BABIP'd.

Including tonight, the offense has scored 5 or more runs in 19 of 32 games, or 59.375%.

Bullpen's going to be strained pretty hard here the next couple games.

He's a really good player I think. He's got a .347 BABIP this year so far, which is a little higher than before. However, I think it could be close to sustainable as he is hitting more line drives and hitting them harder this year, and while not fast, is a good runner and a lefty.

There's not much that's more annoying than a half-swing double from Didi Gregorius.

Clay's favorite past time is giving up runs immediately after the offense scores

How long do you guys think the pitchers will keep up their 10+ K/9?

And then Owens walks him on strike 3. Alright I've got my umpire complaints out of the way for the week.

Some of those pitches called against Holt were atrocious. Good for him to get at least a sac fly with arguably the bigges strike zone ive ever seen for a hitter. Yeah he took 5 balls in that AB. Pretty bad

Mookie is locked in right now. Whoever guessed he would come out of his slump, good on you lol. Can I make a prediction that he'll lead the league in runs scored this year?

I really like how so far there doesn't seem to be any black holes in the lineup. Even the worst hitters in the lineup (Hanigan or Vazquez) usually put up professional at-bats. Besides the catchers if Brock Holt is your worst hitter with the 98 wRC+ he had last year you should be in good shape.

I've posted this before but David Price typically starts the season slowly. His splits by month show it pretty clearly.
