[82birds]

pitched around Nado to get to Burly

[Ronnie Dobbs]

Oh God. Bases loaded for Burleson.

[ggnoobs]

I'm ready for them to DFA Burleson. Horrible

[swatski]

Oh God. Bases loaded for Burleson.

Not any longer

Yep. I know people say protection is a myth but as soon as Arenado came up I told my son they are going to pitch around him to get to burly

[scoutyjones2]

Jesus bumbles....he's walked multiple batters and you swing first pitch. Bench him or send him down. That's pathetic

[Alex Reyes Cy Young]

Drop him to AAA would be fine with me.

[cbcloud]

...Cards 0-for-8 with RISP today... Baseball gods frowning on the team... Maybe tomorrow...

[makesnosense]

So why do the Mets pull their starter there?

89 pitches

3 hits no runs 89 pitches it's ridiculous.

What is so ridiculous about it?

Why take him out?

Since you are not going to answer the question I asked, I’ll answer yours.
He three 23 pitches that inning and hit a batter on the 23 rd. He was tiring and the manager wanted to get out of the inning. It may seem crazy but the Mets are trying to win the game.

I did answer the question I guess you can't read.

I guess you don’t understand answer, because you didnt. so there’s that.

I understand.

I disagree that he HAD to come out.

My answer was earlier to 12xu.

Read it.

Then I need to pay better attention. I thought it was the correct move and was responding as such. My bad.

[swatski]

Oh look their mega star who won game last night robs Burleson of a tying two run single.
Can’t compete until we get a couple of those for ourselves.

[cardsfaninla]

That was sad.

[Ronnie Dobbs]

Good God, if they can't find the heart to do either of those things, could they at least STOP BATTING HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ORDER!!!???

this ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

[Alex Reyes Cy Young]

Good Lord that was a bomb!

[Whatashame]

What would make any of us think that Burleson would come through with a hit there. Usually walking the bases loaded in a 2-0 game is the kiss of death but not here.
