@Phillip_027 @BKSportsTalk Based on the lineups he projected, I’d have to believe that is his guess.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@BKSportsTalk So who’s sent down?

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@DealinTheCards @joshjaco98 MLB shows Singer with a 6.18 ERA

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@joshjaco98 Is this real?

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@bthompson48 loving the wombat discussion. In middle school, my tournament basketball team was named the Winning Wombats. At the time I didn’t even know they were a real thing.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@AdamAkbani I think the fairly clear approach is to change nothing about Herrera’s usage, and swap out Pages for Crooks. Then you get Crooks and Herrera.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@STL_Stats_Facts @d16_mike What’s the reasoning for that claim? There’s not really anything he does above average. I get most backup catchers don’t do anything above average, so maybe that’s just it. Herrera/Crooks at C, and Pozo in his role. That makes Pages AAA depth. Won’t happen, though.

@KareemSSN @The_Ryan_Shull Against RHPs only, it’s about 27%. In May it is 23%.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@Boltjolt @inhoclupo @TalkinBaseball_ Which means that they can’t overturn it. By that angle, it very much appears the glove hits him before he gets to the base. The call on the field was Out, so that’s why it stood.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@LovelandSZN @Zhoops44 Your team is the one that underperformed. Your take lacks all reason and logic. It would appear that you’re the one “coping.” Iowa exceeded all expectations. What do we have to cope about? Sounds like you’re projecting a bit. But, troll away 🫡

@turnstylerock @STLSprtsCntrl I don’t think you’re saying what you’re trying to say.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@Padreshub @HopeSpringsATL @Teddymac44 @balkwhisperer I get that. I’m wrong. I’m not sure how, though, considering I’m quoting the rule book.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@Padreshub @HopeSpringsATL @Teddymac44 @balkwhisperer “Or that, while on or over fair territory touches the person of an umpire or player…” Straight from the rule book.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@andyharry819 @RayKrocsGhost @J_Rueb15 @balkwhisperer The second paragraph is in regards to a fly ball, not meant to immediately backtrack what was just said in the previous paragraph. That would be a very strange way to write anything, especially a rule book.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@andyharry819 @RayKrocsGhost @J_Rueb15 @balkwhisperer There are half a dozen “or” options. No, it doesn’t qualify for all of them, but it qualifies for one, which is all it needs.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@andyharry819 @RayKrocsGhost @J_Rueb15 @balkwhisperer Your previous comment, prior to asking the question, was about fair balls. Most of the comments in this thread focus on fair balls. “Obviously” you know what you’re thinking and what you mean, but it is silly to assume that others can read your mind.

As to your question; foul.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@andyharry819 @RayKrocsGhost @J_Rueb15 @balkwhisperer Not sure why that would be obvious. We are discussing fair vs foul. Distinctions are incredibly important here.

[Gavin M @STLCardsFan95]

@the1who_schafes @dancingbearfeat @Cappin_Commie @Ecnerwal23 The problem here is that two things can be true. What matters is what takes priority. If a ball is even by a fraction of an inch in fair territory, it’s fair. Foul is only if it is entirely foul.
