Intentional or not, our pitchers need to start drilling hitters after this shit. Teams will be less likely to go up and in if they’re teammates are catching one in the jaw.

CC will and has but I don't know about the others. I agree though because it's nothing new. Judge has seen his fair share of inside pitches as well.

Proper talk indeed as the old Irish Priest once said. Ever since Torre & Girardi Yankee Pitchers have not administered some up and in chin music to keep hitters honest. The way they let Longoria and Big Slopppi dig in and go used to piss me off.
 
Final score: Yankees 11 Giants 5 Joe Harvey did the mop up job and not well.
 
7 run lead and Harvey come out there namby assing, damn it put them away. Damn good job by the Dollar Store Yankees 6/7, playing small ball and moving the line better than all of the super stars.
 
Cody Bellinger of the Dodgers current stats.

.422 14 HRs 35 RBIs

Pretty impressive first 30 games

The kids on an absolute terror of a tear.
Notice how Bellinger crowds the plate daring pitchers to throw him inside; and when they do it's long gone??!!

a league-leading 44 hits with only 14 strikeouts. 17 BB's, a .500 OBP%, 1.413 OPS & .961 SLG %

The other 2 big LA Lefty power hitters Pederson and Muncie are being platooned, while Bellinger is facing any and every kind of pitching.

If Bellinger put on 25 lbs and could maintain his bat speed, he'd be knocking Aircraft out of the sky....

Since Luke "you are my Son" Voit joined the Yanx; the 3 players in MLB who have a higher Weighted On Base Average are:
Yelich
Trout
Bellinger

wOBA is: (an overhyped stat??)
A statistic in baseball used to measure a hitters overall offensive impact by considering the relative values of each type offensive output from a single to a home run. Weighed On Base Average is calculated by assigning a value to each type of offensive output including walks, singles, doubles, etc. with the player's totals for each being combined and then divided by their total plate appearances to arrive at their w
OBA.
This all encompassing statistic is based on the idea that not all hits are equal as a home run is more valuable to a team than a single. The goal of this stat is to paint a fuller picture of offensive production of batters versus other statistics which can leave out part of the picture such as batting average, which only considers if the batter got on base but not how far they got on base. wOBA by weighting the ways of getting on base gives a fuller picture for example a hitter who hits all home runs vs. a hitter who only hits singles - batting average would be the same for both while the wOBA would be considerably higher for the HR hitter.

Assuming Voit plays an entire season uninjured; he's on a pace for 49 Hr's and 135 RBIs

If Sanchez plays a full year; which he won't; he's on a pace fore 200 negative events; (E+PB+WP)
