The defensive stuff really is like nothing I've ever seen before. I'm open to the idea that they aren't as bad as some metrics say, or that it doesn't matter so long as they are outpitching and outscoring teams. But errors are errors (both physical and mental).

Interesting three of the top four teams in errors are all serious contenders though (the Pirates are the other, Padres are fifth).

Regardless of whether or not fielding is less important now than in past seasons, there is no reason to not try to improve the defense and certainly mental errors are something that needs to be addressed. This is something that can be improved with effort.

I continue to be amazed at the extreme shifts being used. The Phillies just had Franco playing just to the left of second base, leaving almost the entire left side of the infield open.

With all the coaches and mental skills consultants teams (and this team in particular) use now I'm sure it's not for lack of trying. But you're not gonna be able to find enough practice time to rewire someone's mental approach or relearn defensive fundamentals (whether physical or mental) in the middle of the season. And some of these players just are what they are.

Nice job by our Jake today. If they're gonna lose 1-0 at least it's not to some Padres rookie.
