Nice sweeping breaking ball from Hutch.

[Convo]

Hutch you sexy beast

[Orgfiller]

No... from his body of work.

 

What about his body of work? He doesn't seem like a lazy player, is it because he shows no emotions?

[fatcowxlive]

Cobb is hurting my heart.

 

No he's not, he's hurting your brain

 

Your heart is happy!

[fatcowxlive]

DFA Hutch

[John_Havok]

Contact hitter who can go the other way.

 

I think the better argument against Rasmus in the 2 hole is what we just saw. A strike-out prone hitter isn't a great bet to keep an inning alive for your #3 guy with 2 outs and runners on base

 

I still think it's okay against RHP, but he has to be more selective

Right now I'd rather give a better hitter more at bats, Lawrie has to prove himself

[gruber92]

Im not sure I would call Lawrie a contact hitter

 

More so than Rasmus is. I have no confidence putting the hit and run with Rasmus. Let him swing away in the seven spot.

[Jimcanuck]

Hutch not sharp but getting the job done.... me likey

[Stangstag]

What I want to know is how Tampa signed Loney so cheap. Gold Glove caliber and crushed for most of the season.

 

He only had like 1 good season, thats why

[Captain Adama]

What I want to know is how Tampa signed Loney so cheap. Gold Glove caliber and crushed for most of the season.

 

Because he's a first baseman and sucked for most his career?

Because he's a below average hitter?

Ok fair enough

[Angrioter]

Link please

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Throw strikes please.

[gruber92]

He truly is the dumbest poster on this forum

 

You got a f***ing problem? Seriously..

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Because he's a below average hitter?

 

Seriously though, Loney f***ing sucks. Zero power at all.

[Orgfiller]

I didn't say he wasn't trying. I was saying way to much inconsistency in his game. And he swings and misses to much to hit high in the order. Hes not worth the kind of money that people are speculating with him in my opinion.

 

While I agree that he's very K-prone, Rasmus will get some money in free agency, if we can sign him to a market-value deal then I would welcome an extension.

[theblujay]

Chill Hutch

[Convo]

Hutch not showing the same control he had in ST

[fatcowxlive]

Link please

2 walks in a row? DFA Hutch

[SpeedyGose]

Hutch's fastball command has been pretty sketchy so far, hopefully he gets comfortable soon

[bowld]

Hutch losing it

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Come on now Hutch...

[eastcoastjaysfan]

Hutch not showing the same control he had in ST

 

Because he isn't playing a bunch of major league washouts lol

[SpeedyGose]

Seriously though, Loney f***ing sucks. Zero power at all.

 

.389 SLG last year.

 

But, but, .299 avg!

[Orgfiller]

Has he thrown his changeup yet? Gotta mix it up a bit if the fastball command isn't 100%.

[Dylan]

Slow game

[Orgfiller]

WTF ump???

[SpeedyGose]

WOAH, come on ump #roboumps
