John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 In 2011 he did start going the other way a lot more. But when you're already one of the best hitters in the game why would you want to totally change your approach? But let's just say he can be an intelligent guy, maybe not intelligent baseball-wise sometimes. I agree he's probably a smart guy. He came from a well to do family and was well educated. Baseball IQ though leaves a lot to be desired.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 the homers are sounding really stupid talking about Rasmus change in his starting position. It's where it ends that is a problem. he finishes with his bat on his shoulder and his head hanging on his way back to the bench.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Also a tendency to air mail the cutoff man. Well the skills are there defensively. Just needs coaching, and he may already be more effective than when we last saw him.
Governator Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Rasmus should just go up to bat with a massive sign on his helmet that says, just throw 3 sliders and lets get this over with.
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Boy, if Gose could just learn to hit he really would be a big league talent. I only care that he can get on base enough to be a threat, though his SB% in the minors is concerning.
jaysfan2014 Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Did Buck just say Boston is 13-13? What a dingbat if he did.. the Sox are 13-15, .5 up on Toronto, and 1 up on last place(Tampa). And the division's gonna get tighter, as the Yankees are losing again to the punchless Mariners.
G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Rasmus should just go up to bat with a massive sign on his helmet that says, just throw 3 sliders and lets get this over with. I know Anything with sink and he just swings right over top of it. Every time.

G-Snarls Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Jose Reyes: Getting paid about $150,000 / game to do jack s***. He'll be fine
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 He'll be fine Will he? Will he be able to hit triples again? Will he be able to steal bases again? Will he stay injury-free? Will he provide plus defense? None of these things are certain.
wardhenke1 Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 When Lind comes back there's literally no spot for him. You're right. Where would we be without treehugger?
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 You're right. Where would we be without treehugger? Huh?
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Pikachu not having a good game... again.
John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Not sure why Navarro thinks he's a slugger. Looks like that bat is swinging him....
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Will he? Will he be able to hit triples again? Will he be able to steal bases again? Will he stay injury-free? Will he provide plus defense? None of these things are certain. Yes, he'll be fine. Give him another 2 weeks or so with the hammy and we'll probably start to see him run again.
Daniel Labude Jays Centre Contributor Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Terrible lineup managment....navarro is not an rbi man....why in the world is he hitting 5th
wardhenke1 Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Huh? Sorry, I can't think of Lind these days without thinking of his 'transcendental' one-with-the-universe approach to hitting he started last year.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Not sure why Navarro thinks he's a slugger. Looks like that bat is swinging him.... Thole needs to get more games. especially after Navarro plays like s***. Navarro has been getting lazier since Kratz got sent down. he needs to feel threatened.
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Terrible lineup managment....navarro is not an rbi man....why in the world is he hitting 5th RBI man... Wut?
jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Terrible lineup managment....navarro is not an rbi man....why in the world is he hitting 5th Yeah. We need to get JPA back. He's a true RBI man.
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Sorry, I can't think of Lind these days without thinking of his 'transcendental' one-with-the-universe approach to hitting he started last year. Lol... you lost me, what do you mean by transcendental ?
saskjayfan Old-Timey Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Sorry, I can't think of Lind these days without thinking of his 'transcendental' approach to hitting he started last year. lindy rules....465 OBP...but Francisco has been done a nice job filling in...I'd rather have Francisco than an 8th bullpen arm.
Governator Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Thole needs to get more games. especially after Navarro plays like s***. Navarro has been getting lazier since Kratz got sent down. he needs to feel threatened. Navarro is batting .410 in his last 10 games and hitting over .300. We could always trade him to Texas for JP if you'd prefer.
o2cui2i Community Moderator Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 Buehrle with 72 pitches through 5. hope the offense can give him a win. he needs to go CG and not give up any more runs.
Convo Verified Member Posted May 2, 2014 Posted May 2, 2014 lindy rules....465 OBP...but Francisco has been done a nice job filling in...I'd rather have Francisco than an 8th bullpen arm. Sure I'll take him as a PH, but the problem is he can't really do anything else... except maybe 1B
