Nice picture of Adam Jones.

 

Looking a little more 'white' then i remember.

 

I also like how Tulo is first among 3B in HR, I mean with the season he's having you can't just limit him to one position.

They should figure out a way to reward distance as well.

 

I'd take one jumbotron destroying missile over 10 wall scrapers any day.

For all of you that like to group Mexicans and all Latin American players, what you just heard is what separates Cubans from the rest, that accent is spot on for everyone from the East side of Cuba, geez that's strong.

ESPN doing their thing, while showing the stats that Wainwright leads in, they of course pick HR%, nothing like showing an unsustainable stat to praise a player.

Lol, according to the bottomline Stanton has more 450+ feet homeruns this year than any other team.

It makes sense. If you don't have the talent necessary to hit the ball that far you're not going to ever do it. Few guys come close to Stanton's power. It's like how Mark Buehrle isn't going to mix in a 93 mph fastball every now and then. His arm isn't capable of doing that.

 

Stanton really is a special talent. Hopefully he wins advances at least to the third round so we can see him hit some bombs.

Unattributable too. The way the general media/public thinks of run prevention is annoying. The pitcher can only control so much!
