All aboard the hype train

[Laika]

Bo and Vlad are going to be on a tandem BA cover next year, aren't they?

[Ray]

Bichettes bat speed is something else.

 

I wonder if his brother tanking really did end up affecting his draft stock.

[Pendleton]

All aboard the hype train

 

[P2F]

Pretty sure your post broke the board for, like, five or ten minutes. Dat hype.

[mtljaysfan]

How lucky we got Bo Bichette in the 2nd round!

 

We might have 2 top 20 prospects by this time next year.

Would be nice, both jacks Oppo Taco, love it.

Would be nice, both jacks Oppo Taco, love it.

 

That was a healthy cut, thin with that opposite field power. Beautiful

s***, I thought Lansing was in New York State for some reason. That's way too far for me but not that bad for your Upper Canadian folk. You guys should do a board road trip.

[glory]

I've always been a Vlad believer, but damn if Bichette turns out to be a top prospect too, then that would be awesome. Bout time the Jays have some top position player prospects.

[Laika]

Vlad's body looks a lot better in that clip ^ than in some of the past videos.

[RealAccountant]

Remember the Lansing 3, this is even more hype.

[baubau]

I recall reading somewhere that Bo would tone down his leg-kick but he had no leg-kick on that HR.

[Laika]

I recall reading somewhere that Bo would tone down his leg-kick but he had no leg-kick on that HR.

 

Yeah he's turned it into a little toe tap/twist thing.

 

I'm not a huge fan of those. I think they are worse for timing and rhythm than a leg kick.

 

He made the change between March 20 and 23 this spring.
