Cody Bellinger GDT: MLB Debut @ 10:15 PM EST (LA Bellingers vs. SF Giants)

[P2F]

Kenley Jansen is so freaking good.

[FrozenRopes]

Solid observation, friend. I had overlooked this, but I'm not at all surprised to find out that he jogged so confidently. I think Bonds used to do the same thing.

 

A lot of Chris Davis there too...

Bellinger is going to struggle pretty hard for maybe two seasons before possibly clicking. Think Joey Gallo

 

If he ever clicks. Think Joey Gallo

why does this board have a love affair with Bellinger

 

I mean it wasn't as bad as Kalfus but still

1. He's good.

2. He has an interesting skill set.

3. The guys who own him in the forum leagues are really obnoxious about it.

I'm not really sure how Fangraphs works but do you know what these terms mean: wOBA, wRC+, BsR, Off, Def, WAR????

Does that mean Gallo is better?

I second these.

 

I'd like to share some of my own observations from last night's game: great approach at the plate, very good feel for the strike zone, made adjustments mid-bat and held his own against the electric Ty Blach, his swing will make him a star #legendCB, quick and athletic down the basepaths (beat out an infield hit), all-around smart player. It's basically a foregone conclusion that he'll be a star for the next 15 years.

[P2F]

I remember Willie Mays doing something very similar one time.

I missed this last night. This was a gem.

Bellinger's leading off tonight, playing LF.

[Spanky99]

Bellinger goes yard!!!

[HERPDERP]

his batting stance makes me uncomfortable

[Spanky99]

Bellinger again, B2B with Puig ahead of him, lol. Crushed!!!

[P2F]

Puig and Bellinger just went back-to-back.

 

Bellinger's was crushed off the foul pole in right for his second homer of the game.

[P2F]

Holy s***. Back-to-back-to-back. Justin Turner. Tie game now.

[P2F]

So Bellinger's two homers give him two more than Adrian Gonzalez has this season lol. Just sayin'. Edited April 30, 2017 by P2F
