Gdt: Vladdy's first dinger @ san francisco giants

[saskjayfan]

come on Smoakie....grand slam time

[gruber92]

Vladdy's swing is insane.

[saskjayfan]

professional at bat there....great job.

[Jonn]

Atta boi. Lets keep the f***ing line moving

[gruber92]

Good thing Bede turned us down.

[Angrioter]

Beede not signing with Jays was a great help for us.

[baubau]

Smoak now has a 17.3% BB and his career walk rate has been steadily increasing the past 3 years too. That is pretty sexy.

[gruber92]

We needed something from Grichuk or Galvis there.

[Solaxys]

That's a lot of LOB in 2 innings with 1 out.

[Brownie19]

Davis covers a lot of ground.

[gruber92]

Not sure Grichuk makes that catch.

[saskjayfan]

Davis covers a lot of ground.

 

Davis really looks good on the defensive side...hope he can start getting a few hits..

[gruber92]

Holy f***, Moronta is Sandoval's long lost twin.

[Orgfiller]

Not sure Grichuk makes that catch.

 

Unless he gets a better jump on the ball than Davis did.

[Carlos Danger]

Two observations/questions:

 

1. Why didn’t Vlad get the silent treatment for first HR?

 

2. Are the sunflower seeds still embedded in his hair. Will he ever get them out?

[M.E.]

As a person that doesn’t like Wilners call very much I am happy Ben Wagner got to call Vlad’s first bomb. Wilmer would have been way over the top with it like Vlad first game when he flew out a Wilner made it sound like he hit it through the roof.

[Carlos Danger]

Unless he gets a better jump on the ball than Davis did.

 

Davis is a better CF. Stop, period.

[gruber92]

Unless he gets a better jump on the ball than Davis did.

 

That's what i was thinking. Given the same break though, i don't think he closes in on that.

[gruber92]

Davis is a better CF. Stop, period.

 

Where did he say he wasn't?

[Orgfiller]

Davis is a better CF. Stop, period.

 

Okay? Did I say he wasn't?

[Orgfiller]

Damnit, Trent gave Panda his first walk of the season.

[gruber92]

Belt looked horrible in that AB

[Carlos Danger]

Okay? Did I say he wasn't?

 

Fair enough. Just you are talking about jumps on the ball.. I mean that is part of D.... Not sure what the example was then?

[Orgfiller]

Thornton's secondaries have been filthy tonight. 7/26 swinging strikes on the curveball (27%), 4/23 on the slider (17%), 2/10 on the change.

[Orgfiller]

Trent Thornton is an elite contact hitter wtf.

[tbad]

The sunflower thing is really dumb and needs to stop.

[EdwinsParrot]

new leadoff hitter

[Jonn]

The sunflower thing is really dumb and needs to stop.

 

Agreed so wasteful. Not a good look.

[Deadpool]

That didn't look comfortable at all.

[Orgfiller]

new leadoff hitter

 

Sogard-Thornton for the elite 1-2 punch.
