Which one of you threw a dildo on the field?

[DigitalRock]

A contender is going to blow their load for Giles at the deadline. In the meantime we can blow our loads watching him pitch.

 

A win/win.

LettheballFly most likely.

[Jonn]

Oh no

[Ex Player]

He throws it away

 

For crissakes, he better not be injured

[Orgfiller]

Tim Anderson had no business hitting that, hope Giles is alright because this has been an unreal level of dominance.

[DigitalRock]

Please don't be hurt.

[Deadpool]

That could have been worse...

No Buck, you don't hit .325 by not hitting anything hard.

TBF they weren’t saying don’t aim to hit it hard. They meant that if even the pitches you don’t hit well fall in for hits then you’re going to have a high average - which is technically correct.

Buck was actually trying to say that given the speed of the runner, you'll be able to earn some cheap base hits.

Fap Fap Fap Fap Fap Fap Fap Fap (Vlad HR)

[Ex Player]

Vlad's defense at 3B still needs a bit of work though

Way better than I thought he would be

[Ex Player]

Way better than I thought he would be

His arm yes, his fielding no.

 

But that's okay, he is still a kid and he will get better

[Captain Adama]

His arm yes, his fielding no.

 

But that's okay, he is still a kid and he will get better

 

Not necessarily, fielding has a tendency to peak very early.

 

Obviously, if Vlad loses like 20-30 pounds he could become more agile, but that's no guarantee.

[BlueRocky]

I think if he hits the way he's projected to, we would all take a modest 40 on Vladdy's fielding, and he might be better than that.

 

There's a chance he'll stick at third for the first couple years.

We've already seen his plus arm and he's not so slow for a chunky dude.
