1 hard hit ball, bro?

 

I thought the one Melendez hit to teo was smoked but it might just have been teos route.

[Stangstag]

Oh Vlad

[Solaxys]

Sigh, Vlad man.

[DigitalRock]

Vlad ugh

[Terminator]

Vlad and his fat butt waddling down first into GIDPs is getting old

[Spanky99]

Vlad's kryptonite... GB pitchers.

[Dagagad]

That one was fine to swing at. Just rolled over it.

His HR's aren't though...

[Daniel Labude]

Almost like an elite ground ball pitcher gets ground balls lmao

[Effit]

Does Tabby really not know that weather apps exist.. wtf. lol

No you were right, that's the only hard hit ball thus far.

[el duque]

That or great changeups

[Dagagad]

No you were right, that's the only hard hit ball thus far.

 

Really? I thought the one Bo caught was hit hard? My bad.

[Omar]

Whit Merrifield stopped aging in 2012.

[nowayjose]

Doesn't feel like Vlad has been pretty unclutch year. It always feels like he hits his homeruns when we have a two three run lead. Early in the game always seems to get out.

"Now back when I played what you'd do is you'd grab a newspaper on the morning of gameday and read the weather section. But I never really trusted that as a player. So what'd I'd do is lick my finger and point it in the air. And then you can really get a feel for where the wind is blowing. If it's blowing out I might try to go for a flyball. If it's blowing in then I'd go for a line drive. But another way to do is to just grab a handful of grass and throw it in the air. That would give me a lot of information as a hitter before I stepped into the box. A lot of hitters I knew did this."

Nice DP

[Spanky99]

Great play Vlad!!!

[Dagagad]

What’s the record for double plays in a game? We are quite a pace.

[Daniel Labude]

Great play by Vlad for the double play

[DigitalRock]

Great play vladdy

[EdwinsParrot]

[frizzer1]

Vlad has been awful with men on base.

What is going on with him?

[Dagagad]

Vlad has been awful with men on base.

What is going on with him?

 

Variance. To me his approach has been basically identical.

[Daniel Labude]

Keller 3 swings and misses last game. Teo 3 in one AB lol

[Spanky99]

Really? I thought the one Bo caught was hit hard? My bad.

 

No, just 76.9... the expected BA was .900 though, was a great play.
