I was trying to make sure you are paying attention because for a poster who breaths baseball, you seem clueless about Martin and Moreno comparison.

 

Auston is better off replacing your boy Daulton swinging that hockey stick than Barfsho swinging his bat.

 

Dude, you didn't know who Martin was five minutes ago. Take the knee.

Kirk called that exact spot!!

 

Richards literally hit the spot Kirk called for. You got to question the fatty's IQ man

Hasn't been hitting a heck of a whole lot this season, has the pop though.

 

oh I know, he's been in a funk but looks like he getting back to his old self. I follow the Dodgers quite closely

it gets a little more complicated when analyzing catchers

 

No, it really doesn't. His pitch-calling is also ass and does not grade well. He has a good arm behind the plate and so far he has shown a pool-noodle at the plate with next to no power.

 

His lack of power actually started once he was promoted to AAA. He hit for a crappy .105 ISO in AAA despite batting .315. That has continued at the MLB level. He also doesn't walk much so unless he starts learning to drive the ball (his Statcast metrics are not promising) he will continue being a non-impact bat.

Arizona's 83 wRC+ catcher? Thoughts aren't that great tbh.

 

He is 23 but I am more in line of the possibility if they hang on to him and Gurriel as traceable assets this coming deadline.

 

Now we have more holes to fill and still having to carry the disaster named Daulton Varsho

Richards looks exhausted. He's worked a ton. Including a lot of extended outings. Might be catching up to him.

Richards had a fastball stuff+ of 48 last night...tonight might be worse. Teams will start sitting change, and it is very noticeable coming out of his hand tonight

How the hell don't we have anyone warming up with how disastrous Richards has been? If that was a starter out there, we'd have 10 guys ready in this spot...

How do know about his pitch calling?

 

He has a great arm and very athletic: pop times, framing and caught stealing numbers are viewable - if u need help let me know and I'll post it here.
