  1. That isn't true at all imo. JPA has the same kind of raw power that EE has when he keeps his swing short, so he's going to hit a lot of them regardless. Better plate discipline would probably increase his home run numbers if anything.
  2. Maybe the pitchers DO love throwing to JPA. As fans that's something we really have no knowledge of.
  3. Next year is a deeper draft though (supposedly), so punting the pick to next year is just fine.
  4. Kawasaki has good at-bats, but he's had terrible results vs lefties. So has Boni, but he's been marginally better than Kawasaki and gains the platoon advantage. It's a defensible (but meh) move.
  5. Let's NOT bring Molina back. He has no bat, and is something like 2nd or 3rd behind JPA in passed balls this year. McCann or Ruiz would be nice though!
  6. Lol @ the NHL draft. The booing is starting to get to Bettman. "I have a trade to announce, do you want to hear it?" (sarcastic voice like he's talking to a 5 year old)
  7. EE has a sore hammy by the looks of it. Was grabbing at it a bit.
  8. Wonder when we last had both catchers on our team walk in the same game?
  9. Lol, something about all the boos for Bettman that makes me smile Guess he's not even popular at "home"
  10. Miggy with another home run. Unreal.
  11. Their pitching as a whole may be mediocre, but their starting staff is 2nd in the AL (at least in ERA).
  12. Many don't seem to have the plate blocking skills (or they don't want to get run into). Pitch framing seems to be hit or miss, but may have more to do with the pitching staff's command which could explain why many catchers aren't good at it when they first come up.
  13. The blocks were legit, and his pitch framing seems to be visibly better after he had a day or two with the Jays roving catcher instructor. They need to get that instructor back up here for a good 2 weeks working with him every day.
  14. I have got to start benching Tazawa when he faces the Jays.
  15. Rogers is 7th in the AL this year in fastball velocity as a starter (non-qualified obviously). That's higher than Verlander (not that velocity means a ton).
  16. We saw Butter have us run into outs for years. He's an outstanding infield coach, but probably shouldn't be the 3rd base coach.
  17. Gotta give JPA some credit hanging in on that one. Great job all around.
  18. The board should have a youtube contest for the most creative way to destroy a JPA bobblehead.
