  1. You don’t know they have nobody preaching patience, don’t make things up. Stick with the bad plate appearances opinion, at least its demonstrably true in this last half inning.
  2. Another bad PA, why swing at the ball outside followed by the inside one….which one was he looking for? He’s gotta stop trying to hit everything. Look for a location and stick to it until you get two strikes both he and a Gurriel got themselves out without seeing a pitch in the zone.
  3. Well, good hustle to stay out of the DP, but the bat shoulda been on the shoulder until 2 strikes. Let’s go Vlad, do something useful
  4. Cmon LG, put a dagger in this bitch
  5. Damn, the one time windmill Rivera throws up the stop sign and the throw was….awful
  6. If Manoah ever hits someone intentionally he’d probably rush the batters box right after.
  7. Yeah getting it tied up at least would be nice
  8. Yeah, cuz Manoah definitely threw intentionally at a guy he’s made look foolish every time today on a game where the Jays are behind 2-1. Sit the f*** down Cole, you’re just pissed because you sucked yesterday.
  9. Scroll back a bit, apparently not being over the moon with Martinez is a sin.
  10. I like Cortes stuff though, he throws the kitchen sink so you can’t really sit on a pitch, good enough command to throw strikes with everything and just enough fastball that you can’t sit soft and just adjust to the heater.
  11. The way Cortes is reacting it’s like they all just expect anything even remotely close to be a strike.
  12. I feel good about CHappy here
  13. It was 101 mph with an Xba of .660 If Vlad hit that and their SS missed it we’d be marvelling at how hard Vlad always hits the ball, not skewering the SS on a wicked short hop. Just sayin
  14. Definitely something off mechanically, he’s losing a lot of pitches arm side.
  15. Changeup isn’t working either.
  16. Don’t think I’ve ever seen a HR go off the top of the wall twice before going over. Cool
  17. The first cut from the 40 if they need to make room for anyone is probably Collins or Lawrence.
  18. Well at least they don’t have to clear a 40 man spot yet as it looks like they’re only sitting at 39. If Pop has to go down to get Merryweather up, and it allows them to keep both in the system…then yeah. When Mayza come back it would have to be Kikuchi sent down. They need White in the rotation.
  19. My opinion is there’s lots of work to do left and he’s not ready for the major leagues in any way, shape, or form at this moment in time. That’s an entirely defensible position that also allows for improvement, which I hope happens. Just because I’m not anointing him as the next Vlad Jr doesn’t mean I don’t like the fact that he’s in the system. As it stands now he’d be lucky to have a career like Miguel Sano, I’m kinda hoping for more than a .5-3 WAR player who’s career is pretty much over at 29 because he could never make enough contact to take real advantage of his power.
  20. The fact that he gets so many pop ups is evidence that those 3 areas you mentioned are not where they need to be. Yes, lots of HRs, but with everything else, still just barely a league average bat at 101 wRC+. There’s LOTS of work to do with him yet. HRs are great, but how many outs you make when you’re not hitting HRs is very important and right now, he’s making way too many. Also only has 1 more minor league season before he needs to be added to the 40 man roster.
  21. The sentence structure displayed here is amazing lol
  22. Good catch. Still…nearly 40% of PAs being useless is not encouraging.
  23. See that? A real HR not a piece of s*** warning track fly out turned into a HR by MLBs cowardice.
  24. He definitely overestimates his foot speed. He thinks he’s outthinking them but they all know he underthinks the thinking process. At least, that’s what I think.
  25. Heh, Tapia just plain sucks. Really hope they get rid of him in the off-season one way or another.
