Daniel Labude

On a cutter down the middle...Kirk the same on a changeup down the middle. Mistakes just stay unpunished

4th, giant tie for 5th

Crafty lefty but the same thing lmao, slow down and slow away...should be a right field only approach until you get pitches over the plate

I think the location has been an issue along with offspeed away. Even though they are getting velo, most of it hasn't been good hitting locations

Huh?

2-1 loss. Soft tossing lefty will handle us lol

Jays don't do that imo. Replace Martinez with Groshans and then possible

So here is the fallacy of that line of thinking, it could be a rather deep explanation, but I'll stick to the basics Orelvis 536 ABs before AA Made AA as a 20 year old Teoscar 1318 ABs before AA Made AA as a 21 year old Sano 1142 ABs before AA Made AA as a 20 year old So given this, it is safe to conclude that while Orelvis has a lower batting average it is statistically due to having 50%+ less ABs at lower levels in which he could dominate. If he just stayed another month at A Ball last year he could have put up monster numbers and have like 30 HRs and a 0.400 average over the hot 2 month span. Instead he was promoted and challenged. As has been pointed out Orelvis has met each challenge and once acclimated to the level/challenge he has adjusted and dominated. Looking further to the start of his AA season this year, either he or the team had him working on a 2 strike approach swing adjustment with no leg kick. It showed promise in spring training, but had troublesome results in AA games. After a month (April) they made the adjustment to scrap it and he has taken off again, having a great month of May. Certain things the team or Orelvis have done (swing adjustments/approaches, Covid year, promotions, etc.) played into the lower numbers overall and lower average over the course of the minors. Will he be a 0.350 hitter, probably not, but he has very good bat skills and pitch recognition. What has been seen this month is the ability to take more walks (also 3 HBPs) and hitting the ball the other way. Hasn't been a lot, but he has the ability to. At 20, that will come with more time Orelvis is a very special talent that wasn't pre loaded and ready to go like Vlad and Bo, but he has that ability to be a star if he keeps putting things together. His power and launch angles are elite and he has the ability to make contact, but what is even more reassuring is his ability to adapt and adjust to produce results. This will be key once he gets to the majors. Its a constant battle of adjusting to what teams are doing to you

Thank You I will be here all year with the thanks you all give me

K........

Said it during the game, coming out of commercial

Castillo, Greene, Overton....we refuse to adjust to all offspeed pitches away, wont change until they do and the coaches said today they won't change because of a month or so of results

Can't wait for the Reds to shut us out this weekend

K looking seriously

They were 15 in 2021, come January 2023 they will be 16. Should be good I thought

Unlikley to sign with the Jays at the moment unless for a discount/delayed signing. Both can sign this coming period and the Jays have 4M earmarked for Bonilla

Suppose to start Thursday for Vancouver, not announced yet though

Mayza to the IL, Vasquez back up

Mostly low 90s, but has reached a little higher on occasion. Probably some projection still on it. Might end up being the 93-95 range hopefully

Bo back to 2nd in the order, Vlad hitting 3rd

Id take Lewis over Abrams

Yes

In dynasty thats still a hard pass imo and I'm really low on Bo, but if he can limit the Ks he can get hot again
