Well the O-Contact is fine, 70% is around Mike Trout's career average, the O-Swing for sure needs to drop a lot. He swings and misses at exactly a league average rate so that's fine, but would likely go down if he stopped swinging at pitches outside the zone.
Even if what you said is true, Sam Gaviglio would be a pretty decent get out of a compensation pick that most likely would have flamed out within a few years.
It's two weeks of an injured Josh Donaldson dude, of course it's going to look lopsided. At least we got something out of him, this season was the worst case scenario for the front office and they tried to salvage anything they could out of it.
You know what's a lopsided deal, Noah Syndergaard + Travis d'Arnaud for a f***ing 40 year old knuckleballer.
What was Kris Bryant doing there? With a 5-man infield and the bases loaded, he gets a groundball hit to him by Yelich, and he attempts to go back to third, step and throw to first instead of coming home right away. Terrible thinking for someone who runs as fast as Yelich.
Boras can complain all he wants, if Sanchez continues to be garbage he's not doing s*** to stop the team from doing whatever the hell they want with him.
The Brewers' bench for this game against the Cubs includes Granderson, Domingo Santana, Eric Thames, Mike Moustakas and Travis Shaw. Granted, the starter was Cole Hamels which is why a number of those guys weren't starting, but damn that's deep.
He's just going to say that it's the Marlins, which to be fair it's true. But 10 strikeouts is 10 strikeouts, and only one walk, the command was very good today.
It reads like a reddit copy/paste, and he's super defensive about it for whatever reason. It's pretty clear most if not all of that is made up. It's not the Josh is a douche part that's hard to believe, it's the whole story itself.
Estrada going up to bat without a single thought about swinging the bat, Chen literally could have lobbed the ball to the plate. Isn't the National League great?
Michael Lorenzen has 4 HR in 25 PAs this season, good for a .522 ISO. He's been arguably more valuable as a pinch hitter than as a reliever both this year and throughout his entire career.
