that's what the FO have been doing all these years. developing undetectable peds

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Yeah, it's going to be tough for him to accrue that many RBI opportunities with Kris Bryant hitting 65 homers right in front of him in the order.

[TruffleShuffle]

bryant and baez have both been hit by pitch in this game. if they hit soler, send eli whiteside out there to kill someone.

[snoodmonger]

jeebus, BRING SOLER UP.

[Rob]

Eli Whiteside HR. Man, this kid is gonna be something special.

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Some fun with arbitrary end points and small sample sizes: Bryant over his last 12 games (46 PA), has a 19.6% K%.

 

Also, his BABIP at Iowa is down to a somewhat more reasonable .372 and he still has an OPS of 1.050.

 

And, holy [expletive], Oliver thinks he is already a 4.6-WAR player next year.

[davell]

While the outlook has changed on his future, it's still nice to see Olt playing well in Iowa. He could still be a decent power bat off the bench.

Thru 9 plate appearances, the Big 3 at Iowa has seen 51 pitches. That number includes a 1-pitch out by Soler, and also includes 2 PAs that would have continued at least 1 more pitch if not for the HPBs.

And only 1 K. Working deep counts and not striking out...

sadly, it thought Ruggiano would be a 4.5-win player this year

 

it's probably best to ignore its existence altogether

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Oliver thinks everyone is a 4-win player

[Aaron_Kennelly]

Haha... yeah it thinks Javier Baez is a 5.3-WAR player next year. Guess I won't look at that, again.

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

Did Oliver project Jake Arrieta as a 6 win player?

[Guest]

Justin Bour hit a home run for Iowa, too.

 

errr...against Iowa.

[Guest]

Ho hum, Torres is 2-2 with a double.

I don't know who you are but I like you

[davell]

He's making a case for the end of our top 10.

[sneakypower]

oh, he's already there

[TruffleShuffle]

bryant home run.

[JonJayCutler]

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

[gscool89]

Kris Bryant daily HR
