[Hairyducked Idiot]

We strike out too much.

[DiamondMind]

Dorks were unleashed, in all senses of the word

 

I really read that wrong the first time

[Sammy Sofa]

Whatever you thought you read happened.

[Sammy Sofa]

We strike out too much.

 

That...will not change. But it will be more tolerable.

big black in to pitch

[treebird]

i had a friend in undergrad nicknamed big black. people called him that because he was black and had a big dick.

Did the Pixies write a song about him that Apple made really weird when they had a teenage girl singing it?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

If the pitcher just threw the ball straight down into the mound, Javi would swing.

That's why I'm not going to do it. Just takes some patience and self-discipline when he looks as hopeless as he did in that AB.

In which he tied the Cubs' record for mots HRs in the first 10 games of a career.

early adopters get more credit when baez has a .265 obp 500 pa's into his career

I don't think that's all that far off, and it doesn't bother me.

Exactly. It's not like it's all been terrible. I mean, I think we all knew he'd look bad at times, but he's also looked exactly like a future star at times too.

[UMFan83]

We strike out too much.

 

Have we always been this strikeout prone or is this another thing we can blame Javy for?

He certainly has, and I look forward to when he stops swinging at 55 foot pitches so he can look like it even more.

[DiamondMind]

I hope we can still get something for Baez in a trade

[treebird]

a week from now pitchers will realize the only way to fail with baez up is to hang a curve and they'll just start throwing him fastballs in the dirt
