Is Giancarlo Stanton broken?

[David]

I'd never root for this to be the case because he is/was a great and fun player who I'd like to continue to see hit massive dongs, but I can't say I wouldn't get some mild enjoyment out of the Marlins and Loria getting stuck with that deal all the way through when everyone (surely including Loria) assumed he'd be opting out in 2020 with "only" $107M of the money spent.

 

 

Right now, he's striking out a career high 35% of the time and has had negative value through 1/3 of the season. His contact rate is down to a critically low 61%.

[Post Count Padder]

He has a .406 OPS and 47 strikeouts in his last 98 at bats. :shock:

His swing has gone all shitty. It looks like he's awkwardly shifting his weight from one side to the other.

[Derwood]

His swing has gone all [expletive]. It looks like he's awkwardly shifting his weight from one side to the other.

 

So we're saying that Barry Bonds broke Stanton? Perhaps an underhanded scheme to make sure his career HR record isn't threatened? :-k

bonds sabotage?

[sneakypower]

was just a DP though

i love giancarlo but i would support barry if he chose to destroy the man's career

[Sammy Sofa]

And he'd be doing when trying to actually make nice with everyone, too. That would be amazingly diabolical.

Ahhh the Soler Special

[Liam Neeson]

Bonds torpedoed him on purpose.

 

For real though, he has been really bad since he collided with Ozuna on May 15th. Could be hiding an injury?

 

I hope he comes back because watching him smoke baseballs is too fun.

if he ends up tanking massively, i assume that loria would probably just have him murdered rather than pay him $300 million.

I can't stand it. I know you planned it.

I want to laugh that off but I find myself nodding along.

threadstarter is an idiot
