Lol

 

would he be the best player in baseball if he had plate discipline? (i know he wouldn't actually be trout but it's crazy how he's good to very good at everything else

[Brian]

That's 6 players with at least 20 dongs, only ancient 28 year old Rizzo is over 25 years old. Edited August 31, 2017 by Brian

This is a damn good rookie season

[UMFan83]

Worst 5 hitter ever

With a bit of discipline, he turns into an elite guy, I'd say. And I figure that he'll eventually get to 7-8% walk rate, by pitchers trying to avoid him, at times.

I haven't gotten to watch as many games as I would have liked this season, but this is easily the most entertaining thus far, for me. I did get to see the 10th inning comeback which happened recently, but was there one that I've missed so far this year even in the running (assuming we go on to win)?

[Jaxbro]

Of Rizzo's RBIs, what percentage of them do you think Bryant scores??? Has to be near 40% right???

[Brian]

who wins in a foot race, Rivera or Almora?

[UMFan83]

Schwarber back down to .195 #SchwarberLine

don't you know that only the post call up stats count??

[David]

given the schedule, i think we have a reasonable (but definitely outside) shot at 95 wins. which is horsefeathering insane given where we were at the ASB.

[Brian]

there's no way the pitcher didn't horsefeathers his pants there

[BigSlick]

baseball is not only good again, it rules again

[David]

it's kind of amazing to remember that this org had like a 20 year run or something without producing a sort of good position player

 

now we've got a guy who is a little bit of an afterthought breaking the guy from 2 years ago's fastest to 20 HR record

[David]

happ needs to go on spiegel and parkins everyday

[Gilby]

Bryant's OBP is .410

 

Happ!

[Cubswin11]

Happ is already good, but man if he can improve that discipling by a touch he could be ridiculous

when heyward gets a hit off a lefty i feel obligated to tell all you guys that i'm sorry for all my dumb posts and i love y'all.

 

it's a pact i made with myself

[Jaxbro]

I’d like to see an 11-2 game after that 1st inning cheap-o stuff

:-"

[bcl412]

We're starting to get into "we sure as hell ain't scoring tomorrow" territory

[weis21]

anybody else notice duke hasn't been around much since it was 0-2? just sayin'

[TruffleShuffle]

who wins in a foot race, Rivera or Almora?

 

the paint drying on the wall at the same time.
