Are we still keeping track of that fact that that HR came off a right hander? Or has it become consensus that Javy isn't a platoon player?
He is destroying RHP this season. He has fully arrived.

I'm ready to lock him into one of those top 2 spots in the order. The way Schwarber is hitting I'd like him up there too. I'd think that this version of Schwarber could be a pretty good lead off hitter but if Javy keeps taking a decent number of walks and mashing I could actually see him leading off a bit in his career. I'm pretty big Javy fan boy but even I wouldn't have ever thought he'd be good for that role. He's good on the bases though and he can mash at anywhere near this rate you want him getting a lot of ABs.

what's wrong with this man

 

I think he’s being a little facetious. Both him, Sharma and other Cubs twitter dudes mentioned earlier how statcast stuff in Coors is notorious for being off.
