    Almora got a double off Scherzer which duke basically told us would happen. That’s probably the biggest takeaway from last nights game. Well, that and this Cole Hamels thing might work.
  3. minnesotacubsfan
    Of all the trades made at the break, has Hamels been the best so far? 18 innings, 2 runs, 0 XBH And it looked like such low key acquisition

    KB is having surgery? I just read he took “dry swings” with no pain, nothing about surgery
  23. minnesotacubsfan
    That's kind of terrifying. I didn't realize it was bad enough to warrant all that. Because playing until you’re 40 is easy? I think its just the point where KB is starting to realize how physically demanding playing 162 pro ball is, and since he wants a long career is approaching life/routines as such. I don’t think its scary, but maybe prudent.

    I only saw the replay and its not clear, but did Contreras interfere on the throw to 1st when Maddon got booted? It looks like if he's inside the baseline, its by one step from what I can see (?)

    The bolded part is what i was wondering. I know guys come up, hit the horsefeathers off the ball and disappear, but exit velocity seems like something that should be evident soon in his minor league career. Why now is it becoming such a big part of his success? He's not just slightly above average, hes setting the bar in that catagory. What adjustment makes that happen? It also gives me some hope that it continues because it will likely continue to push his success. But no, he's not replacing Bryant. Hell of a trade chip tho. Read the athletic article I posted. But basically he always hit the ball hard and was a big exit velo guy but he had a bad swing angle and hit too many grounders. They adjusted the swing a few degrees to get him to hit more line drives and fly balls is the jist of it thought. yea, I found the article post after I replied. Thanks
