If Javy's newfound patience and reduced k rate is for real, he's going to be so good that I'll have to buy bigger pants to accommodate my permanent erection.
Sveum is acting like the decision to give him a day off is like deciding whether or not to release him. A day or two off may or may not have any impact at all, but it seems like he's been agonizing over the decision for a month. Give him a damn day off.
Remember the rampage Baez went on in spring training. Didn't he have 4 HR's in a row at one point (in 2 different games)? I think he has the potential to be decent at baseball.
Vogelbach would have to have an absolute monster 2nd half to be top 100, but I do think we pretty easily have the best collection of position players. We have that top tier and then a very decent 2nd tier in Villanueva, Lake, Torreyes, etc.
Uggh! I wish our FO would stop being so cheap and pony up to get past the paywall on some of these scout sites so they'd know who the best players are.
I hope so, 4/5 with 2 2B's today. With his age and peripherals, I wanted to add him to that 2nd tier of Alcantara, Johnson, etc. after his hot start, but he went and started sucking.
