Also it’s the lakers. This shit works out for them all the time. No org deserved a trophy less than they did in 2020. They were dysfunctional and dead in the water. Then Lebron left Cleveland for them. Then AD forced his way there.

I think it's fine to criticize it, as they get up the chain their profile starts to become real. The reason I brought up his Krate being stable at a good 17% is that it would be more worrisome to me that he could still add power if he was K'ing 30%+, or that he could find some additional patience. He's at least moved to the part where he is making good contact, in June he has a .280 avg and only an 11% k rate. So he can be more aggressive in taking some cuts without spiraling into uselessness territory, and take some more pitches without the same worry. Hopefully he does it, but he can repeat AA again and it'd be fine. He could stay in it for 3 more years and still be ahead of where Mendick was level wise.

It's all fair to criticize. Considering the org, they have had absolute control over the decisions of which players to acquire, health staff, strength and conditioning staff, player development, etc. Considering Hahn actually did inherit one of the best operations in baseball in keeping players healthy / the synergy between scouting, coaching, health in Schneider/Cooper and how it is decidedly not one of the best operations in baseball (though hahn will be quick to point out it isn't the worst) I'd say another feather in the cap for Hahn's determination to make a decidedly below average baseball ops organization.

Jose Rodriguez now up to .251 average, but still single heavy. Maybe Menechinos been in his ear.

I am completely surprised how durable Montgomerys approach and patience has been in his career thus far.

Great start for Tommy Sommer too

Absolutely wild that Logan Glass, who just had put nothing together across his first several years in A ball, is called up on an emergency level to Charlotte and is smoking XBH all over the place.

Amen.

There is something terrifying about that first car ride. I think it’s just that the mom just completed an arduous, taxing journey without a hitch and you just have to hit a pedal to go zoom and if you hit a curb everyone will kill you. much harder for a man

I hate this season.

Was just wondering what the heck was going on there. Maybe he’s an emergency body but he’s playing?

People don’t go to minor league games to see winning teams.

The thing about Leury is he’s terrible

We will get them back when we bring our ground all hitting 300 lb players to run all over them

Just another day of a TLR team where we are being clowned.

Hell yea

No idea, but no reason imo to hold back some of these W-S outfielders and he’s done most to earn a call up.

Feels like OF is the surplus in W-s, I wish they'd do a neslony to AAA, ellis/colas to AA

Woo hoo! Congrats!

W-S is the best. Love that park.

I think it’s completely reasonable to give Montgomery the majority of the year in Kannapolis. Succeeding in Kanny and Birmingham >>>> success in W-S/CHA

I’m not banking on Williams after what he’s showed, but he is still 2 years younger than dosunmu and lost a year basically. WCJ also looked passive and a baby and in Orlando definitely looks more the version the bulls wanted when they drafted. Took 3 years and really 4. but maybe it never happens. The low usage rate always being referred to as unselfish annoys me. Some times your team needs you to step up.

barons games now...will be sad.

Nice, congrats! Don't buy a lot of NB sized clothes, really try not to buy too much until you know what you need. They change phases so quick, and every baby is different with preferences for places to sleep, etc. Other than that, the worst advice you'll hear that is actually the best advice you'll hear is 'you'll know what to do when it happens'. Hard to understand how you will know the exact needs of a teeny blob that can't speak or do much, but you'll be spending so much time with them you figure it out pretty quick. But hard to prepare for how you'll know stuff.

unfortunately though I am pro Sosa on a long timeline, this is a legitimate jump. I don't know about a big jump here, but, worth a shot.
