Holy cow!

Once here in May, could you do something productive, Eaton?

Here comes your prototypical 2 hitter to drive TA in!

Here is the month of May for the offense: Player AVG OBP SLG OPS Tim Anderson 320 370 480 850 Adam Eaton 154 290 231 521 Yoan Moncada 267 389 356 744 Jose Abreu 333 429 692 1121 Yermin Mercedes 243 300 324 624 Yasmani Grandal 118 529 471 1000 Andrew Vaughn 237 340 447 788 Leruy Garcia 220 283 293 575 Nick Madrigal 196 196 217 413 Billy Hamilton 190 190 333 524 Jake Lamb 167 444 667 1111 Zack Collins 167 286 444 730 Danny Mendick 143 250 357 607

And, by way of comparison, here is Madrigal's May so far (I didn't realize it was THIS bad). .196 / .196 / .217 / .413

(But I agree, Madrigal is hot garbage right now)

Neither are doing much to help the team right now. But, the difference is..one is less than 100 games into his career, and the other is taxing the team for 73 million dollars as a 'veteran'.

BuT hE tAkEs So MaNy WaLkS!!!11

Uh.....Grandal?

Sadly, it is true. May for Yermin: .243 / .300 / .324 / .624

Here is May: .154 / .290 / .231 / .521

Had we not had a joke in the 2 hole, that Abreu hit would have driven a run in. But alas, keep putting a black hole at #2, TLR.

Eaton blows at the 2 hole, so bad.

Honestly, if we could enact the old playground rule, where someone gets the 'All time hitter' role when Leury hits, I'd be perfectly fine with him playing just defense. He does a pretty good job, wherever he is thrown, in the field. Just can't hit for shite.

Oh...thanks Jason. Not an ER, because of the 'ole behind the plate. But still.

That ER goes on Mr. Framer behind the plate.

Don't bother catching that one, Yas. We'll be fine letting them go.

Overthrowing everything so far.

Yeah, we gotta work tomorrow basically, to split a home series with a team that was ice cold, coming in. Awesome.

Steve with the stern tone to Yoan, he really has some deep seated issues with Moncada.

Leury did indeed, do a great job to get that walk.

Yeah, a .270 hitting Madrigal is really nowhere close to being + value, vs hitting 320+, his only real valued skill.

Robots please?

Oh, look....Leury is up when it matters. Guesses on the outcome?

Thanks, Adam. 4-26, 12 K's in May, with 2 RBI
