He had periods like this last year too. He's just real streaky. But there seems to be a change in approach which is an improvement.

His entire Savant page is red for hitting. The fact that he's hitting .200 really is super unlucky. Really good BB and K rates too.

That big CF must rob so many homers.

This guy sucks

He hits the ball hard. The question is if he'll ever make enough consistent contact.

That's close to a homer in a lot of other parks.

So do the A's and Dbacks pitchers suck or did the offense just need some nicer weather to start hitting?

Came in with a 3.38 ERA and a 6.70 FIP. Now has a 10.57 ERA and a 10.31 FIP.

Who is the guy getting caught on the mic creaming his pants after every Sox homer?

That exit velo is up there with Cruz and Judge.

Toronto's backup catcher has to be our MVP so far this series.

It just keeps getting better for the Bulls. Jaden Ivey got cut for his anti-LGBTQ comments.

New bullpen same old s%*#.

Oh Christ...

Getz needs to stop trading for left handed reliever with Boston

Getz thought he was a switch hitter too.

Illini back in the final 4. It's only been 21 years.

Houston really couldn't hit the broad side of a barn for about 90% of the game.

Thanks for proving that we definitely need ABS. And like football, all ABS challenges in the final 2-3 innings should be up to a video assistant umpire. Teams shouldn't get jobbed to decide a game just because they ran out of challenges.

What's the saying? Hire a clown, expect a circus?

Wasn't he gonna do that regardless of his WBC performance? If we didn't have Meidroth, I'd consider letting him start the year on the big league team.

How? They just beat Mexico. They'd only lose out if all 3 teams are tied at 3-1 right?

Matt Ryan has never worked in a front office before this. Maybe he has input on big moves, but Cunningham is clearly running that front office's day to day operations. Matt Ryan has actually said that himself.

It sucks they couldn't go get someone like Decker at LT. He's probably too expensive for the cap space that is available. I am a big fan of the Bush signing. He's been great the last 2 years in Cleveland. Great run defender and good in coverage. He also adds a lot of speed to the LB corps, which is something we were badly missing last season. Seeing the deals that other ILBs signed, we got a great deal on Bush as well. I'm not sure about Coby Bryant. He played on a loaded defense last year, but he's graded out decently the past 2 seasons in Seattle. I know Byard is old and can fall off at a moment's notice, but I think I would have preferred to retain him at a lower price than spending $13 million a year on a younger, but less proven free safety. No splash moves this year kind of sucks compared to the 3 previous years, but that's just the reality of the NFL and the cap. But the moves give a pretty clear picture or what they'll target early in the draft: EDGE, DI, safety, and OT are probably the 4 biggest needs on the team.

Franklin was the 2nd worst inside line backer in the NFL last year according to PFF, with a grade of 38.4.
