Jose Abreu

Delmonico

I feel bad after reading that article that discussed how seriously he took eating healthy and taking care of his body, but then got to Winston-Salem and discovered that he couldn't maintain that lifestyle. Now he's eating a different Domino's pizza every night apparently

Also a great job by Leury to come in from left field and cover third

Thanks for the outs, Seattle!

Engel's 49th batting stance of the year leads to the same result of the first 48

Right field

I didn't think there was a play. By the time the throw got there Segura would already be standing on the base so no point in taking the risk

Eloy has a .910 OPS in non-Charlotte ballparks this season

You're right, but a 21 PA sample just doesn't cut it, especially when AA pitching is harder than AAA pitching so it's not like this is some greater challenge for him. He's proven that he can hit under pretty much any circumstance, hitter's park, pitcher's park, neutral park, etc.

If 21 PAs outside of Charlotte is enough for you to think he's not doing that well, then ok. It's not like he struggled to hit at the Barons' home park, which is a major pitcher's park.

Or, maybe, keeping him in AAA is hurting his development and he needs to be facing tougher competition so that he can improve as a player. It can be argued that said developmental time is more important that potentially having him for an extra year, which may not even happen because of the new CBA

Where did you see that? I read his Eloy article but didn't get that vibe from it.

I don't think he's ready for Winston-Salem. Needs to get that average above .625 for me to even consider it.

Anderson

Who's that poster who claims (erroneously) all the time that Leury is the worst fielder in MLB history? I hope he was watching that.

Hope we pull him if he allows >1 runner

Uhh... I'll take it?

Omar has an .800 OPS

What a game for Covey

Abreu with the cool .750 OBP today

Great defensive game for him thus far

Thanks for keeping it at that.
