Jose Abreu

Yoan's xWOBA is still 33 points better than his wOBA. So even with this recent "surge" (which is more the law of averages playing out than some newfound skill or hot streak), he should get even better.

He seemed a lot angrier today

I don't think I've ever seen him that mad, ever

I think you're on your own. If Tim did something to show up the opponent, I'd be mad. But attempting to steal a base and exclaiming after a home run don't fall into that category. Anything else he did was a reaction to the opponents.

The Royals are the last team who need to be taking exception with this kind of stuff

Manfred loved this game

I'm late but that GIDP to end the top of the 8th should have been reviewed. Duda's foot came off the bag. That's the kind of call New York loves to overturn with little concrete evidence.

So we started Castillo against the RHP today and Narvaez against the LHP? Smart

After watching that video they just showed, I have no doubt that Perez is in the wrong here. If you can't handle someone positively exclaiming after a home run, find a new sport

Hansen, Stephens, Guerrero, Adams, Gonzalez, McClure... "one of them" may be a stretch

Oh come on. Did you ever play SS and get screened like that? 98/100 is a ridiculous claim

Hard to get in front of the ball when you can't see the ball until it's right in front of you... that's a really tough play to make when you're screened.

Good screen by Perez there

You mean this? This was funny...

Yeah, I'm not gonna complain about a guy showing emotion after what he went through last season.

Garcia reminds me a lot of Anderson in the outfield. Makes crazy plays (exhibit A: the catch from earlier) but sometimes botches routine ones

My guess is they didn't like Tim pimping the homer

Depends. If you're talking scout seats or something like that, probably not. Standard 100s section seats often do.

Let's make it 4 in a row! 7:15 PM CT, WGN, TBA (likely Covey) v. Skoglund

Jose Abreu game threads were the key. That’s what we were missing.

A corresponding move will be made after this game

He and Davidson should be considered but I'm sure it'll be Gregorious or some big market guy
