Yeah cobb then ohtani

Nice AB, young man.

Kid has the yips

Pretty sure that’s Scott Boras sitting behind home plate. Not sure if mentioned already.

The numbers say he can’t hit fastballs either. He’s a mistake hitter at this point, which isn’t useless given the other skills he brings, but it would be disappointing to say the least.

He pitched a little in the past, and could hit the 90’s reportedly. His arm isn’t weak. I was just surprised it was relatively accurate given how quick he got rid of it.

Vaughn looked pretty good circling that ball and getting rid of it quick. Better throw than I expected.

I like the glass-half-full mindset, but if they hadn’t dumpster dove with Eaton in the first place the loss of Jimenez wouldn’t hurt so much. Doesn’t make much sense to reserve funds for when nobody worthwhile is available.

I’d like to see them trade for Gallo. It will cost something of value, but that can be recouped next off-season by dealing from a surplus once Eloy is presumably healthy. We’ve waited long enough, let’s go for it.

How do I buy a print? Maybe I’m a dummy but not seeing the option.

I hope everyone donated to unicef this Halloween so Jerry can afford to pay some unfortunate islander to buy a baseball glove and fill a roster spot.

100%. Feel badly for him.

He’s actually looked all around not terrible defensively this spring. I wouldn’t say good, but passable on a periodic basis.

Hope S&P don’t throw him any curveballs.

Lucroy to both. Mercedes is a DH (and deserves a legit shot), and Collins isn’t good at anything.

I know not the best team, or even among them, but that 2003 team should have done some damage. That team was crazy talented.

Depends if it’s a light beer or a grown up beer.

Eloy is an all-star calibre hitter. I agree with others he COULD be even better hitting the ball in the air more often - the caveat being there is no guarantee he couldn’t also become worse in doing so.

Let’s enjoy giolito while we can.

I think it’ll be be ok. I don’t think TLR is great, but he isn’t some supervillain either. More important he’s very cognizant of his legacy, and he’s not stupid. He’s not Bobby Valentine.

That hanging with the hurt song is a straight up banger

Someone had to say it

If that was your point you didn’t express it very well. And 68th would put them in almost the top third in the world. Not exactly one of the poorest.

Haha yeah that was my thought. The notion that the DR is one of the poorest countries in the world is also very inaccurate.

I appreciate you posting the article, but I’m tired of this game.
