Engel is hitting .350 in his last 40 ABs.  OPS is also over .600.

Wow, TA with the tag up on a ball to medium LC field.

Sheesh

Blind squirrel 

When Tilson first came up, he was hitting very well.  Now it seems like he just swings the bat wildly.

Smith got called up

More than a backup at this point. Almost a catching Messiah. Our DH duo is looking decent as someone said. Our SP is improving too. 

Jose Abreu is elite on foul balls over his head, lol.

Moncada 433 feet homer (second ball hit extremely well too)

Palka 117.5 mph exit velocity 

Lopez 98 mph fb

 

Twins’ broadcasters picked up on Narvaez being a lousy pitch framer...fwiw.

Get in the box you big lug.

Some good things to focus on.

Unusual for Cards’ system product...

CATCH THE FUCKING BALL NARVAEZ.

nasty breaking ball.

It is a testament to how bad Gonzalez and Narvaez are for Kevan Smith to be considered some kind of huge improvement.

If he can make that slider more consistent, his K numbers will pick up nicely...

lopez is turning into a stud right before our eyes.  Nice to see.

Jesus how did he barrel that up?

That was a real nice piece of hitting by Escobar, that was letter high and off of the plate, he still went out and hit it to the wall Oppo.

he goes to focus on getting the third out though

Lopez reminds me a lil of Melido Perez

The pitch tracker was nasty: 97mph, top of the zone with wicked tail and somehow he hits it 380 feet oppo field.  Great piece of hitting, might have gotten a little lucky but hey.

White Sox excel at scouting doubles hitters...Escobar, Abreu, Madrigal, Voldemort Jr.

I was thinking he reminds me a little of Jose Contreras

Someone said Alex Fernandez the other day, which I liked.

Strange thing to say coming off of a start where he was pure s***.
