Yep, low fastball hitter with his uppercut swing.

I'm having a huge issue with pitch sequencing and location choices lately. McCann is doing his pitchers no favors to say the least.

Jeez is that little annoying kid back at the park today?

So you always play for a run with bunting yet you play infield back with number 9 guy up?  He’s just so ridiculously bad.

The legend of McCann’s catching has been greatly overstated.

You will never understand The Ricky, so don’t even bother to try.

Hopefully it’s only 55 or so more games of trying to

40 pitches in 2 innings... need to be more efficient

Right hamstring tightness for Moncada.  He’s listed as day-to-day.

I’m totally fine with moncada not wanting to play on a tight hammy in 2019. We’ll talk next year if it continues to be a thing.

We better get a good prospect for Colome because Narvaez has surpassed McCann offensively.  Not sure about the defense but the years of control still favors Narvaez.

Thor is hanging curveballs left and right and they're just swinging through them. Le Sigh.

I love him, but Eloy has really been bad against hangers all season. Meanwhile McCann continues to strike out on pitches far off the plate.

I smell a no hitter

Narvaez sucks. He’s not a catcher.

To paraphrase the late Denny Green, McCann is who we thought he was.

I realize it’s Thor but I think McCann has finally reverted back to the Detroit version of himself.  He’s been awful at the plate lately.
