I'd like to introduce you to the real James McCann.

Disgusting take.

I feel bad for James. He has been worked into the ground. He needs a couple days off

I don't remember him saying that. 

It was just a joke

The truth is often painful.

He had like a 610 career opps coming into this year.

Frazier the only hitter who looks great against Giolito.

Didn‘t get it high enough.

He got it there and Fraz crushed it. 

If anyone deserve a break its catchers. You don't know whats the truth. All you know is he wasnt good most of his career and he's slumping now. SO you fall back to playing the odds. Genius.

what are you talking about bro..

Some catchers can hit some can't - McCann has never been much of a hitter.

It is what it is.

Give fathom a break, it must be hard to come up with new things to complain about every day. ?

That was @Moan4Yoan claiming it was “regression”.

That was a sick fastball. 

Gio racking up the K's.

Disgusting is a strong word

The hitting approach in the 2nd half is soooooo piss poor

It might be what you think it is, it might not . Some hitters actually do become better over time especially catchers .

Yoan is so much better than everyone else.

Stop Chuck. I was already a fan of Pete Alonso.

Hearing about the Paul Konerko love from Alonso is awesome. Paulie alwyn had a beautiful swing. Hard to not want to copy it.

There was a great article on The Athletic about it yesterday.

Yes it is. McCann had a heck of a 1st half and he is slumping now . I have a lot of respect for catchers. I wasn't one of those who thought he should be extended. I always knew he could revert back to being who we all thought he was but I don't discount the possibility that he might have turned a corner as a hitter. He was using the whole field very well the 1st half and his approach seemed much improved.

You aren’t allowed to look at his previous four years of statistics.  Too small of a sample size.
