    There were 3 qualified hitters in MLB last year who had under a 10% K Rate. Yes he's a unicorn.

    Sheets HR

  • Ok Robert hit a BOMB off a hanger. Hand/thumb looks fine.

Sosa 3 run bomb.  Flores getting knocked around thus far.

That was from last night. They're going to finish that game later tonight.

Woops!  Thought it was interesting that they had such an early game.

Still though, not like the HR was from April. Glad to see him hit one.

I'm just saying it's not like those PPD games that are from like March when we get excited and then realize it's not a new development. 

Madrigal single

Robert didn’t look 100 pct on his 3 swings.   Walker had lead off triple for WS.

Kelvin Herrera got destroyed in his rehab outing.

Mentioned it yesterday that his swings after he dove for that ball didn't look quite right (kept messing with his hand/thumb). I'm shocked he didn't get the day off but then I remembered Grudzielanek was managing that team.

Looked to smirk again on his swing in the 3rd

Has little power on those swings. I'm hoping it's nothing but maybe just soreness.

Vaughn is going to hit into an absurd amount of double plays. He hits the ball so hard consistently and just had no speed. He does look very good at the plate, despite poor results tonight 

Walker already 2-2. Stay hot kid.

Now I patiently wait for a Basabe hit..

That kid Duran is perfect through 5 against the Barons...

EDIT: He walked the 2 hitters in the 6th. Still a no no for now.

Haha just hit a 2 RBI double and broke up the no no. My guy!

Vaughn takes some great swings at the plate.  Have a feeling he's gassed right now, but will be a monster come next year.

Rutherford RBI single.

Sheets just followed that up with a 2 run BOMB.

I'm thinking that a lot of the depth guys are going to rebuild their value next year. 

Sheets, this is becoming real

Yup. Sheets or Collins could make a good LH middle of the order bat based on their improvement at the plate this season. I'm wondering if that little cup of coffee for Collins was just what he needed to take the advice of the Sox player development team on how to make it in the big leagues. 

The guy I saw in said cup of coffee had no business in the Majors.

OT: Madrigal's old teammate @fathom's boy) Larnach just homered against the Barons. 

Guys is Madrigal a unicorn or are there more hitters out there similar to him? Obviously they'd strike out more. 

What I mean by this is guys with well above average speed, gap power, good to great defense and a 60 hit tool that strike out 60 or fewer times per 700 PA with a >8% BB rate.
