  • Awful? Lol I think you're the one who needs to relax and drop the hyperbole.   

  • Next year, it has to be a 4 man bench by rule. 26 man roster, 13 pitcher max. I feel like people often forget that and the minimum batters faced for relievers next year. 

  • Personally I would love to see Gio mix in his curve more. Not sure if he doesn’t trust it or what. 

Dang it!

That was disappointing by Eloy

oh my god they’re so bad 

Detroit is awful

Jesus Tigers. At least not make the tank look that obvious.

I'll take it. Runs are runs.

That shit was sad lol

His rookie year is looking a lot like Moncada's first full season. I think he's going to make a huge jump next year, just like Yoan did this year. The talent is apparent.

Frustrating as hell but yep I agree. 

Pitcher is walking everyone.  Tim's up hacking! He's never going to learn.

Why aren't they learning and getting Robert acclimated? They really should call him up.

Timmeh is always gonna be streaky. His entire value revolves around him getting hits. He's a hacker.

lack of impulse control.. is how'd id define our young hitters.

Swing at every fucking thing.

Timmy just swinging at everything. By the way, Eloy now 1-12 with bases loaded this year. His average against power pitchers is really bad.

Hate the way we approach hitting.. its trash and we have lots of guys like that.

If they don't learn.. will never be any good.

It makes no sense to call him up to AAA as soon as they did if they don’t intend on calling him up this year. They could have slow played him and kept him in Birmingham longer if they wanted to play the service time game. 

Gio just hit 96 on that one. He's back.

I've already accepted the fact he is what he is in that perspective. Kid is never going to be patient. If he continues to hit for a high average however, I'm cool with it. He holds enough value in his bat alone to be a positive player. It's the glove I question.

People need to relax. They weren’t going to call him up on the road. If he’s coming up, it will be this weekend.

 I understand his approach . it's just frustrating .  A little patience would go a long way.

I mean this in all sincerity, but I love your Giolito fandom

Me too. I'm with you on Anderson. He's always going to be a hacker, he's always going to be streaky.

Hawk always talked about being in control and having the advantage. Yoan has been so much better at that this year. Eloy has definitely not.
