Jose looked at 2 pitches right down the middle. He's so in between right now.

In between 2nd and 3rd on his trot

There's the pop from Pop !

That's gotta be his first homer in almost a month.

To see how it feels when stealing at less than 100 pct?  I see what you’re saying, as the whole thing is a little odd.

What is odd, they are being overly cautious and resting him per medical recommendation.  A day of rest is only a good thing physically.  Sucks as a fan and it cost them the game but in the long run he is needed. 

Love Jose taking pitches that AB! Then unloading! Make your first hit of the series count!

Please let that bust him out of the slump 

Lets go back to back why not

There ya go, Jose!

End of May

Who was the guy in the bullpen that climbed the fence during the homer? lmao

now would be a great time for the MVP to do something.

BAM !

Yarboroughs ability to paint the outside corner vs righties on that cutter is so beautiful.

Do we make the homer in a game victory trend stick?! Lets go GIO

Pito's homers are contagious, just you watch

Yaz walk

Out of all of the guys, I wonder where Moncada's power went. He's still hitting balls as hard as ever but they're just not going out of the park. 

Walk God strikes again

Yaz the Walk God

New ball has screwed him out of a few homers. A lot of his doubles are also one hoppers off the wall. He'd probably have 10 homers if it was 2020.

 

Edit: if he played all his games in Seattle he'd have 8 homers. It's also been some bad luck (see his 406 foot fly out in Boston).

Only two hitters in lineup with an average over .255, TA and Goodwin...no problem.

I just stated what is odd. 4 steals in the minors. You would guess there would be medical advice against that when he also has to run the bases and play CF. You would think attempting 4 steals is just a strenuous as playing a day game after a night game . I would defy any medical staff to explain the difference. I'm perfectly fine with not playing a day game after a night game but it's easy to explain why it's odd given the 4 steals in the rehab assignment.
