It's pretty disappointing that Yoan's triple slash looks pretty much just like Jaimer Candelario's. 

He’s just getting blown away by velocity 

Really hope that the only reason Eloy is in LF is to spell Vaughn and give Engel a chance to heal up.  When Engel is healthy, I really don't want to see Eloy in LF on a regular basis.  He's too valuable offensively to risk him getting hurt.

I think the "his velocity is down" is becoming the most annoying shit on this forum & that's saying something. Giolito has needed TJS about 29 times over the last 2 years

How about "velocity is up"? All of Cease's pitches are up between 0.3-1.2 MPH to start the game.

His fastball spin rate is down over 100.

Add lemonparty to the list. Classic!

Somehow i avoided all those. I know the content in all of them...including tubgirl, but never had to lay my eyes on any.

He has already publicly complained about DHing. He is the starting LF going forward

Needs more sweat.

Dylan looking like he's wearing down a little and could use an extended break. Getting lazy in his delivery. Arm still strong.

I bet he’s next after Rodon returns

Really good slider. 

Eloy has actually played a really nice LF since coming off the IL.

The ball is flying 

Eloy is in one piece!

  It's for his own good.  Give him 2 or so starts a week in LF and the rest he should DH.  Vaughn is a better LF. 

 

Good for him for making a nice play.

My heart stopped for a second there.

He's never pitched a full MLB season, I wouldn't be surprised if he drops off due to fatigue. 

 

Good thing Eloy didn't kill himself there.

The LeMahieu double and that Odor fly ball both carried a lot. Both guys didn't think they hit it well just by looking at their reactions after the swing. 

lol they're all over him

Cease gets a lot of his swings and misses on pitches out of the zone. That doesn't mix well when he faces a patient lineup.

He's on my fantasy team and there was this great update on yahoo where they called him "Polarizing".  Kind of fits him like a glove.  lol

Robert!

La Pantera!

Checked it up on a 1-2 slider and then hits a high fastball 438 feet. Very good signs from Robert. 

 

I have said it multiple times...when Robert hits his prime...he is gonna be a 8 WAR guy for a few years 

God if Robert gets his timing all the way back... lordy.

3-0 and Lamb swings at a bad pitch. He’s been awful since returning
