Vaughn on pace for at least 20-25 homers.

Spent the first 6-8 weeks being questioned whether he'd even get 10 all season long.

 

DODGERS HAVE TO TRADE FOR STARTING PITCHING.

See White Sox, Chicago.

Maybe should make sure to keep Burger in the lineup

AV joins the party !!

He's the White Sox third baseman.  Period.

So apparently this series Grifol/Castro started doing a new pregame drill with the guys focused on getting the ball off the ground....

It might be working?

Too bad these are only solo shots ugh

Acceptable when they're back-to-back.

Andrew's had a tough start to the year but I still think the two Andrews are the best bet to give you a "professional" at bat

Did anyone else hear the Sox are setting up screens during batting practice to force the players to try and hit it over the screens to hit less groundballs ?

They played a tape of Menechino and said "everything he tells you to do? The opposite."

Ok, I've seen enough. To hell with defense. Burger needs to stay. He's just that damn good at the plate. He has to be in the lineup every day.

Adios, Yoan.

Definitely not complaining I’ll take them where we can get them with how little this team hits for power

I'd like more production, but I've definitely seen Frazier work an at-bat.

What's gotten into these guys?

Where is this power at home? 4 already in a tough park at night.

Len said they changed their BP routine last night, moved the 1B / 3B protectors to each side of the pitchers mound to make the players focus on elevating the baseballs.

Len said DJ will be back tomorrow in Seattle.

Also how great is Liam.....and good luck Zoe.

Thanks. Len just said he is attending a high school graduation and will be back with the team and Len tomorrow.

Glad Jerry didn't lay him off to save travel costs like the Athletic did with James Fegan.

Cease so many pitches, just not as crisp as previous years.

Burger appears to actually enjoy playing the game. Better than the mopey, grimacing b.s.

That curve ball was a sweet pitch.
