That was his problem in the minors, it's still a problem. He's not hitting velocity. He's crushing basically everything else. He's crushing two-seamers and cutters. But when the fastball gets a little faster... Prior to this game, he has a .114 average against 4-seamers and it's the pitch he sees the most, it's dragging down his stats. If he figures it out, he's a superstar. But I think that's where his bust potential still lies. Pretty bad against changeup too, but low sample size. It also looks a lot like a 4-seam fastball...

caulfield12 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 (edited) 4 minutes ago, fathom said: Just cut him this offseason Does JR have the money on hand to cut a $30+ million check? You know they're basically stuck with him until trade deadline 2027. Keuchel was the only big money guy they did that with, not even Grandal.

But honestly, has Getz even acquired a better outfielder yet to replace Benintendi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
