His approach is never going to work. No idea how he can cover the outside pitch.

Acuna and Meidroth would be stars for MIL wuth their collection of shorter players.

McDougal will/should help.

No confidence in his strike throwing ability at all

That is a LONG swing

And he's not fielding SS or CF particularly well either.

Still wonder how someone could scout him and think it would ever work at this level.

He has got to get into the 3BB/9 range.

Hence Stearns cutting bait..

(Reese not the mastur.)

Slappy slappy slappy

Meidroth probably hit that one as hard as he could.

Peters has no power but swings uppercut....go figure...

Day late and a dollar short.

Warning track power.

As someone said earlier, no excuse for Sosa not to be in the lineup somewhere. This looks like a split-squad lineup.

I'm hopeful they can salvage something decent out of him, even a utility guy, but it is not looking good right now. He's a long swing slap hitter with poor outer half coverage and a not great eye.

Not the typical Rays' profile.

He made really weak contact on every pitch in that at-bat, and it's not like the pitcher was acing him on tough pitches.

McGuire was going to bust quickly around the bags but Meidroth shot it straight into Beavers.

I was going to say someone hates Venezuela but they're overplaying Acuna.

This is the one reason I want McGuire on the team

There are 5 guys in this lineup that any average team would be batting 9th, if they had to play them. Somehow the Getz apologists will all blame this on the Baldwin injury.

Choked up right away..it was the definition of a slappy approach

Bergolla is hitting like .510ish after 30 AB, ridiculous

Meidroth hair looking increasingly like Spicolli in Fast Times.
