Vladimir Guerrero Jr. opens up on his slump year: “They didn’t pay me to hit 40 every year. They paid me for what I already did.”

I want people to understand one thing. The money they gave me wasn’t for what I’m going to do. It was for what I already did. They didn’t pay me because I’m going to hit 40 every year. They paid me for what I already accomplished. People are confused about that, but I think the same way they do. Like, sometimes I even say to myself: bro, they gave you all that money and you’re out here doing nothing. I try.

You know how it is with fans, when you’re good, they’re with you 100%. But when you smell like shit, like we like to say here, nobody supports you.

The ones who support you are the ones who stay with you. Those are my fans. My family.

“When I said that thing about the Yankees losing, you know that right then we won and advanced. You know, the one who wins is the one who enjoys it. When we beat Cleveland I enjoyed it too, I really savored it. So now, nothing’s over yet, but I have to take the heat.” -Junior Caminero

@Brockway_32m Well played 🤣🤣🤣

This is what check swings will look like under MLB’s 45-degree rule.

(These were ruled check swings in Game 7 of the 1965 World Series.)

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

@stanfromwp The sport will evolve for the worse 🤣

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

Fornite dub with my daughter. I taught her well.

Stay for the Michael Myers break dance 😅 #fortnite

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

@stanfromwp It’s ridiculous. I’m sure you can make hard contact with a 45 degrees swing 🤣

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

Please tell me this is sarcasm or pure engagement bait. Because if it’s not, I’m genuinely concerned.

What you’re looking at, is a proposal to call a check swing based on the bat reaching a 45-degree angle in the swing path.

Under the current standard (not spelled out in the rulebook, but how umpires are taught to judge it), the key is the front of the plate, the plane of the plate. If the bat breaks that plane, the batter is considered to have committed to the swing. In this case, the swing path clearly shows the bat crossing the front of the plate.

Hope this helps.

[Jordan Moore @iJordanMoore]

This is how replay review would’ve looked if MLB allowed you to challenge a check swing (which they 100% should).

As I said… it’s very clearly not a swing.

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

@bradleyryder So he’s saying it wasn’t a swing, but by the current standard it clearly was. Under the proposal being tested in the minors, though, it would’ve been ruled a no swing.

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

@DougSteinley I had no idea that was the proposal. That’s pretty wild. That’s 2/3 of a swing IMO

[Master Flip | Phillip Feliz 🇩🇴 @Masterflip_]

Not sure why Yandy Diaz’s swing is generating this much discourse. At first glance it looked like a checked swing, but the side angle clearly shows the bat path crossing the plane of the plate.

I’d be 100% on board with bringing these kinds of challenges to MLB. That said, the clip below doesn’t actually show a true representation of the plane of the plate.

This is how ACS would look, had it been in place
