@StlllWest Like, wasnt there a report in the playoffs that vlad said he was thinking about trying to to damage, compared to his usual process of trying to hit a ball hard to right center
@maddiecholette I think the issue is people are combining "they need to be better for this team to succeed" and "these guys suck and are awful players and need to be sent to space"
@StonerFilmJoker@JohnnyGiunta_ Bruh Santiago Espinal used to throw the ball through vlad's laces from 3rd... Addy might burn a hole in the glove if hes throwing from 2
@StlllWest Since May 20, when Andres Gimenez drew #TheWalk
.263 AVG (6th)
.327 OBP (9th)
.419 SLG (11th)
.746 OPS (9th)
109 wRC+ (9th)
3.3 fWAR (9th)
The worrying part is they have just a .310 xwOBA, 21st in the league
@yaboi9892@JohnnyGiunta_ No, he shouldn't. He should be used as a leverage arm or a bulk guy out of the pen. Dude has thrown 14 innings in the last 3 years
@Prominent_Jaay We gotta stop talking about the homers man. He needs to be BETTER. Flat out. I dont care if he hits 10 homers or 20 homers or 30 homers or 40 homers or 50 homers. His wRC+ is under 120. Thats the problem. Not the homers.
I’m so excited to share that this summer I’m interning with @Sportsnet ! Ever since I was little my dream has always been to work in sports. Journalism school has prepared me to take on this role with an organization whose content I’ve grown up watching, reading, & listening to every day. I’m so grateful and excited for what’s ahead🫶🏻
