@DubelPolanco@RedbirdFarmhand Brayan Torres is better than all those third base options. We’ve already moved the kid off his natural position and he’s not going to play just second base for the rest of his career.
@WhiskeyBrad@ninjak9er5641 You’re such a fucking pussy if you actually give a fuck about the “sign stealing” which at this point, if real, is just him being able to tell what the pitcher is throwing from their glove. Which is completely fair game and has been since the game was invented
@TheWARmonger_@RedbirdRiot It’s not even necessarily the swing. Look at how he holds his hands now compared to last year. He used to have to move a lot more to get his bat to where it needed to be. He’s eliminated that movement, which essentially does make his full swing shorter
@C_R_Enn@shanefromml That’s literally what he’s working on. He’s using his off speed a lot in these starts to try to develop them. With that can come some bad performances because those pitches aren’t where they need to be. It’s his first full year of pro ball and he’s 22.
@DragonflyJonez@DrewDrake Cause that’s his right to do so if he wants. Brunson didn’t make the gameplan so why should he divulge it? Even if the game plan is the simplest thing in the book lol
@5_centt@SwingSkill It especially fucking sucks when we’re in an era of the NBA where different teams are making the finals every year. The current system works perfectly fine. Maybe could’ve added a couple guardrails but for the most part all the changes were a complete overreaction
@tom_hart All they had to do was put the sleeve patch on the hat and it would’ve been money. Instead they put zero thought into it as if the hat wouldn’t be bought more than the jersey
@BeaneaterB Basically every research platform with filters only goes back to 1901. Would’ve taken just a little more digging on baseball reference to confirm it’s the most in history but they’re just being safe with that qualifier
@ryan05foster The Braves and BravesVision themselves have designers. That shit is getting posted on CJ’s personal twitter. Do you expect them to hire a personal designer for him?
@cinderellanvm@Srry_Kid I’ve lived in much worse cities and areas and have never been concerned of being shot once. Hell, I used to walk an hour to get home at 11 pm in downtown Memphis when I had an internship there for three months. You’re just a gigantic pussy who’s scared of black people
@echann7 As someone who loves Brayan Torres and his story deeply I would be over the moon if he runs with this opportunity. Happy he was the guy they went with for now. He’s more than deserving
@kgriffinburner6 He closed his stance, stopped holding the bat straight up and now holds it in a spot where he can more easily get to a good bat path and has shown a lot better pitch recognition. There’s also more mechanical changes but those are what I can see myself as a fan.
