I think Ke'Bryan Hayes, if his offseason work on his back went as well as expected, is going to surprise a lot of you all this year with the bat including me.
I think barrels can be taught. I might be crazy.
If Hayes can even find the barrel 6-8% of the time, it becomes one of the greatest trades Krall has ever made, because the results will take care of itself at GABP.
Valaika should be working overtime with him to help him find barrels, it shouldn't be much of a task because he already squares the ball up a high amount, a very simple tweak could unlock a lot more from Hayes and it's why the Reds traded for him.
Early results were there, too, as we witnessed, but his body is failing him, which is what scares me... the lower back is one of the most important pieces of a good hitter and Hayes simply hasn't been able to figure out a way to manage his pain.
I think part of signing Suarez was knowing Hayes could really use 2 days a week off and only come in later in games... Not my favorite thing but it is what it is. We'll see what happens.

The reason you trade for and sign VETS is so you DON’T have to ease into it. This defense is awful 2 games in and there is NO excuse. I don’t want to hear you have to wait for guys to mesh. They are fundamentally BAD. 30+ points given up 2 weeks in a row. Guys getting manhandled. I’m sorry, but heads have to roll early. This is absolute BS.
There is absolutely no doubt that Charlie Kirk killed by an intelligence grade assassin.
This was not a “crazy leftist” or some random civilian.
A well placed shot from 200 yards out, down angle from a rooftop, directly in the neck.
Precision like that doesn’t come from a protester with a grudge, it comes from someone who’s drilled this a thousand times under military glass.
Whoever is behind it, this was a highly skilled marksman who had logistics, support, and funding, with a well-executed retreat plan.
Absolutely nothing feels right about this.

Severance is a great show. I’m sure you Stoners love it, shutting your brain down for large parts of your day to avoid tough things going on in life is right down your alley.
