I think MANY would appreciate this.

Rick Hahn: We still need to see how he handles a slump. He hasn’t had one yet. He’s gotta check that box.

I can only imagine what those game reports say. The hitting coach has to be running out of things to say.

4 quality AB’s but he hit a 2-0 fastball for a double instead of a home run.

4 quality AB’s but his shirt was untucked and his left shoe was untied.

4 more quality AB’s but he has fungus growing on his shower shoes.

In fairness, I got to watch him practice and play for 2-3 years before he got on anyones radar. And he worked his ass off and was hungry as hell in that time.

You were also spot on about Stowers though I think I got you on Touki. I need Bullock to come thru so I can tie this thing up. :lol:

I’m going to the game Wednesday night (got to, it’s Grateful Dead night) but I highly doubt Eloy is brought up that soon. Man that would be great though.

Keep telling you, Ako. Or now Ziad Walker. He's been playing up since he was 8 and hates losing. He'll be at Michigan State this spring.

If they really plan to keep him down for control reasons they are playing with fire.

IMO, this speaks to what they are going to do in FA. I don't think they are going to go after Machado or Harper. If you were, you would showcase both Eloy and Kopech to show them, where this is going. I am all about the rebuild, but this is ridiculous!

Of course they're not going after high priced free agents.

If and when they do, it won't be guys like that. It'll be the 2nd or 3rd tier guys.

You dont want Harper.
Machado would be nice but that's not happening.

If Kershaw opts out that would be my #1 target.

Hahn's not sure the team can compete by 2025.

Can't get any of those. We have a AAA fan base. Superstars don't want to play here. Might as well say Tampa Bay has Kershaw targeted.

Service time with starting pitchers is ridiculous. As if you can count on 7 years of them being good.

He may not even opt out, but if he does they should consider it. Look at Verlander, the great ones can stay great for a long time.

but you would rather have control than not have control if all it costs you is a couple of months in an already dead season

Pretty sure he is playing 3B. Sadly, our best 3B prospect....
