    • Are you saying that the coaches they have in AAA are better than the ones they have in the majors?
    • Not all that surprising about Holliday. He needs a reset and to work with the coaches in Norfolk on fine tuning his mechanics and pitch identification. McKenna passed through waivers when they DFA'd him off the 40 man roster so the organization probably feels they can squeeze him through pretty safely again. Which means if McKenna is going to consistently pass through waivers, it essentially acts as a bonus option year and also allows them to free up space on the 40 whenever they need it. Other than McKenna, the only other DFA candidates at this moment are relief pitchers and this organization loves to rotate their bullpen arms.
    • Hopefully.The Tides have been playing lousy since he was brought up. He needs to stay down till the Tides clinch a playoff spot. 
    • He's hitting better against RHP than LHP this season.  
    • True.    The comment in the Minors forum the other day I think from Baseball America about his swinging strike rate being good hit me odd as I'd noticed the strikeouts too. Fangraphs today has him in 2024 IL at 10.9% SwStr%.    That's ~50th percentile, whereas his K% is only about ~20th percentile.    I might give him a little grace on the raw K% number as he's doing well crushing a lot of pitches. I think Mayo may have a little extra excitement to show himself the best Bat in a lineup with Austin Hays and Jackson Holliday next week.
