Doesn’t the C has an option ?

I agree. I also think he will improve. He has the tools to be a good OFer. It takes tens of thousands of reps during BP to learn spin off LH & RH batter’s bat. The good ones can read the swing, contact, spin, and trajectory and take an almost perfectly straight line no mater drop step left or drop step right. I think he’ll get there but it is a current weakness for him. He has some speed, height, and wing span to make Up for a bad first step & route but x% will eventually burn him w/o improvement. Hes suited for RF. What was that throw the other night? 97mph?

Bowie catchers are place holders. Ardoin probably isn’t ready to move up to AA. I think once Ardoin moves up Willems will follow.

Little guys w/o pop don’t cut it at MLB (typically). He’s gotta prove it but its possible. Yuli is a contact artist. Most kids here are taught to crank and yank. International kids learn how to hit. @Just Regular how’d I do?

route. Heck of a catch, though. Still gotta catch it.

That’s fair. It was a hell of a play.

Where on the world was he playing?

3rd reverse jinx is the charm

I can’t argue with that, but when ball goes up to the best OF in league you had better know GD well you are gonnA make it. I’ll concede it took me incredible play to get him but…..it’s Acuña, he makes incredible plays.

Because If you are home team 1 run wins. Chances the calculus. 1 run for the away team does not win the game.

I guess I get the BP angle but you can make adjustments after the game. Taking series from ATl in ATL should be the only though

I like that play when you are the home team.

Win today.

When you are away you play for big inning, not one run. Doesn’t matter if it’s 10th or 13th.

See my edited comment lol

Care to explain why? I see no strategic advantage.

Oh snap/. Baumann in. Gosh. Hope he doesn’t get whiplash

Yes they are, but no time clock in baseball. Still have a shot edit: didn’t see Baumann was in lol

He was already on scoring position ? You want him to steal home or something?

That’s a good thing. I go out of my way to thank and acknowledge people who take & do their job well and do it with pride.

You know…when being on scoring position just isn’t good enough. Unreal

Hell of a play Acuña.

Thought that’s was Frazier. It pisses me off to no end when IFers reach for ball on tag play.

Ballsy Adley. Love it. Make plays, win games

Terrible Frazier. JJ Hardy makes that play. Tell your kids ball is way faster than your hand.
