    I digress, but I have no idea how to get an accent mark to appear above a letter when I type, either on my laptop or my phone.  Can anyone explain how it’s done?

    Hold that letter down on your phone.

    Starting to wonder if last year was a one-year-wonder type of performance from him.  Certainly wasn't that good before he got here and he hasn't been good this year. 2022 is starting to look like an outlier for him. 

    I don't know how many more chances he's going to get as Tate and Givens are getting closer to coming back but he's not inspiring confidence right now.  I'm sure Holt and the rest are doing what they can to try to get him back to last year's levels but it's not always easy.

    Pretty sure someone posted on here  a few times about how some of his 2022 #s pointed to luck and that he was a prime candidate to regress.

    Yeah, Lopes is Portuguese, so no accent. In Spanish López has an accent, yes, @BohKnowsBmore. Whether it's redundant or not I suppose is in the eye of the beholder...for a spanish speaker López without an accent just looks weird, but I understand that the accent on Canó tells an english speaker more about the pronunciation than the one on López, Pérez, or González. That said, it does look weird, just as a José without the accent does too. Definitely support that movement posted, it's such an easy thing to solve and definitely just is a bit more respectful of what is a huge faction of the game. For instance Núñez spelled Nunez is just a mess...it would be better spelled Nunyez if you don't use tildes, as the Catalans do, who don't use the ñ.

    Damn then they can already take him out because he only had one hit yesterday! (He did have a sac fly and 3 rbi though!) 😉

    6 stolen bases.  5 caught stealing.   Statistically, he’s one of the best players in the league right now.   Still 19 years old for all of May.

    He’s an athletic fella - don’t let the body fool you.  He’s got some tools.

    Glad to be of service.  I think what’s making me happiest about Willems so far is that he’s hitting for average.  I knew he had power, so I’m not shocked at him getting hot enough to hit 5 homers in 3 weeks.  But he’s getting a lot of other hits and his K rate is only 18.2%.  

    He’s been hitting, the k rate is down, and he looks like he knows he’s going to do damage every time he steps on the box.  He’s full of moxy.

    Do  you guys think they will pair James McCann with Grayson Rodriguez tomorrow for the 1st time? I find it odd they didn't play James today after the great game he had vs Wents + catching for Gibson a week ago.

    I think Adley is Gaysons man.  Will be interesting.  Nice observation.  Does seem they are pushing Adley just a bit above optimal.

  8. Willems hit his 5th HR.  BA .422 OPS 1.349.  I think Basalllo competition is doing him a world of good.  The stroke looks good.  Compact, short, and powerful.  He’s using the whole field. 
     

    .77 BB/K rate up from .20 last season.  Only 41 ABs, but all trends looking good.
