E! isn't the celebrity's boss. This would be more akin to the producer of a TV Sitcom going public with issues he is having with the child actor added in season six because the original kids on the show aren't cute anymore. If say the guys at the Sun wrote a piece about how Hays and Mountcastle needed to improve their plate discipline that would be fine, and much more inline with what E! does.

Which is good, but do we know if they were the same quality of pitches? For instance you might have the near strike meant to induce a swing or you might have the not so close, I don't want this guy to hurt me ball. It is kinda the counterpoint to Rickard's decease in walk rate. If pitchers fear you you will walk more. If they don't fear you you will walk less. I will say that yes, Schoop did look to have a better approach both last season.

This is Mountcastle's first big league camp right? He has no realistic path to the big league club this year right? I'd give him a bit more or a chance before I consigned him to blockhead status. I have no issue with Buck laying into him. None. Have at it. I just don't see the win in taking things public with kids in the minors and rookies.
-
You are right. Buck has no problem publicly calling out kids in the minors or rookies but if he does talk to his vets it is in such a way to help shield them from outside scrutiny. Me, I think that if calling Mountcastle out in public is a good idea than maybe calling Davis out in public for his called third strike issue might be a good idea as well. So yea, I think he should afford all his players the same level of respect.

Don't want the Eastern League to get too good a look at him.
-
I saw a quote from Buck that basically said this experience was doing him good. Pretty sure he's penciled in for another start.

Can't be providing free video of our regulars to other teams. What if they see Davis take a strike three down the middle? Word might get out.
