Chris Davis 2019 and beyond

[amdcpus]

Second multi-hit game in the past 3 for Davis. Past 3 games he's looked a lot better at the plate IMO.

Davis has his strikeout rate down.  The results haven’t been great but don’t be surprised if he is better than people think.

Committing to his swing earlier.  More contact but it's weaker.  I wouldn't expect that to change.

He was over swinging.  He will hit better with an easier swing.  Still plenty of power.

Booing is not always directed at the player.  I booed Jim Johnson so Buck would stop putting him in with the game on the line.

I agree with you. But about a year or so ago, we had a knockdown, dragged out fight over booing Ubaldo. The mods finally locked the thread.  Ubaldo is gone, fans no longer have him to kick around. So I gather it's now time for CD to be kicked around.

Booing Davis or Ubaldo or any of "your own" is more akin to a fatherly kick in the pants...

How much money is this worth?

I am willing to give Chris a couple more weeks to get things together.  Don't know if an injury is affecting his swing, he is over thinking or age is starting to creep in.  I think it is injury or his mind is not focused.

About tree-fiddy.

 

Those numbers at first or DH are rather obviously unimpressive.

As for his attempts at adaptation, good on him but I think that pitchers will respond by throwing more breaking pitches.

That line has basically no information in it that allows me to make a good estimate of its value. Since I know we are talking about Chris Davis in 2017, he was worth -2.9 million last year according to Fangraphs.

A tough battle against Chris Sale, doing well fouling balls off... only to see a fastball right down the middle go by.

No doubt to me that's become the book on him.  I wish I knew why he can't pick that particular pitch up.

Still calling Chris Davis the Crusher is like a 34 year old gas station attendant still wearing his high school letter jacket.
