It was! And it was against Toronto, which I love even more.

Will Rutschman finish above or below .500 OPS on the season? I'll take the under. 24.5 years old and getting embarrassed by players 5 years younger than him. Just pathetic

I will take this bet.

Yeah I wasn't clear, I'm referring to the scores of players who debuted at 18/19 and were far better at that age of 18/19 than Rutschman is at 24.5, such as Harper, Trout, Acuna, Ramirez, Soto, Guerrero Jr etc

Oh, really? Rutschman isn't as good as the very best players in the game? What's your point?

Naw, you've had way worse Posts.  Don't sell yourself short.

The one you quoted was even worse than yours.

Someone’s pathetic.

I don't know if Adley was pressing at the plate, but it's got to be a relief for him to hit his first home run.

That’s a quick bat to get to 94 up and in with that upper cut swing and hit it that far.

He looks completely different than Wieters did when we brought him up.

It would be stunning if he wasn’t a far better player.

Well you see the one is a switch hitting Caucasian catcher in his early 20's...

I agree the one thing that stood about Wieters right away was him being slow at running, moving and his bat speed. Adley by comparison looks like he has above average speed for a catcher and his bat speed has been good. 

If Adley can be a .280 hitter with 50 extra base hits a season during his prime years, I'll be more than satisfied.
