Another big night, going 3 for 4 with a HR and a double. That brings the wRC+ up to a cool 165 since the beginning of May. -
Today in his first plate appearance he walked. The line drive he hit in his second plate appearance had an XBA of .660 and the line drive he hit in his third plate appearance had an XBA of .790. I don’t know whether he’ll get out of the current slump, but that’s terrible luck. I still think Mullins can be a valuable player. He’s had an XBA over .500 on a few other balls in games he has played recently that have been caught. They are already limiting his playing time. While Cowser can play CF, the idea that Hays can play CF has no real basis. His already poor jumps have gotten worse this year. His sprint speed is down to 26.9 ft/s. I’m fact, Santander currently covers more feet in the outfield because of his superior jumps. I get that he hit 2 home runs yesterday, so some people are back in on Hays, but playing him in CF is a terrible idea. -

Oh, no.Perhaps I wasn't clear. Suarez has been solid and an "adequate " starter. I was just saying he cant be the dominant , elite pitcher Bradish is, as good as Suarez has been. I think if we lose Bradish it's going to be a struggle to win against the best teams..But Suarez belongs in the rotation for as long as he pitches well, and he HAS pitched well. -

Roy , are you saying that if Suarez continues to be “adequate “ , they should take him out of the rotation ? what does Suarez has to do with Bradish ? Please elaborate -

Yes I noticed that every 10 games , they alternate either 7-3 or 6-4 . -
Interesting that Povich made it on BA's Top 100, updated 6/5 at #99. Holliday #2, Mayo #17, Basallo #18 and Kjerstad #23. -
I think all will be well if Mike trades effectively, and part of trading effectively is being timely and getting back things you need. we need pitching. We need it right now. good solid pitching.
