His OPS is 5000.  He should retire now. It’s not likely to get better than that! 

[Aglets]

Looks like he is going to finish 1 for 4 with a walk.

Pretty cool if you end a day with a 1.400 OPS despite losing 'thousands of points.'   heh

Three run dinger for Willems in his Aberdeen debut.

Man all of our hitters keep doing terrible once they get promoted to Aberdeen.

Just the old ones.

I just saw a photo of Creed Williams for the first time. He's clearly Kenny Powers' son. It's a waste of his God-given talent not to use him as a closer. Come on Elias!

This deserves an even more appropriate Kenny Powers GIF:

Nailed it.

I like how simple and compact his swing has become.  That’s easy power.  Ball really jumps off his bat.

This probably has been talk about to death. With all the offseason workout camps for prospects. Does he refuses to go- I know they are voluntary?

[Triple Crown]

Why are people obsessed with the way he looks? The kid can hit, just enjoy watching him play.

I'm more impressed that he was at a 3-0 count!  He's definitely an aggressive swinger.

Regarding his fitness, he looks active and agile enough behind the plate and on the base path.  I don't have any concerns with how he moves currently.
