I think it’s hilarious that people are jumping off the Adley train this quickly.   Not webbrick2010; he was never on it and has just been waiting for Adley to have a slump so he could pounce.  

What slump, his numbers are pretty much in line with his first two seasons. He is what he is

Adley:  “Ho hum.  I’m just rolling along at an 8 rWAR pace.   Pay no attention to me.”

I’ve posted previously the batting stats that make me feel that he’s playing with some sort of ongoing physical ailment. In short, prior to Sunday Night Baseball (my informal marker post for the downt

It kind of got overshadowed by Irvin’s pitching and O’Hearn’s homer, but Adley’s double to break the scoreless tie was just a very professional Adley at bat.  He knew his job was to get a deep enough

One bad month outweighs 2.5 years.

Are you telling me you would still be completely comfortable giving him an 8-10 year extension for 150-200M?

He looks like more out of shape than usual. Wonder if he has injuries that have hurt his training?  
 

We will probably hear about some stuff after the season.

Agreed SG.

He is what he is, a slightly above average hitter, a slightly below average catcher, who may already be past his prime as he seems to be aging poorly.

If Basallo is the future at C I would definitely be looking to trade him for pitching prospects in the off season.

Think of what a package of Gunnar and Adley could bring.  Resets the whole windows for the franchise.

Or he's more occupied with his smokeshow girlfriend on Instagram and commenting on her every post.  

Priorities, Adley!  No women during the season!

This is my thought.  He doesn’t look quick or explosive in anything he does.  It appears he’s laboring out there.  He looks like a shell of himself.

I know alot has been made about how bad his defense has regressed, had there ever been a thought of moving him to first?  I know that would block Mayo and Basallo slightly and leave a gaping hole at catcher.

Hasn't been the same since that foul ball off the hand in July.......Now the back issue.

The foul ball has to be the prime culprit, compounded by the back. He didn't just forget how to hit.
Before getting hit on the hand June 27th and missing a game, he was hitting .300/.351/.480 OPS .830, 27 XBH.
Since that happened, his line is .182/.279/.291, .570 OPS, 9 XBH.

      Gunnar Henderson 2024

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      Gunnar with a heady base running play last night to take 2nd base. He baited the RF into throwing behind him to 2nd base and then took off for 2nd base.  A nice little underrated play. Maybe we just start running wild like Ohtani.

      Clubhouse issues?

      Doesn’t a close loss in tonight’s game, following a win last night after getting blown out in game 1, show that we still have some fight/heart in us? Sometimes a close loss can still build momentum going forward.  Slater tried to drop a bunt down. Gunnar with a heady deek play to take 2nd base. I’d say those classify as trying to do the little things. Even Holliday getting the runner over in the 10th.

      What are your expectations for reclamation projects?   Cano was an All Star last season. We made Jorge Lopez into an All Star. Suarez came out of nowhere and is pitching like a #3. Voth and Spenser Watkins previously came out of nowhere to pitch like #3/#4 types.  Perez and Coloumbe have turned into heck of LH RP. Webb.  Means and Wells were developed by the staff after not looking like anything special previously.  Bradish was not a top prospect when acquired from the Angels. Struggled in his debut. Was a top 10 SP in the AL before injury. Maybe top 3-5.  Some people got Sydney Sweeney expectations. 😍

      Dean Kremer 2024

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      In a 3 game Wild Card Series we get Burnes, Eflin, and Suarez going. We should have Grayson, Kremer, Povich, Webb, and Coloumbe, in the pen to help cover innings.  Offensively we will have back Westburg and Urias. Maybe Mounty and Kjerstad.  We are ok. Just gotta hit.

      Holliday for Norby?

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      In their last 15 games, Rivera .996 OPS Norby .945 OPS Ramon has also been killing since May/June.  This isn’t why we’re struggling. That would be Adley, O’Hearn, Mountcastle, and Eloy.

      I expect Kjerstad and Coulombe activate tomorrow.

      Os claim Emmanuel Rivera; DFA Vavra

      By sportsfan8703 · Posted

      It’s hard not to like his .996 OPS in his 14 G and 29 AB with us.  He reminds of back in 2012 when we needed a lot of contributions from a lot of unexpected players to win.
