Gunnar or Witt try to be impartial? part2

Gunnar was extremely disappointing yesterday. 

He had several good pitches to hit and he couldn’t get around on them. We need him to step up.

Witt didn’t do much yesterday and his hit was well placed (albeit not hit hard) but at least he put the bat on the ball in a big situation.  Gunnar  looked awful in multiple of his at bats. 
 

He did do a good job drawing the walk but he just has to be more than that.

Good take.  Witt got one pitch to hit and impacted the game.  Gunnar got a couple and failed to capitalize.

    • We should really shake the lineup up and start all the bullpen guys in the field and put the regulars in the bullpen. 🙄
    • I’m not fired up but if you make posts like that, you should expect people to respond with confusion. 
    • We are 2.5 point favorites. The Bengals are obviously off to a disappointing start.  I think they finally have all their weapons on offense back though, and they did just drop 34 points on the Panthers.   Yes, i know it's just the Panthers. Hopefully we build on our momentum from last week.  I don't know of any serious injuries that we need to be concerned about yet.   Keep running the ball with authority and forcing them to guess what's coming.
    • Below is how is a comparison of Adley’s 2023, first 3 months of 2024, last 3 months of 2024, and MLB 2024 averages. One of the bigger issues has been the spike in pop-ups.     2023  H1 24 H2 24 MLB  PAs 681 356 279 - K% 14.8 18.3 13.6 22.8 Walk % 12.6 7.9 9.7 8.0 whiff % 15.6 19.9 13.4 25.4 Chase % 23.4 30.0 27.6 28.5 wOBA .352 .353 .252 .310 xwOBA .373 .346 .283 .315 BABIP .303 .324 .211 .289 ISO .158 .176 .093 .157 LA 13 18 20 13 GB% 42.9 34.7 35.3 42.3 PU% 4.7 4.2 11.7 7.1 Sweet spot % 37.0 41.2 28.2 34.0 Avg EV 88.4 89.5 86.6 88.8 Hard hit % 38.6 43.1 28.6 29.2 Barrel/BBE 7.5 8.8 2.8 7.9 Bat speed - 67.9 67.1 69.6 Swing length - 7.0 6.9 7.2
    • Ergc is an interesting guy as he wasn't really good til last season  when he was pretty good in OAkland and doesn't have a lot of experience and none in the playoffs at 29 years of age  2021 in AA 5.29 ERA and 1.561 whip 2022 in AA and AAA 4.51 ERA and 1.647 Whip 2023  in AAA 6.46 ERA and 1.565 Whip and 4.75 ERA and 1.054 Whip  2024 At Oakland 3.68 ERA and 1.200 whip,  KC 2.88 ERA and .840 whip So he was bad most his minor league career and was pretty old but kept getting moved up because he has good fastball.  If you trade for him last off season people are wondering why you trade for a guy with those minor league numbers and a decent half season in Oakland.     If i had to take one I would still take Domiguez because of the longer track record and the 16 games he pitched in the post season of 16.1 innings and an ERA of 1.10 and 26 strikeouts with 4 walks vs a guy that had never even pitched in a playoff race.    
    • For the record I don't EXPECT Hyde to start Holliday, and its perfectly reasonable not to.  Just saying what I would do.
