Tyler White has a very confusing batting line. His power completely evaporated. His .268 average is highly BABIP fueled (.423). His K rate is up...
Wonder what their development plan for him is. It looks like he's averaged 3-4 innings per appearance going back to 2015. Is that just the result...
Anyone disturbed by how homer-prone the starting pitching has become?
Bukauskas got a rough write up on FanGraphs today: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/prospect-stock-watch-bukauskas-and-padres-shortstops/
This is backwards. White has the better, albeit still short, track record. White hit .276/.354/.533 with a 141 OPS+ last year.
You almost gotta wonder if it's the yips. A guy who gets to that level should at least be able to put a fastball in the zone semi-consistently....
Guduan is frustrating to watch. Still just a thrower. Straight fastball. Missed his spot several times. Decent shaped slider but again, missed...
His terrible performance is obviously moot with as well as the Astros are playing but if they're going to let anyone be up and flail like that,...
Tyler White is lost. He's watching first pitch fastballs go middle-middle, fighting/fouling off balls, and then getting out on borderline pitches....
He has great stuff and he's on his game tonight. He's throwing a ton of strikes.
I guess I meant in the sense that he's not often catching the inside plate on righties. Seems like most of his sliders to righties land...
Ended up being a classic Giles save. Giles enters in the bottom of the 9th up 6-4. 1) First batter (MarGo), homers. 6-5 2) Second batter walks 3)...
Lol his slider is fantastic and rightly getting the attention it deserves but I'd actually like to see SnapDragon a little more. His peak curve is...
Small sample size but I didn't see many backdoor sliders to lefties or front-door sliders to righties. I wonder if Mchugh doesn't feel as...
Lol hopefully later than sooner. Moving from Durham, NC to Austin in late June and I hope to catch a game down in fayetteville before I leave.
This is such a non-sequitur and/or slippery slope hot take. I could say it’s the libertarian/anarachists’ fantasy to live in a society without rules.
Same. I went to bed thinking “man Tyler White sucks”
It’s a great thing if they pan out. Win-win deals make that team want to trade with us down the line again. I know some people don’t like...
Yep. One of the prospects in the Cole trade, Jason Martin, is having a solid start to his MLB career.
Georgetown University could become the first college in the nation to mandate a fee to benefit descendants of slaves sold by the university nearly...
