  1. Yeah I don't have numbers or anything but I feel like, before they shifted, the same things used to happen, where hard hit balls were outs (at-him balls, or hang-wiffums if you will) and soft hit balls (duck-snorts) were hits. The fact that Hawk even named them shows that it happened often enough. I agree about the psychology aspect... What I think needs to happen is pitchers should pitch more to the shift and hitters should learn how to hit more against the shift. Although I'm sure that's a lot harder to do than it sounds...and I think pitchers are probably pitching more to the shift than hitters trying to hit against it.
  2. I watched Eaton shag flyballs and take bp yesterday. He definitely looks healthy.
  3. Im at the game, sitting near the plate...even I could tell those pitches were strikes. Brutal.
  4. It was fun while it lasted, Yermin. Glad I got to see that homer in Minnesota. Now hopefully I get to see some good Burger action tomorrow at Comerica.
  5. I think the more important thing to note here, is that we will have both Jace FRY and Jake BURGER on the team. In addition to Hamilton and Burr. Remember a couple years ago when they had all 3 outfielders with the last names Garcia? This organization is effing weird lol
  6. I'm going to the game in Detroit on Saturday. I would really like there to not be any more fucking injuries because this happens every time I'm about to go to a game. Please and thank you. Would love to see a competent team fielded in person. Also would love to see Burger make his debut.
  7. Moncada dove into the dirt like it was a swimming pool
  8. Sheets has a sexy ass left handed swing. I LOVE how much he goes the opposite way.
  9. Good comp. Man he just looks like a dude that is going to be successful up in the bigs.
  10. Yeah buddy! And that was a nice hit too! Took it the other way!
  11. And they let him off the hook. Hurry back Luis and Eloy ???
  12. True. But no pitch can make Vaughn's swing not look good. Damn is that a sexy swing.
