Or the coaches are too stubborn to preach launch angle. You can’t tell me the Twins or Astros wouldn’t excel at getting Eloy to elevate instead of pounding the ball into the ground.

Harold's Leg Lift Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 150 years of baseball and no one has ever thought about hitting the ball out in front of the plate. Shut the hell up, Bennetti. He's getting more annoying by the day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Bullshit call by the umpire, but it must be nice to have catchers try to frame. Castillo wasn’t even trying last inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many homers do you think is a reasonable number someone will hit? Eloy is in his first year and will be better next season just like Yian improved. Eloy does have 22 homers and is a line drive hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim makes some flashy plays sometimes - but overall he is a poor defensive shortstop. There isn’t anything wrong with Tim that experience and hard work can’t correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason for him to be here right now along with about half a dozen other awful veterans. This is a dog and pony show.

pcq Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Only Yolmer and Engel are working on launch angle. Eloy can't even bunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he'll help us land the 7-8 spot in next years draft. While we're on the subject. Is every one else happy to know, we never have to root for losses again after this September?
