Harold's Leg Lift Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 5 minutes ago, Dominikk85 said: Scott kingery got a private guy named schenck. He is a pool hall owner who made himself known by insulting everyone on Twitter and in internet forums which all banned him. That guy had success with Aaron Judge but most guys who worked with him strike out a ton (judge too but he has enough power and patience to make it worse). He claims to be the only guy who understands a magic elite swing pattern and fights with everyone who disagrees with him and he has a little cult of followers. They basically teach extreme lean back over the rear leg and then turn the handle of the bat straight down which means they can hit pitches down well but nothing in the upper half Jason ochart from the Phillies said that mlb teams try to prevent their guys from working with him because of that but he had success with judge so that attracts some guys who want to hit for more power. Most end up like kingery or happ though unless they have extreme power and plate discipline to make that approach work That guy's a clown. I can't wait to watch the video from last weeks hitting clinic where he was exposed for the fraud he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope for his sake that Kevin Long can bring him some success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dodgers are loaded with LH position players with varying degrees of worth and versatility Lux, Beaty, McKinstry, Outman (AA), Carson Taylor (Bats: S, A+) One thing I notice about the Dodgers and I have no idea if it's part of their philosophy or if it's just my imagination, they seem to draft a lot of LH position players. To me this makes a lot of sense . With so many RH pitchers you are likely to get more value in later round draft picks who are LH. They adjust to the minors quicker and put up better numbers facing RHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 For some background, this guy is apparently a Padres insider (no idea if a good one or not, but he is followed by NSC…lol).

Shit, he’s been a top 10 Phillies prospect for three straight years. Honestly, I think if we can get him and are prepared to spend $190M+ then I’d be all about that trade even if Segura isn’t a perfect fit IMO.

SoCalChiSox Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Segura and Marchan don't seem like "nuts" to me. Two undesireable pieces with onerous salaries being exchanged and they're throwing in a little something else....big deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
