Just like Moncada, he might peak at 25 HR. No no no. Still on pace for over thirty considering time missed, weather and humidor impact.

His per 162 average is 31 homers 152 games into his career. He has a career wRC+ is 131. He's already an elite hitter, and that includes large stretches where he looked absolutely helpless at hte plate. Robert can be frustrating to watch at times, but his peak is still best player in the game and he's still far from a finished product. As usual, get a grip on reality.

The possibility of the catcher throwing through in that situation is slim unless he wants Tim to steal home. Plus maybe the 2nd baseman covers 2nd and that ball goes through for a hit then and it's 1 st and 3rd , another run home and still 1 out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players typically play 150 games or fewer and some quick math has him on pace for 25 HR right now.

He hit two absolute blasts last week with no oblique issue or COVID holding him back. He is what we see, not a superstar.

chitownsportsfan Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 (edited) classic hallmark of a mediocre team -- not taking the lead in the top of the inning and potentially allowing KC to retake it in the bottom side. classic mediocre team shit.

(5HR/30GP)*150=25 You said his “peak” is 25 homers. He’s already comfortably beat that 150 games into his career while learning to hit mlb pitching. So it’s not his peak, you’re just being negative; per usual. Edited May 19, 2022 by ChiSox59 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-Train to 35th Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 7 minutes ago, CaliSoxFanViaSWside said: 2nd pitch was the perfect time for Robert to run. The pitcher didnt even look at him. If you cant run Robert on 1st and 3rd with Tim on 3rd and Abreu up when are you going to run him ? Exactly, but it's Tony's strategy to rest his legs for October. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it’s not his peak, you’re just being negative. Let's hold our horses until he actually does it. Way too much projection going on. I've been guilty of projecting young players myself. No more.
