TA's stat line is what Jake would be if he stops hitting homers. Wow, now were going with If's and hypotheticals as opposed to facts. Great logic.

We are 30th in swing% outside the zone. We are 30th in least amount of pitches taken per AB. We are 30th in walks taken. Yeah you're right, I guess that's all Jake's fault we are 30th in most plate discipline stats. The Sox have turned out to be one of the worst teams in MLB. The pity is that the Sox have a large payroll and has some talent but they underachieve, and no adjustments are made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to take a strike before swinging for the first time. You are correct. That's why we are the worst coached team for plate discipline as well as a bad bunch of dumb baseball IQ players.

That won't work long term. It hasn't really been working for a month. Only his power is keeping him in the majors right now. I like Jake a lot, but I can barely watch his at-bats because of the poor swing decisions he makes. He needs to be much more selective or that WAR is going to take a nosedive. I'll take everyone on the team making the same type of bad decisions if they produced like Burger. Oh wait they all do make the same bad decisions as Burger and don't produce like him. The guy has 375 MLB AB's and 25 HR . Give him a chance. The way people were talking about him before he even was in the lineup on a permanent basis you'd think he wouldn't be able to produce positive WAR at all like Vaughn has struggled with. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for a phantom TA IL stint if he isn't heading there already. Maybe that will give him some time to sort his personal/mental health out too.

The way people were talking about him before he even was in the lineup on a permanent basis you'd think he wouldn't be able to produce positive WAR at all like Vaughn has struggled with. I’m absolutely giving him a chance. He’s been making very poor swing decisions, even for this lineup, and he needs to stop doing that. His power is scary good and pitchers are going to work around him. If he gets himself out like this he’s got no chance. If he doesn’t get himself out then he’s a potent weapon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almagest Posted June 17, 2023 Share Posted June 17, 2023 10 minutes ago, The Kids Can Play said: At least Jake can get some home runs with those swings, which most of the other slugs on this team can't do. Let's face it you are one of the peeps in here that are in the camp, I can't stand Jake having any success and I will always criticize him because any success he had is a fluke. Trust me, Jake Burger is not the reason this team is about to go 12 games under 500. But that's fine, keep pointing out Jake as the main reason for this horrible team's record. His power is not a fluke. He’s a dangerous hitter. He can’t be dangerous if he swings at everything. Put your bias aside and look at what he’s doing objectively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
