Both guys were going out of their way not to pull the ball pathetic TA should not try to pull the ball. We all know what happens when that happens. He’s successful more times than not when he just goes the opposite way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cup of coffee is now empty and it’s time. They're going to give the old excuse that Grifol is more confident with veterans like Sheets and Andrus than an Oscar Colas with his job on the line.

Harry Chappas Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Its amazing that this has been going on for almost 2 years and there is no plan. Grifol has seen this for the whole two years as well. This was a game I go to in prior years there is literally nothing to see offensively. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitting the ball with authority to the pull side would make everything easier for him again as a hitter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dude has grounded out to SS with runners in scoring position more than I can count trying to pull the ball this year.

Our problem has been our terrible offense, lack of clutch hitting with RISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TA will never walk or hit for power, but he should be physically capable of driving a pitch on his hands down the LF line for a double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 What was the scouting report on Burger that caused him to be a high draft pick. The injury is not an excuse any more the guy is useless and regressing each day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
