Dick Allen Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 07:49 PM) I find it odd that Leury has "L Garcia" on his jersey, but Avisail just has "Garcia". In the past, Avisail had "A. Garcia". If Leury was on the opening day roster Avi would have the A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGajewski18 Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Jul 29, 2015 -> 07:49 PM) Avi is really pulling off the ball I think Hawk is right he's gotta step further from the plate and maybe try and use an open stance. More power can be had by opening up your stance as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avi doesn't generate nearly enough torque for a man his size. When is the last time he got his hands extended and powered through a ball for a HR? Maybe that Detroit series 2 months ago.

Sometimes it takes players a few years to really understand how to hit in the MLB. I would not give up on him at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Isn't this Avi's first full season? Injury took him out of last season for the most part... relax on the kid for now. He still has time to come around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injury took him out of last season for the most part... relax on the kid for now. He still has time to come around. Yes he does, but he's also a first-year arb eligible player on a team with seemingly aspirations to compete. $2 million next year isn't bad for this level of performance. $4.5 million in 2017 is what we cut Viciedo loose instead of paying.
