Knackattack Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 QUOTE (Mike F. @ Sep 6, 2015 -> 12:52 PM) He has 12 as a leadoff guy. His job is to get on base, not hit homers, but he does anyway. There's no doubt in my mind that he'd be a 25+ homer guy if he tried to hit them out every at bat. You know he only hit 1 last year right? I think 15 is probably going to be what he gets this season and might end up as a career high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pettie4sox Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Hmmm if you say so. I think Eaton should concentrate on getting on base more. His K rate seems up this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His K rate seems up this year. I think it's worth noting that despite him hitting a ton more HR, His offensive production in 2015 measured by RC+ is actually down from 2014. Still a solid hitter, but these extra HR aren't translating to a big offensive upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggins Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 In general he hasn't made many mistakes. Sal Perez is really strong. The pitch to Dyson was a mistake, but two solo shots isn't bad. He hasn't walked anyone (yet) which is REALLY important for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall solid, just hung a pitch for an easy HR but for the most part he's been really good, good control, attacking hitters, not a lot of hard contact against him, throwing all 4 pitches effectively.

Balta1701 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Maybe we spoke a bit too soon with the praise. 2 quick HR. Again not a great pitch, fastball pretty much down the middle thigh high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 EJ just got hit by a broken bat shard that flew from home plate, he blocked it and deflected it with his arms so that he wasn't stabbed, but man that was close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balta1701 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Both the umps and Alexei were distracted by EJ getting hit by the bat, but replays going to show Alexei probably threw him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
