So yes, this is true. And logic usually dictates that it will catch up to him.

But when you’re stuff isn’t that good, walks aren’t kryptonite. I’d rather he walk a guy throwing a slider 3-1, then groove a 90 MPH fastball to just try and get a strike to make it 3-2 and give up extra base hits. It can be frustrating how he knibbles but it’s better than grooving stuff, which he was doing last year

Don’t disagree. And honestly the difference between his solid second half last year and the last 5 weeks is his ability to tighten up when runners get on base. After the error and walk in the 5th (?) he slammed the door. When he is bad, he would let it snowball. It’s a dangerous way to pitch, but it’s working.

Honestly, I think seeing Soroka and Fried have success has been the best medicine for him.

It is what it is, I get it, but to the extent we actually rest guys Camargo and culberson should be starting

Agree. His numbers have suffered for it. He should be getting 3 or 4 starts a week

Especially since Joyce isn’t a defensive stalwart either.

Really curious what AA will do in RF if Kakes keeps struggling like he has.

If Nick is gonna hit sub 700 OPS I’d rather have Ender in CF every day and move Ronnie to RF.

Agree with that. At least Ender can make plays in the Outfield.

Riley, Acuna, Camargo would be great.

Still got 16 games remaining against Philly this year. Division race gonna be a bloodbath

 

[zjcvols]

Pache with a .288/.345/.484 line in AA is really encouraging

If he can keep his OBP around .350 that would be more than good enough for him.
