He is a 27 year old with a .524 BABIP and a career K% of 27%.

I laughed out loud

But I will say, as a P conversion, I won't knock the whiffs. Seems like a great athlete and hope he turns into at least a AAAA replacement bat. That BABIP is just fantastic.

I think he will just become another leblanc rule 5 success story who sticks around as minor league filler, but his BABIP is .524 just since he's been in jax for a few weeks. His BABIP for the year is slightly high but not crazy and he was really good in AA as well. Also, the whiffs are not accurate at least this year. this year it was 17.2% in AA and now 14% in AAA. He has improved in that regard. High BB rate too.

You heard it here first, gurriel and soler will have big games tonight against Kikuchi. Both hit him very well, though Soler is much more limited sample (2 hr's in 6 ab's). Predicting a first inning homer for Soler

[fish16]

eder returned to AA so hopefully he can just stay healthy the rest of the year and maybe get some major league innings under his belt in september if he comes back and pitches well. not expecting anything out of him and meyer until next year though.

and paul mcintosh was reinstated from the il and finally sent to AAA

[Nick]

Garrett Hampson in CF tonight. Xavier Edwards still in AAA.

Eury is absurdly good

[Namaste]

Kikuchi reminds me of David Wells

[Namaste]

Imagine what our record would be if we weren’t on a historic GIDP pace

[lou]

They really need Rogers and Cueto back. Eury needs to be pitching in August and September with a playoff reserve.

What an animal.

I can’t see the name Yimi Garcia and not think of the 4 run lead he (and Mattingly) blew against Atlanta. It ended up being the beginning of the end of that season.

Same. It feels like the braves blew us out right from the jump in that series but we were up 4-1 with sandy on the mound in that game before sandy blew the lead and then yimi ended up blowing it later

[fish16]

First base is quickly climbing up the list of needs. Cooper has to go. He has to be one of the worst all stars ever

[fish16]

Get Garrett hampson the fuck off this team. First the misplay and lack of hustle earlier now misses the cut off man and allows the potential 2nd run to get to second. Why the fuck is Xavier Edwards not up here

[Namaste]

Terrible decision to throw the ball home by Hampson.

[fish16]

Blowing this game is terrible. Eury could not have been more impressive and just no one in the lineup comes to play. Please do not wait till the deadline to get some bats this won’t continue
