4/18/21 Acuñas @ Cubs - Wilson gets a shot

I would guess that every single coach he’s ever had has asked him.

Why he never took the advice is beyond me.

It's mental. Getting hit in the face will do that to you.

[CyYoung31]

Its because he hates baseball

Holy ****. Shanks was right all along.

[CyYoung31]

It's mental. Getting hit in the face will do that to you.

I have a hard time believing that’s the case anymore.

[CrazyTrain]

It's mental. Getting hit in the face will do that to you.

His batting stance and swing is trash. Not sure what getting hit in the face has to do with that. He had the same issue before he got hit.

People are going look back 20 years from now and wonder who the hell that guy with Freddie Freeman is on that cover of SI from 2011.

I was just thinking along similar lines. I was so amped about Heyward that Freeman seemed almost like a "throw in" to the conversation. Boy, was I wrong.

[zbhargrove]

Holy ****. Shanks was right all along.

Shhhh... he'll hear you

[CrazyTrain]

I was just thinking along similar lines. I was so amped about Hayward that Freeman seemed almost like a "throw in" to the conversation. Boy, was I wrong.

Nearly everyone was.

[USMA76]

Nearly everyone was.

I misspelled "Heyward" prior to correcting it...my bad.

[CrazyTrain]

I would say that Jason is a sad example of an incredible athlete that wasn’t coachable, but he made a god awful amount of money on potential alone.

Hard to call that sad.

[Slippyjms]

Nearly everyone was.

It was like Francouer and McCann all over again

[jsebe10]

Thought it was Dave Stewart

You are absolutely right! That was the year after Towers has passed. My apologies

[USMA76]

It was like Francouer and McCann all over again

I'd forgotten about "The Natural" cover of Sports Illustrated for Frenchy...LOL

[CyYoung31]

Come on, Pablo. Join the veritable hitting buffet.

[CrazyTrain]

Come on, Pablo. Join the veritable hitting buffet.

You know he’s just dying to dig in.

[CrimsonCowboy]

[CyYoung31]

Wow.

[UNCBlue012]

Tomlin just isn’t good at all

[CyYoung31]

Tomlin just isn’t good at all

This is exactly the kind of game he’s supposed to pitch in.

[msstate7]

Why did we pay Tomlin when we didn't have much money? Wright could do his job, and he could do it better IMO

ETA... Wilson, not Wright

[CrazyTrain]

Lol. Jason thinks he’s smarter than every good hitter ever.

What an idiot.
