    Video of Ruiz' bomb.

    Like his set up, pretty quiet. Seems like he smoked that one with ease.
    He has a deep load on his swing that, in the past, has thrown off his sequencing.

    I was wondering that about Swanson too. He gets to many days off. He's 22, it's not like he's out of shape.

    It's his first full year of professional ball. That's quite a change on the body the first time

    They've probably decided he's tiring out from the long season, which could explain some of his recent struggles.

    He has to be battling some sort of injury. There's just no way he should be struggling this badly at AA after playing so well earlier at the same level. I wouldn't be shocked at all to read after the season that he was playing through some sort of injury.

    There's no way they would let him play through a wrist, hand, back or oblique injury, so I'm guessing something like a bum ankle or hammy.
