    He caught up to that high fastball and crushed it, not many on the team can do it.

    significant correction is how I would put it...kid is doing great and I'm rooting for him...maybe the K rate is a small sample thing

    I'm as big a Swanson fan as there is here, but I really don't think they're very similar offensively. I think Riley is a better hitter by far

    In 217 PA (AAA and mlb) this season, Riley has 21 HR and 12 2b. That's an extra base hit every 6.6 PA.

    When the ball is looking as big as it is for him right now, I expect him to be swinging a lot.

    .481 and 46.2% right now.

    How is it possible some of you are still fooled by rates like this after seeing numbers like these regress countless times now?

    Who has said he won't regress? Some of just don't think he's gonna regress into a garbage player.

    No one said he is going to be a garbage player. I think he is going to be a good solid player. If I were going to peg his OPS in the second half of this year, I would go with something in the .800-.850 range.

    Then that's a lot to be excited about imo esp considering he'll be 3b in the future

    He has certainly shown a lot of promise.

    Of course, he'll regress, he's a Southerner. ;)

    What in the world are you talking about? Stop your crying and put me back on ignore please. Then learn how to use a question mark.

    I'm having a lot of fun watching him, I'm glad we didn't trade him, and I'm getting a strong Frenchy vibe from him.
    Hopefully the adjustments he seems to make at every level will minimize that last one.
    Go get him!
