Around Baseball 2015 Edition

Maybe he isn't good at making adjustments. I don't know either.

I really don't understand it. His career will be more successful than someone like Frenchy, but he just doesn't adjust, you're right. Whether he was way too overrated or he's hurt, it's frustrating to see it. So much potential.

The Heyward reverse jinx.

The Heyward reverse jinx.

When he connects with the ball I love his swing. That was home run was crushed.

David Hale has seven strike-outs this afternoon.

 

[Heyward]

The Heyward reverse jinx.

He still isnt hitting that well this year.

OBP barely over .300, in before people say i hate him now.

I think he'll have a better 2nd half though.

I hope he does get better. Just not better than Nick The Stick.

MLBTR: "The Twins have released outfielder Jordan Schafer, director of communications Dustin Morse announced on Twitter. He had been on the DL with a knee sprain.

Schafer, 28, had a nice run with the Twins last year after being claimed off waivers from the Braves. That led the team to tender him a contract through arbitration, ultimately agreeing upon a $1.55MM pact.

This year, however, has been a disappointment. Schafer owns a meager .217/.250/.261 slash over 74 plate appearances. The typically fleet runner has also gone 0-for-3 in stolen base attempts."

"After tendering the speedy center fielder a contract for 2015, the Twins organization was surprised and dismayed to find that Jordan Schafer was, in fact, Jordan Schafer."

I remember people being upset we DFA'd him last year. Guy just isn't good and can't stay healthy. Shame in a way, but he isn't that good. And it's not like he's Cameron Maybin wher ehe was a top prospect.

Maybe Heywood will take a 1 year deal to rebuild his value. Then Hart can trade him again.

He was ranked a top 25 prospect in baseball before the suspension

Chad McDonald should be given a job for life with the organization.

I'd still sign Jason to a 5 year deal if he would take 15 per year.

If Fried pans out, that is some haul.

Scherzer has a perfect game through 6 innings.

He's three outs away.

Perfect game gone on HBP
