That Florida lineup is so much fun to watch and keep up with. Davidson has been on a tear lately, I'd love to see him bust out. I know he's striking out a lot but to me it means he's swinging more instead of being overly patient.
 
We need Albies to get on a streak. He struggled at AAA last year and isn't doing much better this year. He has no business being called up soon. If anyone says he's playing well as a top 25 prospect, they are delusional. Yes I know he's young

It's pretty disturbing. Walk rate is down to 3% and K rate is at 24%. Those are not good numbers for someone who likely won't have good power.
 
The 3,4,5 combo of Acuna, Jackson, and Riley is becoming pretty potent. Add in that Davidson is hitting so well... quite a scary lineup

At least he is going to finishing school in AAA. Could be worse.

I think it's ok as the youngest player in he league. At least this ends all talk of rushing him to Atlanta.

Yeah, I'm not worried... unless we decide the stupid decision to bring him up this year. He very obviously needs to improve his K and BB percentages. Thankfully he is so young
 
Alex Jackson at a 25% k rate... way down from previous years. Hopefully he can continue this approach up and improve his BB% rate at leaast slightly. That will play all day as a power hitter, especially if he can be a serviceable Catcher. Also seems like he's been doing quite a bit better at Catcher lately. Still real early and he still have to make the toughest jumps, but him turning into a power hitting Catcher would be a real coup.

If I remember correctly, his walk percentages have been fine in past years. Not sure why it's so low now.

Yep, only thing he needs right now is more walks.
