Imagine paying Eric Hosmer 18million a year for the next 7 seasons.

lol

This guy has a similar setup as Kimberly.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

This is one skinny dude throwing 100

 

[thewupk]

yup. he's sitting at 104

 

[msstate7]

Not even close to the reported 105

 

[thewupk]

This is one skinny dude throwing 100

arm blowout soon

 

[cajunrevenge]

Smart at bat. Make the kid throw strikes.

 

[cajunrevenge]

Only thrown 2 strikes and he has 2 outs..... should have waited him out.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

arm blowout soon

Hope not, but you dont see little guys like this throwing that hard.

 

[msstate7]

Riley has his issues with sliders for sure, but the "slow bat" may have been fake news

 

[cajunrevenge]

Wow 101.8 mph

When he guesses fastball, and gets a fastball in the zone, he has no issue turning them around.

It's everything else that causes him issues, and length in the swing could be a big part of it.

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Kid's first strikeout is Brian McCann. That's not bad

 

[CyYoung31]

Btw, I fully expect McCann to regress pretty hard in the 2nd half, being a 35 year old catcher and all.

 

[Braves1976]

Wow 101.8 mph

he hit 101.9 too.

 

[AerchAngel]

Brad Komminsk swing.

 

[msstate7]

he hit 101.9 too.

Which is very impressive. They were saying 104-5 though, so kind of a meh bc of the hype

 

[CrimsonCowboy]

Machado can hit

 

[thewupk]

[thewupk]
