GDT 6/13/19: Keep the steak alive

Dansby must be getting the best kooch of his life.

Not that I approve of engaging in pre-marital sex.

 

[Enscheff]

Riley is much better vs LHP

It's important to note that JD is getting all these fastballs to hit because Markakis is protecting him in the lineup.

Dansby should know better than to engage in such illegal activities. It's the Bible Belt for christ sake.

And taking a woman across state lines for the purpose of engaging in some sort of sexual act is a violation of the Mann act!!

Idk. I'm worried about his declining batspeed. All his homers are to right field, not hitting any to left. Late swings.

Halving his current BABIP and HR/FB numbers gets him into the realm of reasonable (.340 and 24%). Those more sustainable rates paired with his current peripherals would translate to a current slash line of about .231/.281/.462 (.742 OPS).

I wonder how many folks will be surprised at the severity of Riley's regression if the BB and K rates don't improve?

Riley since June 1:

142 PAs, 34.5% Ks, .212/.273/.470, 84 wRC+

How does Enders back feel?

It’s almost scary how exactly the regression was predicted...

He’s also one handing everything.

Kind of like Zito at a playground.

Back of the baseball card’s starting to look pretty good!

Riley did a good job staying back on a decent breaking ball.

 

[Heyward]

Riley got a hit

Do. Not. Throw. Riley. Pitches. Down. The. Middle.

It’s pretty amazing what he can do with pitches in the middle of the plate. Don’t think I’ve seen anything like it.

we want them to as it's the only way he gets a hit

At the start of the season he was asked what fans could expect when he was dialed in at the plate. He said when he’s at his best he hits with power to the opposite field.
