Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 He hits the ball so freaking hard, man. Only 1 K in 8 PA! Near inches away from hitting a grand salami yesterday... Also, I don't think he's messed up any routine plays at 3B yet! Sano just wants to be known as SUPER athletic, and to be loved. Let's love him on this thread.
gunnarthor Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 I predicted he'd be an all-star this year.
GP830 Verified Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 If the season was 2 games long, he'd have a strong case for MVP, No?
Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2017 Author Posted April 6, 2017 If the season was 2 games long, he'd have a strong case for MVP, No?With a 378 OPS+ I'd say so!!

Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2017 Author Posted April 6, 2017 Van, you know, you could have linked to video.....I can't at work...I've been mobile all week without a laptop! You're right, this thread sorely lacks video, gifs, and memes... Maybe another Sano lover can help us out.
Mike Sixel Old-Timey Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 First time I've seen it. It sure looks like a popup swing at first. Man is strong.
drjim Provisional Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 It is pretty amazing he can take a pitch that is diving down and in and drive it that far to the oppo power alley.
ThejacKmp Provisional Member Posted April 6, 2017 Posted April 6, 2017 It is pretty amazing he can take a pitch that is diving down and in and drive it that far to the oppo power alley. The oppo is the best part of it. He's going to hit a lot of doubles this year. So excited for the 7th inning.

DiscGolfer Verified Member Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 From where I was sitting on Monday I didn't see the ball at all but heard the crack of the bat and you knew it was gone
Squirrel Community Moderator Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 From where I was sitting on Monday I didn't see the ball at all but heard the crack of the bat and you knew it was goneYes, but did you drink at his athleticism?
nicksaviking Community Moderator Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 It is pretty amazing he can take a pitch that is diving down and in and drive it that far to the oppo power alley.Also pretty amazing he made it to third with ease. Not only because he's faster than he looks, but also because he hustled the whole way. Plenty of guys slimmer and speedier than him would trot that out assuming it was either gone or a fly out.
Bark's Lounge Verified Member Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 I'm glad we have him and the enemy doesn't. The sky is the limit for this Hulk of a man. There seems to be a Zen type of cloud hovering over this team right now - I hope it stays! Let's prove the naysayers wrong. Viva la revolución!!!
DiscGolfer Verified Member Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Yes, but did you drink at his athleticism?
DiscGolfer Verified Member Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 There were plenty of adult beverages consumed
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Also pretty amazing he made it to third with ease. Not only because he's faster than he looks, but also because he hustled the whole way. Plenty of guys slimmer and speedier than him would trot that out assuming it was either gone or a fly out.20 more lbs and he would have stumbled around first because we all know Sano can't go to his left.
Pardon My Dinger Verified Member Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 20 more lbs and he would have stumbled around first because we all know Sano can't go to his left.So the guy's not an ambiturner. Big deal!

Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted April 11, 2017 Author Posted April 11, 2017 Dude just continues to mash pitches all over the field....
Vanimal46 Old-Timey Member Posted April 13, 2017 Author Posted April 13, 2017 Has his last HR landed yet?
Brock Beauchamp Site Manager Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Has his last HR landed yet?Windsor is being evacuated as I type this post.
Pardon My Dinger Verified Member Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 On pace for 54 big ones so far. Keeping in mind that all three were absolute smashes, and he's got a couple close calls mixed in as well, I don't see why that pace shouldn't hold up. Honestly.
Willihammer Provisional Member Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Holy moly. Don't see a lot of fly balls cruise over that 420 sign at Comericahttp://m.mlb.com/video/topic/73955164/v1280829683/mindet-sano-connects-for-440ft-home-run/?query=miguel%2Bsano
Pardon My Dinger Verified Member Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Point being, there may come a point, if not now, then in the next year or two, that Big Mig is considered the most dangerous power threat in MLB, so numbers like that shouldn't be out of the question.

He's so fun to watch this season.
goulik Verified Member Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 "That is big boy territory out there" lol
spinowner Provisional Member Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 "That is big boy territory out there" lolIf someone else hadn't posted what the Tigers announcers said about that today I would have.
spinowner Provisional Member Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Reusse has said that Sano will be the first player to hit a baseball over the third deck at Target Field. It *will* happen.
