    I think just a brain fart by Jeffers….gotta know you have two remaining…gotta do it right away, blah blah.
  2. jkcarew
    That’s a run lost on the bases (potentially), and a run lost batting Buxton in front of Martin (there’s been a number of those)…just sayin.
  3. jkcarew
    Outs are really really valuable. One bad send negates several “elite” sends.
  4. jkcarew
    Jeffers just making himself a ton of money right now.

    I don’t remember the Saints playing in Vegas…or anywhere in the pacific time zone last year. Probably did and I just missed it? Mendez hasn’t done anything spectacular in his first 2 AAA games, but sure hasn’t looked overwhelmed…2 singes, 3 walks, 2 K in his first 9 PA.

    Kinda the opposite issue that Rodriguez has…Gonzalez has zero patience, and swings at a ton of pitches out of the strike zone and/or pitcher’s pitches early in the count. The bat-to-ball skills are so good, that it still doesn’t result in a lot of swing-and-miss. But is resulting in a lot of soft contact. Has a microscopic BABiP, so there’s probably SOME bad luck involved, but has work to do there for sure. The good news is the ball is going over the fence pretty frequently when he does make good contact, and his in-game power has been in question (by some)…but that part of it is trending pretty well.

    My only surprise nearly a quarter of a season into 2026 is that we’re not much worse than several other clubs…like 7 in the AL alone..right now. Man there are a LOT of bad teams out there right now.
  8. jkcarew
    We need to win at least 6 of the next 3. Keep your fingers crossed, Peter!
  9. jkcarew
    If Outman hits an HR here, this loss is on Jeffers.

    Fun fact…Klein was the bat boy for my youngest kid’s travel youth team. Don’t know what the future hold for him in the majors…he’s battled the odds just getting there, obviously. Just as obviously, we’re pulling for him.
  11. jkcarew
    Remember 3 years ago when “good” Jeffers was going to have a low OBP, strike out a bunch, but hit 30+ HRs. He’s completely transformed himself as a hitter. Tip of the cap to him.
  12. jkcarew
    Been absolutely abysmal in the field, as well. Agbayani’s floor looks infinitely higher than Young’s, in the field and the batter’s box…a mile ahead of Young right now. But yeah, Young’s power looks undeniable already.
  13. jkcarew
    Nice! If the bullpen can pitch to it’s ERA from here on out, we win a squeaker.
  14. jkcarew
    Buxton buying Larnach dinner tonight.
  15. jkcarew
    Nice to see Keaschall hitting the ball hard.

    Been at a family event. My picks to click were Wallner and the bullpen. How are they doing?
  18. jkcarew
    Well, at least through July anyway. Probably. Hopefully.
  19. jkcarew
    But how many RBI would he have if he was batting behind Martin (484 OBP) and Larnach (424) instead in front of them? The bottom of the order has been a complete black hole, except for the recent surge/improvement from Lee. I’m not one to gripe about a lack of RBI, unless the guy is passive with RiSP. That’s not Buxton.
  20. jkcarew
    Prielipp encouraging again. You can see how he could be much better even…especially learning how to command his changeup. Still really hasn’t pitched much as a pro.
  21. jkcarew
    You would think Buxton would have turned in at least a short list of teams by now as well.
  22. jkcarew
    Please leave the firearms in the safe, Tarheel.
  23. jkcarew
    I’d rather lose by 3 runs with guys that have a future with the club, a chance of getting better, than lose by 1 or 2 with these guys, I’d rather lose by 15 runs with guys that have a future with the club, a chance of getting better, than lose by 7 with these guys,
  24. jkcarew
    2 out and Wallner on deck. The smart play there was for Keaschall to just keep running until someone tags him.
  25. jkcarew
    Jenkins more aggressive lately…hitting the ball harder and turning on pitches. To the point he was over-aggressive in his last two at-bats, chasing and striking out, which is rare for him…and will probably continue to be relatively rare. But you love to see him attacking, two of those doubles were rockets.
