Hays has been swinging it good but not the guy I want up there with a man on 3rd and less than 2 outs.

Aside from the 3 HR, offense didn't look great last night, either. Don't want to rely on the HR.

Be huge if Mountcastle can revert back towards 2021.

Feel like Santander has had some good, deep ABs only to strikeout on pitches outside the zone.

Wow. McDonald pointing out how much Rodriguez missed on the chase pitch (over the heart of the plate) does not bode well for this kid's future unless he can figure it out.

Imagine if Grayson was able to put away every guy he had 0-2 or 1-2. Just wild enough inside the zone.

In his second career start?

I think the culture is slowly but surely changing with the young guys that have come up with a keen sense of the strikezone but there's still a handful in this lineup that swing at frickin everything including Santander flailing away at a pitch up near his head. Infuriating to watch.

All six hits on 0-2 and 1-2 counts, and he missed on that 0-2 chase pitch by about two feet (over the heart of the plate). Hopefully he figures it out, but that's just a simple command he ignored.

Seems pretty common for command to be the last thing pitchers really figure out. Don’t think it’s much of a long term concern at this point…

Yeah. The hype is real man. Control is so important and he has that. Its not like the command is bad either. Its just not quite where it needs to be

Two times we've had a runner on 2rd and less than 2 outs and nothing. Bad go by McCann there.
