MLB Daily Thread: 06-07-17: Scooter hits 4 HRS & Royals end Stros win streak

[AlpacaWine]

What ended fast? Struggling a bit in June but he hit .293 in May with 3 HR & 10 RBI.

If he hit last year like he's hit this year, nobody would even know his name.

He may very well be a serviceable major league catcher. But the point is, he's not Albert Pujols, he's Miguel Montero.

 

[Rock Strongo]

I don't watch much Yankee baseball, but Sanchez looked lost last night.

And Aaron Judge has a very long swing. Not sustainable.

yup. long swings dont last. ask richie sexson. he fell off a table when that long swing couldnt keep up.

Judge reminded me of Russell Branyan. Guy could hit the ball to the moon when he squared one up.

LMAO

One win

Out of the woodwork

He's more like Albert Pujols if you watch him swing

Andrew Beneditti just batted .120 for a month before 2 good days, how come i get a feeling you dont think he is about to become a horrible player?

Sanchez had better series in Toronto a week ago than Montero had a career

I don't think that Andrew Benintendi has a ceiling of Albert Pujols either.

I actually think his ceiling is that of a Dustin Pedroia with a bit more power.

Rock on anything to do with the Yankees:

Funny guy

He was benched for Chris Young about 8 times in the last month

But the AL MVP frontrunner is the guy that wont last

Mike Pelphrey too

Mike Pelphrey gets bombed every time he gets the mound, for about the past 3 seasons, I cant believe he still gets the ball

Its crazy how desperate some of these teams are

Jason Grilli came in against the Yankees in the 8th on Saturday, and faced 5 batters

4 of them hit Homeruns

LMAO

Huh?

MVP frontrunner talk on June 7th?

 

[AlpacaWine]

Benintendi is second on the team in plate appearances. But he was benched eight times?

This Dirt fella has a real knack for just making up his own history.

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Huh?

Scouts, Analysts, "Experts", Ex Players, all dis-agree with your assessment of Judge

His pitch recognition and plate discipline is off the charts, and its why his OBP is just silly

Ill go with those other guys, instead of your wishful thinking
