Soto has actually been pretty good and driving in some runs lately.

 

[Hambombs]

I hate MY seriously.. Profar would probably put up better at bats. Heck even our whole bench can put up a better at bat

Your dislike for Soto has clouded your judgment a bit. That was actually a really good hard-fought at-bat. The ump hosed him twice, first on the 3-1 pitch when the replay appeared to show he checked his swing, then on the final 3-2 pitch which had been called a ball for most of the game and the pitch tracker showed barely touched the outside of the black. I'd rather see an at-bat and subsequent out like that any day than watching Josh and his careless swing at the first pitch no matter what approach. Soto just doesn't have Josh's freakish athletic ability, but he along with most of the rest of the team do have better approaches and discipline at the plate. He's an 8-hole hitter who won't ever be better than a .250-.260 hitter. He's light years better than that spare Torrealba.

Sure wish Murphy hit behind Cruz.

 

[Windingmywatch]

I mean right behind rather than on the other side of black hole in the batting order.

Just noticed that Kinsler and Young have the same BA (.266) ... 4 points better than Cruz. And Moreland is 1 point behind Hamilton. Hmmph. Strange looking batting order if are just looking at it without knowing all the leadership things going on.

possibly so, soto's at bats in clutch situations where he strikes out just really stand out to me. he is far better than torrealba for sure and he has been hitting the ball well of late. there just havent really been any clutch hits that really stand out to me. i could be wrong though.......

you should have seen my rant on josh earlier in this thread. whenever he swung and missed in his 2nd at bat at strike 2 he started laughing. and then when he swung at the ball at his eyes and went back to the duggout and was giggling like a little girl and goofing off really pissed me off. it just comes off as very disrespectful to his teammates and his fans and gives the impression that he doesnt care about this team. maybe im overrexagerrating this a bit, and if so, im sorry.
