Where does Bally get all this slurping of Ibanez talking like he's the second coming of Miggy? I dont get it...maybe I'm just out of the Ibanez being freaking awesome loop 🤷♂️
I was thinking to myself that Greene and maybe Canha would be the only bats that could play for the Yankees...whilst the Yankees 5-9 hitters would hit in the top 4 of this Tigers lineup...only hope Scott Harris noticed this chestnut as well.
Perhaps AJ's arguably not doing enough to maximize the lineup, but any givem game he's got at least 3-4 blackhole batters that he has to strategize for...only so much a chef can cook with when 1/3 of his ingedients are poop.
The ONLY reason he's here is because he's a 1OA pick...and that's also the reason he's not in Toledo; imo, Harris and AJ both know if he goes to Toledo he'll suck there as well and his 1OA/mlb career will be officially bricked. I mean, what do they do with him if he goes to Toledo and has a negatibe WAR there?! He'd be done-zo.
Not sure why Bally's been over hyping the return of Ibanez like he's the second coming of baseball jeebus...but that'a just Bally being Bally I reckon.
Yep, havent been a fan of Riley hitting leadoff precisely because he is the best hitter. Maybe when Urshela comes back, he can hit leadoff, Canha 2nd, then Riley 3rd, that just seems optimal for him to have a better chance at driving in runs.
