RatkoVarda Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 AJ likes Davis “He’s right in the middle of it,” Hinch said. “His at-bat quality in the minors has been very good. He hasn’t gotten the opportunity in the big leagues. We want to make sure he gets a look at a number of different spots. With all the left-handed outfielders we have, he’s a perfect complement if he can continue to put up really good at-bats.” Quote
Tigermojo Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 He's 30, with zero success in the Majors. I think Hinch is just being nice. Quote
mtutiger Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) J. Davis bats RH, and depth wise they are light in that category in terms of true outfielders. Don't think he makes the team, but I get why he's there and why they want him in the org at least. Edited March 9, 2023 by mtutiger Quote

Adding to your point, Davis is also a plus defensive OF. Baddoo and Carpenter are not. Doesn't mean that he's a better option than either overall, but Davis has at least one tool that they do not as well. Quote
mtutiger Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Lorenzen has to be the most ripped Tigers starter in history lol Quote

gehringer_2 Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 odd box so far - 2 runs in, one for each team, no RBI yet - the steal and a run in on a DP. Quote

gehringer_2 Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Nice to see Brieske have a better outing. Maton looking like the real deal - and Jake (fingers crossed). Quote
mtutiger Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 Pirate outfielders continue to not cover themselves with glory in this game.... yikes Quote
