gehringer_2 Posted June 12 Author Share Posted June 12 He seems to hitting 'backwards' doesn't he? Looking for breaking balls and taking FBs. You'd think it shouldn't take long for even AAA pitchers to put a stop to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLiveMaroth Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Franyerber shows up on Baseball America https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/analyzing-10-standout-complex-league-prospects-so-far-in-2024/ Franyerber Montilla, SS, Tigers (175 wRC+) One of the early favorites of RoboScout, Montilla has been a standout for the Tigers’ FCL squad. In 22 games, Montilla is hitting .346/.481/.556 with just as many walks as strikeouts and underlying data very much backs his performance. Montilla shows strong plate skills with a 13.4% in-zone whiff rate and a low chase rate of 16.7%. On the face of it, those numbers showcase excellent bat-to-ball and pitch recognition skills. Like with Sanchez, Montilla’s 90th percentile EV (102.7 mph) is above-average for his age, and he shows the ability to consistently elevate the ball with a 58% fly+line drive rate. Montilla shows a well-rounded profile at the plate and is one of the more exciting players in complex play. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1984Echoes Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I'll give another reason to kick upstairs to West Michigan Clark, Briceno & McGonigle: Nearly the entire week of games is postponed due to afternoon showers. How many Lakeland games get postponed due to weather? Especially around the summer "monsoon" months? I am... annoyed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tork needs to do more than just "get a little better". Reading between the lines some, I get the feeling that he believes whatever approach he brought with him to the majors is the approach he's going to stick with. And maybe that's what he needs to do. Maybe he's a guy the coaches need to leave alone instead of working with him to tweak whatever. Who knows. 🤷🏻♀️ Edited June 14 by chasfh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows. 🤷🏻♀️ I don't know what he thinks constitutes having confidence in a 'swing' or 'approach', those words can mean different things, but objectively, for Tork to hit in the majors he has to hit more strikes and take fewer strikes. He will never be a good hitter in the majors constantly down in the count. It's both as simple to say and maybe as complex to do as just that. Yes, you absolutely have to be willing to give a pitcher his due when he makes a perfect pitch, but the distance between too many pitches Tork takes and perfect is way too big and needs to close.
