Bunting for a base hit on 2-0 pitch ? That’s a bold strategy
We may need to adjust our expectations on Vlad. It's very possible he has an Eric Homser type career and that's still a 3-4 war player. We have these Miguel Cabrera type expectations on the kid and how many players get to that level? Like a few of those type of players in the entire league.
Borucki has been filthy this season.
I have had a soft spot for Griffin. Liked the short time he gets to be coach, and love him as lead assistant.
A huge upgrade over Rex Kalamian for sure.

Or he's 21 and has less than 600 PAs in the bigs and there's still plenty of time to become something close to what everyone expects out of him. It's not like he's up there striking out at a prolific rate or chasing balls like crazy or looking overmatched by MLB pitching. He just needs to fix how he's making contact to get his loft back. That's doable.
It's too early to be passing any real judgement on Vlad yet. Sure we can be concerned the longer this drags on for him, but I'm not ready to pull the chute after not even a year's worth of play out of him.
