5 for 19 since Franchy returned and he got jobbed last night. He’s not a world beater and Schwarber will replace him in the lineup, but he hasn’t been a problem since he’s been back. As a matter of fact he’s one of the only guys on the team working counts, I’ve liked his approach lately
10 for 32 in his last 10 games in the bigs (3 2B, 1 HR)
so to recap:
-Misses almost the entire spring due to Covid
-Has to ramp up at the big league level, struggles mightily. Loses confidence.
-shows a glimmer of hope in the handful of games before he gets sent down with a few doubles and an absolute tank of a homer off of one of the best pitchers in baseball
-mashes in Worcester
-gets recalled and has been looking ok since his return, while playing a decent first base
I think there’s a major leaguer in there. Whether it happens here idk. I honestly doubt it. But he’s a guy that’s missed so much developmental time and was raw to begin… there’s a late bloomer there imo
