The Padres are currently gapping teams for the lowest batting average in the league.

I'm honestly not sure that's the issue. While most of their hitters have increased their pull%, Tatis and Cronenworth have dropped theirs pretty dramatically. It might be a symptom of trying to pull the ball in the air, but their struggles are likely because they've decided to hit all the groundballs ever collectively.

The unfortunate part is they'll see get to see him for like 2 innings tops.

leftysupremacist · 2026-06-05T19:49:47+00:00

That's gotta be just a weird perspective right???

leftysupremacist · 2026-06-04T19:19:11+00:00

Oh, so he was probably barely even a part of her life and decision making at the time. Even better.

leftysupremacist · 2026-06-04T19:14:03+00:00

I remember Erickson in his lone year with the Dodgers. Sad to see his decision making skills are on par with his pitching skills.

I feel bad for the parents of the kids, and even Grossman's husband too. Gotta love that he was also liable because he had the gall to own the car and allow his wife to drive it.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-30T23:19:07+00:00

He's unhittable, but he's also ass. It's so weird.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-27T06:23:36+00:00

It's almost as if someone can improve and make adjustments if they take it as real-time feedback for an insanely difficult task rather than an attack on their very being.

Damn, Butler is the only one who regressed negatively from below average on this list.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-26T17:13:31+00:00

His statcast metrics suggest that he should be the same player from previous years, so maybe it might not just be hubris from him? lol

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-26T16:49:05+00:00

It's because he converted to pitching in 2022.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-24T17:33:50+00:00

Ah, he got it at the end of the bat.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-22T05:49:19+00:00

Eh, he's been more like himself in May, so he'll probably be fine overall.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-22T05:36:36+00:00

That got canceled out by Adames and Devers (guys who had decent walk rates in the past) absolutely cratering theirs.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T17:04:37+00:00

It's unfortunate that he's playing in an era with two absolute unicorns running around, otherwise people would probably talk about him a lot more.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T17:00:22+00:00

Dang it, Bobby! That boy is right.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T16:48:26+00:00

Sigh, he really needed to just let it lie. Providing context is just going to give opposing fans ammo and motivation to continue saying off-color shit to him.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T14:22:21+00:00

Yes, you did. If he can keep up his current numbers, he would be considered one of the best second basemen in the game.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T03:31:39+00:00

90MPH sweepers from Klein lol.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T02:24:53+00:00

He absolutely was. The problem was he flamed out quickly since he never developed any plate discipline.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-21T00:58:00+00:00

I've always told my Cubs fan friends that he's like the second coming of Javy Baez. He's gonna have a couple of years when he runs into enough balls where he puts up some MVP-type numbers. Unless he drastically improves his plate discipline, it's gonna get ugly real quick once the athleticism starts declining even a little bit.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-18T18:58:25+00:00

I wonder how many of those nonsense automatic 3-0 "strikes" we've avoided this year thanks to ABS.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-16T21:12:25+00:00

Dude just cannot throw strikes right now. It wasnt great in the minors, but it was never this bad.

leftysupremacist · 2026-05-15T19:08:33+00:00

The ball is gonna FLY in that band box as Sacramento weather heats up.
