    Is he hitting breaking balls yet?

    Maximum LIPO. Yes, it is “practice”, but if he was hitting .049, everyone would be “See, told ya!”. He has made obvious adjustments, and is hot right now. Hitting is fluid as fuck. 12 weeks of .400, and 12 weeks of .200 gets you .300 (my maffs not strong, but it sounds right)

    That is the game. Riding the highs, and trusting your shit enough to not tweak or rebuild a swing after a few 0’fers…I will be happy with .250, 20 jacks and 2

    20 bags

    I recall him driving a curve to LC, which is a really good sign, a sign that shows an adjustment…you have to “let it travel” (baseball buzzword potd) to do that. Patience is not in abundance for young’ ‘uns…

    I'm a newb and am guaranteed to suck at fantasy baseball, but no.

    When I was 19 or 20 I organized a fantasy baseball league. I recruited a good friend of mine to play. He didn't know shit about baseball so I gave him a book to read called How to Win at Rotisserie Baseball. He read a section where it talked about the key to winning is getting a great hitting catcher because there are so few of them.

    We were doing a draft back then instead of an auction. I had the #1 pick and took Rickey Henderson. Somebody else had the #2 pick and took Jose Canseco. My friend had the #3 pick and took... Mickey Tettleton. Everybody about fell out of their chairs. Based on my memory, Tettleton had hit .220 with 15 homers the year before. Guys started asking my buddy what the hell he was doing. He blamed it on the book I gave him.

    He went on to finish dead last

    Not to one up or distract from fantasy baseball, but I once participated in a fantasy football league where the company troll (he was a fat little stumpy guy who looked and waddled like a troll) used the first overall pick to take Barry Sanders. Only problem was that Sanders had retired the year prior.
