Yea that was more Yuli figuring things out and mashing the ball.
Yep...seems his performance against Seattle at MMP was quickly forgotten.

Bregman is back on pace for 100 runs scored and 100 RBI (like last year).
both he and Brantley hit a lull in June. They had to play every day and carry the load offensively. Should have big second halves with the lineup almost at full strength
I don't want anyone banned. That was his offer for a bet.Quote:
IDK, but why would you want someone on this thread to be banned because they had a different opinion of a player than you.

I hear Beltran went down there and told him to look at the ball with both eyes.
Speaking of that helpful hint, iant that something that a major leaguer would already be doing and not a hot tip to get multiple years in to your championship winning career?
Technically he's now keeping his eyes on the ball and not just eyethird coast.. said:
Keep your eye on the ball seems like basic level stuff that shouldn't require hall of fame major leaguer coaching though. I mean come on...
I don't know what's so hard to believe. Sometimes you don't even realize what you're not doing correctly. You get in a groove (or in a rut).third coast.. said:
You know what I meant

hold on, now some guy named Felix Pena is starting for the Angels tonight. Heaney moved back to Saturday

yes, as we've discussed...the Astros will need to make a serious run at resigning Cole.
unless Luhnow can get Syndergaard (or equivalent) at the deadline

I was the poster who has been slightly disapointed with Bregman this year. I didn't say he's been bad, he's just not having the same year as last year.
And I'm not talking about BA, like you claim. Bregman has never hit much higher than .280 so I could care less. I'm talking about his impact this season. Last season he was our best player because he always seemed to come through in the clutch in big moments. His numbers this year don't reflect that. In fact, the show that most of his damage comes in the less meaningful portions of games, rather than late, with men on, or other clutch times.
Don't just be fooled because he still has a high OPS, that he's having the exact same year. Joey Gallo posted a high OPS for years and nobody wanted him up in a key situation.
Edit: nobody has bothered to actually look at his stats in clutch moments. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.

He was elite last year and just above average this year. Seems like a smallish sample to pick from. He hasn't had the protection he had last year either. A hot July and he'll be clutch again. I wouldn't put too much stock into it.
