He can hardly stand. I can't imagine he can continue. I'm sure he will want to try but this won't get any better.

That would take away the only reason left to watch this garbage team continually go down early and hack their way to nothing for the remainder of the game.

Nope. He gave it a good try but that little jog was enough to change his mind.

I switched back just as Alvarez launched that one. Stayed away a whole 10 minutes.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

Some of you guys need to get your ****-colored classes off. You sell when you look at your team and realize you can't win now or for the next few years and need to rebuild.

26-34 with 102 games to play isn't that scenario.

I wouldn't sell right now, I just wouldn't be buying right now either. When we are 8 games back July 31 I definitely would.

Can anybody pinpoint when our plate approach became super aggressive, first-pitch swing heavy? Maybe I'm misremembering, but 2017-2019 we worked counts, ran SP PC early to get to the BP, and usually did the most significant damage against those weaker BP arms.

Altuve I can live with being that way, but Jake Meyers? Really? Why are you swinging first pitch?

Farmer's gonna come along and point out his OPS on first pitch swings, which is fine WHEN IT WORKS OUT. When it doesn't, not only are you giving away the out but the opportunity to make the pitcher work harder longer.
WIth no data to back it up, it happened slowly as guys like Correa, Gurriel, and Brantley left. Correa struck out 100 times a year but he wasn't chasing a lot of BS. Yuli, even when he royally sucked in '22, only struck out 73 times in 584 plate appearances, and Brantley hardly struck out at all.

Those 3 guys always seemed to be of the opinion that they were going to get comfortable at the plate and be there a while until they got a pitch to hit. Like there was no big hurry to jump on a pitch unless they really liked it, because you feel like the longer the AB goes on, the more likely the pitcher is to eff up.

Maybe it's the sped-up part of the game that is making guys anxious now, but we don't have very many hitters who seem to really understand that most pitchers are going to throw you a bunch of garbage to see what you'll swing at, and until you can prove you're going to consistently take a walk, they won't throw you hittable pitches late in the count.
