Has anyone asked this question? How much is Vogelbach worth per pound?


And Off Topic, but here's the perfect answer to Dee Dee's "White Privilege."

Ground or just trimmed?

Seems like Toronto has a history of getting a year or so of offense from a 1st Baseman that couldn't get out of his own way here.

Yep. After a quick discussion with Justin Smoak he will become All-Star worthy with the U.S. Bluejays.

beyond the box score look at it, interesting what they say about his hitting

What’s strange about Vogelbach’s sudden fall isn’t that his discipline got worse (it didn’t) or that he was getting unlucky (he wasn’t). Vogelbach just stopped hitting the ball hard. In 2020, Vogelbach has posted an average exit velocity of just 85.6 mph which puts him in the 11th percentile of major leaguers. Vogelbach has struggled to be even league average in this category since last August.

The silver lining is that Vogelbach still excels at drawing walks. His 17.2 percent walk rate isn’t far off from what he did all of last year (16.5 percent). Vogelbach still does a good job of laying off pitches outside of the strike zone, but with the way Vogelbach is swinging the bat, pitchers don’t need to get him to chase to get him out. They can simply challenge him in the strike zone.

Jack Cust excelled at taking walks right up to the bitter end.

You can't build your game around patience or you get Vogelbach'd.

The same will happen to White if he tries to draw walks instead of punish pitchers.

There is something to be said about having a bat in your hands and doing some damage. I once went after a neighbor's car with a bat but decided to take a walk.

Because you forgot your lines?
