JK in Tacoma. 2022 vs 2021

Evidently fast balls are the main ingredient in high school and A thru AA and more evidence to support the simple fact that he can’t pick up the spin and gets fooled day after day. You can adjust and start taking dozens of walks or flame out like Jarred the Flammer


Time will tell. It isn’t looking promising that much is obvious

Not here but on Twitter it is stunning to me how many people still think he is going to be a great hitter. Just complete dismissal of obvious evidence to the contrary.

I get the average baseball fan But wtf Jerry. It really is starting to scare me how dillusional that snake is
Shouldn’t surprise me but it does

I'd trade him and Hancock for Reynolds in a heartbeat.

That would work

I have been reading up on his early scouting reports and was surprised to learn that he didn’t play high school baseball.

A lot of parallels between Jo Adell and JK. Adell, also former top 5 prospect and also back in the minors.

I don't get the calls on twitter to bring him back up. I haven't given up on him like some of you, but he needs time and AB's.

It is understandable given the trash we have in the lineup but I am with you. Sept at the earliest an only if he does what he needs to do.

My excitement that we finally have an Saturday afternoon home game has dissipated. If we lose this 1-0 I made die of fermented potato juice poisoning tonight.

You guys are hilarious. You all sit there and bash Kelenic for a 25% k-rate when he's bashing a .900 ops while J-Rod has a 30% k-rate, do you know that? 91K in 297AB. Yeah. The hypocrisy on here is unreal.

Strikeouts suck, but they aren't the killer that they are sometimes thought of. JRod has shown that you can put up healthy WAR and wRC+ figures w/ a high K-rate. Kelenic has potential to offer high slug percentage than Julio. I really do believe that.
