It wasn't the mustache apparently

Why is Hiura still on this roster.

[Simba2020]

Nice to see you again Keston, I missed you so much over the break.

[Underachiever]

Have a seat, Keston.

[homer]

JBJ is just lost man. Feels like when Cain comes back it’s best for him to be a defensive substitute only.

 

I mean I get it but weird post after he hits a 105mph missile to center.

 

It’s exactly the time to post it. He can do no right at the moment. Even when he hits the ball hard it finds it’s way to a glove.

 

He was unlucky. Not lost.

[adambr2]

Hiura is just a wasted roster spot.

[Simba2020]

Keston would be the first guy I offer up in a trade. Any trade.

[PinaMadness]

I see the four days off hasn't helped Hiura one iota.

[jason21nl]

Kestons rebound is over and he needs to go away.

One of the biggest issues I have coaching 12 year olds is getting them to lay off high out-of-zone fastballs. They do eventually get it for the most part, though. The fact that a 24-year-old former 1st round hitting prodigy cannot get that is simply disgusting.

If I would have told you that both Hiura and Yelich would struggle mightily compared to prior years, and this team would be in first place by at 3 least games, would you believe me?

So true man. It really is shameful.

He doesn't hit the fastballs in the strikezone either.

Of course not. But they won’t have a lead for much longer if they don’t figure it out quickly

You say unlocky, I say lost. Do you bro.

Said this months ago. Take what you can get and run. He's a bust. I know you're selling low and it sucks but the alternative is suffering through hundreds more ABs just like that which hurt the team now and probably getting nothing out of it. Someone out there will believe they can fix him and give us something.

Follow it up with Narvaez and Avi Garcia being the top offensive threats, and most would thinks its Bizzaro World.

[Bulldogboy]

Don't the Brewers have a film room?? Do they not have film of Paul Molitor?? Quiet. No leg kick. Short stride throw the hands. Worked for him. Leg kicks are not a good look.

[jason21nl]

It’s a strike. Swing the bat.

[adambr2]

Yelich is on pace for...(checks notes ) 10 HR. For the entire season.

[homer]

wow. he smoked that.

[brewers888]

Brewers have nothing to gain trading Hiura for a middle reliever. If they can get something good take it or else send him to AAA and hope the hitting coach there can figure it out since Haines is clueless.

[rickh150]

Adames!

[Bulldogboy]

The fact that Yelich just tried to walk again on a fastball right in the zone tells you he doesn't believe he's good anymore.

Works for Adames. I would agree that Keston should drop it as it does not work for him, at this point anyway.
