TBH, I thought it was no big deal to trade him because I didn't think THAT much of his hitting.  (Reason 78,965 why I am not a GM.)  Maybe he needed to be "rejected" before he could bear down and shine.

Or maybe he just had a few good at bats in the course of a long season?

Wow 😯 

Cursory look appears to have a flatter bat path.

Will never understand why guys think you have to finish your swing above your shoulder to hit home runs.

For me the perfect bat path matches the pitch plane and is usually finishing just below the shoulder.

My opinion is really bad  hitting coaching on the big league club.

The knob of the bat should follow the ball’s path everything else is irrelevant.

[markedman5]

[mtsportsfan]

Yeah , seems he hasn't been driving the ball like he did earlier ! Have to say I haven't seen all his AB's lately .

Tellez would have caught that throw, I think!

[mtsportsfan]

Just can't have plays like that when playing these good teams ! Just adds more to the pitch count

[RobertCrawley]

Miscommunication balk

[yourout]

Not sure what they paid to get him but Seager is having a hell of a year.

[Nola Beery]

Profound observation of the day: 2 runs will not win this game.

[RobertCrawley]

I assume the 3:30 Start time is because Dallas plays tonight. 

[Brewcrew82]

Beautiful from Freddy. Too bad that the 40 pitch inning is going to limit him to 5 here. 

But he's been an ace again in the second half. 

 

[markedman5]

Great job Freddy……40 pitch inning probably means only 5 innings today…..

Yeah. He's approaching his career high in innings so no need to press it. 

[treego14]

Willy Mays Adames!

[Brewcrew82]

You knew that was coming with how Willy's been seeing the ball and making contact the last two games. 

[edfunderburk]

Yeah! Willie is warming up ⚾️

[markedman5]

Love that right center approach from Wily……getting pull happy has lead to most of his problems this season IMO
