    We shall see. Similar praise was given to Preston Tucker.

    White still has some adjusting to do after MLB pitchers exploited the book after his first week in the big leagues. Will he ever have a week as good as that again?

    There’s still a higher likelihood that all of them are either fill-in or AAAA guys.

    Tbh I don’t even know why Springer tries to steal in the first place. He’s not even good at that. This could have been avoidable.

    Pretty disappointing that he sucks at stealing bases, especially since he was so good at at that through AAA. But yeah, totally avoidable, and stupid decision to even try to steal to begin with.

    George, no more stealing bases, ok?

    You were never good at it in the first place.

    Dark Matter and Super Springer Theory cannot coexist.
