    Well, I could trust @nook’s observations on his bat speed, the type of pitches he is fouling, his swing path, and insider accounts.

    Or I could trust your superficial analysis and homophobic slurs.

    It’s a tough call, but I’ll keep reading the guy who knows what he is talking about, and put you on ignore.

    BTW, here's Tucker vs Abreu vs Bregman

    last 20:
    .219 .272 .329 .600
    .173 .235 .213 .448
    .189 .302 .324 .627

    last 10:
    .222 .256 .361 .618
    .143 .250 .200 .450
    .158 .238 .290 .528

    This is not good.

    I'm sorry.

    Calling a baseball player or umpire or anyone on the field or dugout a "********er" is totally allowed and has no other connotations.

    It's just how it is, and how it always be. It's like Aussies saying "hey, ya cunt"

    When Montero was warming up. I had an irresistible urge to go to bed. I hoped the result would be different when I woke up and read about it, but NOOOOOO!!!!

    But it's too early to pronounce any player toast for this season yet, much less for his career.

    Before the All Star break, you manage the season, not the game. Unless you're playing an upstart like Toronto, Tampa Bay or Atlanta.

    @Nook is the man on here, I ain't disagreeing with that. What I am saying is, I see a player that's old as **** and in a decline. I hope I am proved wrong my fellow brother in Christ. Not yet, though.

    I just disagree about when the decline hits and how sudden it hits. When a player is old, he gets a shorter leash, but he still gets a chance to prove it's only a slump. I wasn't even upset about Yuli last year until the All Star break.

    Yeah, and I mean it IS still early. But if he's this turrrrrible around the All-Star break, then I'll be a lot more worried. I'm worried, but not overly worried. I'm more concerned about Bregman and Tucker going MIA for the last 2-3 weeks. And then concerned about Bregman too.

    Well, all season in 2020 was 60 games so Abreu has about 20 games to get his **** together.
