    Worst case scenario it doesn’t sound like he’s going very deep regardless.

    Can't have poor BABIP luck if you just never allow them to put the ball in play.

    It’s with runners in scoring position that they are referring to

    Killer B's turning into Maldonado didn't help either.

    it's not bad but where he's batting, the team needs him to be better.

    0.253 with RiSP vs Yainer's 0.337
    0.283 with Runners on bases vs Yainer's 0.316
    0.167 (yikes) with bases loaded vs Yainer's 0.267

    Yordan's is somewhat struggling to drive guys in which is why Yainer is now tied with the leading leader for team's RBI.

    He's still good, but the team desperately needs him to drive in runs when you have Tucker out.

    Good for him. Fans are owed no information except from the media, and I'm glad he's not interested in telling the world the FO's "inside baseball" thoughts and plans.

    Once again, might want to go actually check the stats first. Before the AB today his OPS with RISP is .867 and with just men on its .907.

    His walk rate is way higher with RISP so that tells me pitchers are being careful pitching around the edges. Bregman was so bad behind him earlier in the year, guys were willing to walk him or make perfect pitches. Yainer has been good but having Tucker behind him should help.

    in terms of trades and transactions, i don't think he's lying.

    in terms of injuries.......yea, he's not really honest about that.

    You literally just said they should have him bunting when men are on base when he has a .907 OPS, which is great.

    If an .867 OPS is terrible then I have some news for people…

    There's a difference between "withholding inside information", vs, flat-out lying.
