Re: the Cole situation, I don’t have particular strong feelings. It’s a classic traditionalist vs new school showboating. I think there’s likely to be internal factions as Cole is a classic traditionalist and you also have Soto who is a huge showboat and they’re both great players. I’m sure Cole will lighten up his stance. To me I get the show business side and respect the simple bat flips we’ve been accustomed to. But the part that annoys me is the look at me skipping and that kinda silliness. In any sport when it gets to the point of WWE I wanna see the guy get punched in the nuts. Bat flips are so simple.
Anyway, normally I’d say the Jays early season should be taken with a grain of salt, but now with a few games in, the batting is looking very similar to last year…anemic. Cause for concern for me.
