Don't know how I feel about this. Hasn't done much all year in terms of power.

Well he did set the record for most Homeruns in a derby during his rookie season. And one thing he does really really well is hit 50mph down the middle. Off speed stuff on the outside corner? Not so much.

And that's with Kirk and Vladdy really underperforming, which I don't see how that's the hitting coaches fault. Unless he's been force feeding them extra high calorie foods or something.
Now do BA w/RISP. Or does the Hitting Coach not impact that one?

Again, if they need to keep bringing other guys to talk to our hitters, what's the point of the current guy?

He didn't participate in recent years because he didn't want to mess up his swing. Well his swing is messed up now so maybe this will help.

Somehow he will still find a way to ground out into a double play.

Jays have had 10 ABs thru 3 innings. Giants opener has throw 28 pitches to those 10 batters. Seems bad.

I knew they were in trouble when I heard that it was Winn's first career start. Jays Kryptonite.

Getting thrown out as the tying runner in the ninth is really not good.

Brutal throw by Chapman but Belt still could have had that. Hope it doesn't come back to bite them.

That was a little too close at the end. Thankfully closed it out, eventually.
