Didnt see it. Watching the ATL/NY game on ESPN gamecast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An above average hitter who can play SS and was a top prospect is not overrated. He's just not a 6 WAR superstar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apparition Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Just now, ramssuperbowl99 said: He good? Not that complicated tbh. I mean, he's obviously good but his power numbers vary wildly from season to season. This year he's already hit 13 but he's also had a full season in which he hit just 7 while batting .320. His G/F and BB/K numbers have been pretty inconsistent as well. If they trended in one direction that'd be one thing, but it seems to change season-by-season. His hot zones have been all over the place as well. Last year he struggled a lot with pitches on the outer third, this year he's been clobbering them and the inner third has given him trouble.

He was also expected to walk a lot more. His walk rate in the minors was about 1 every 10 PA. In the Majors it's been 1 every 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texansfan713 Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Stassi got hit by a pitch on his wrist. If he had to leave the game I would have been pissed. We already without McCann. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
