Snow Plow, Griffin is for real. I can tell he has his head on straight because of the way his teammates react to him. Hope he stays that way. Bobby Witt Jr., right now, is a better fielder, but Witt and Griffin, hopefully, will be around a long time.

Kyle is now up to 360 for his career. He could realistically reach 400 this season at the age of 33. Good shot for 500 if he stays healthy.

He gets all of us pumped with his monster homeruns. Health is the key for both Kyle Schwarber and Mike Trout! Trout stared the
season off on fire but has been stuck at 11 homers for quite a while now. Hope he gets it going!

Trout has passed negro Bob Gibson on the all time WAR list:

44.Wade Boggs+ (18)91.4107402.1L
45.Steve Carlton+ (24)90.218815217.2L
46.Gaylord Perry+ (22)90.012205350.0R
47.Mike Trout (16, 34)89.67437R
48.Bob Gibson+ (17)89.214893884.1R
49.George Brett+ (21)88.711625L
50.Tim Keefe+ (14)86.922625049.2R

What speaks to the greatness and what could've been is the number of plate appearances Trout has compared to HOF's around him. (Not counting the pitchers as WAR is figured differently for them. Notice George Brett's number of PA. 11,625 to get to 88.7 WAR. Trout has only 7437 to reach 89.6 WAR. Carl Yaztrzemmski needed almost twice as many PA's, to reach 96.5 WAR! 13,992.
Pete Rose needed 15,890 to reach 79.6 WAR!
Being relatively conservative, I would say if Trout had not missed the equivalent of 3.5 seasons, he would've mostly likely already passed the likes of number 21. Mickey Mantle, 110 WAR, 19. Rickey Henderson, 111.2, and 18. Lou Gehrig, 113.7 with 4- 5 seasons left to catch Williams, Musial, and maybe Cobb.
Unfortunately, we'll never know. Still for me, Trout is the greatest MLB player I've ever seen...or at, least for 6-8 year span.
Thanks for posting KS5000!
 
The Miz, as he’s called, is a blossoming star. The media is hyping Ohtani for NL Cy Young but my money is on Jacob, assuming he stays healthy.

I found the first paragraph the most damning about the state of baseball. Lowest batting average since 1968 and lowest home runs per game since 2015.

Baseball “purists” should be using this to push back on the analytics crowd which has subverted and taken over baseball making it a much different game than it was. It’s also interesting that 5/7 are blacktino or black. Perhaps the third world takeover of baseball isn’t actually allowing the best players into the game.

But walks are way up, thanks to the new ABS. Hitters being more selective thanks to the tighter strike zones, but not translating to hits when they do swing. So overall the game becomes more boring, and likely slightly longer again with the walks.
 
Cucked White loser placed on leave after being caught on camera admitting to his bigotry against a White Christian pitcher on the Nationals. Of course "placed on leave" might just mean a short paid vacation:

Washington Nationals Director of Community Relations Placed on Leave After Admitting on Hidden Camera to Discriminating Against Christian Pitcher * The Gateway Pundit * by Cristina Laila

The O’Keefe Media Group on Tuesday released an undercover video of Washington Nationals Director of Community Relations, Sean Hudson, admitting to religious discrimination against Christian pitcher Trevor Williams.

Pretty cool clip here. Kevin McGonigle with the 2-out walk off RBI single. He had a home run earlier in the game as well.

 
Two young redwoods with star potential have gotten recent call-ups. 6’-7” Spencer Jones with the Yankees (can play CF or the corners) and Bryce Eldridge the 6’-7” 1B with the Giants. Jones had his first career homer yesterday. A bomb to center:



Eldridge had his 3rd of the year and his young career:



Playing this full season at only 21 years old, I put Bryce in the category with Nick Kurtz as young sluggers to watch. Those guys are the type that can challenge 500+ career homers, as they have easy 35-40 homerun power so they can reach the mark in 12-14 seasons.

And that includes his propensity for long slumps… he has 2-3 of them every year and it hurts him.
 
It’s as if Bryce Eldridge needed to validate my morning post by hitting a walkoff grand slam this afternoon! This young man has star potential as I’ve said. His swing and power come easy.

Awesome! Had no clue about about Eldridge. Thanks for putting the CF spotlight on him.
