It’s an absolute sin that the staff was saying Kling is the next Dylan Crews.

Great speed and good outfielder. But damn I feel more confident when Milazzo is at the plate than when he is.

Dude is going to be a stud down the road. He’s got all the attributes for a star but is struggling.

Also link to him being the next Dylan crews? They were probably just praising his ceiling which is clearly there

If he would just swing. He has the power but he looks at too many pitches. He will improve. He has all the tools.

It’s hard to decipher who looks worse at the plate right now between Jones and Kling. It would be easy to also mention Dugas and Thompson. All of those players have regressed considerably since the beginning of the year

Dylan Crews don’t even look like the next Dylan Crews right now.

That big kid Frey with the smooth swing is going to be a stud.

Jay Johnson has said on multiple occasions that Kling is the closest thing they have to Dylan Crews on this team. By that he means he has all the potential to be a 5 tool star. Of course, the rant idiots now expect him to be on the same level as crews is today, and he's obviously not there yet. He will be great in purple and gold though.

Dylan has possibly checked out. It happens every season to high draft picks as they near the MLB draft. Can’t blame him, he’s about to be a multi millionaire in a month or so. Many college kids lose their focus this time of year. Skenes has looked human in his last few starts as well. Maybe they can re-focus for the stretch run, but you just never know. All they hear and read about is the Pirates & Nationals. frick MLB!

Add Bear swinging at balls in the dirt to that list.

ETA: I misread your statement. The beer has caught up. I was thinking JT.

Paxton Kling will be a key element to our success in the next two seasons.

No fricking way this is true.

Crews was much better as a freshman and that is without question.

I’m sure he’s talented but it’s painful to watch him squat and stare at FBs down the cock until he’s down 0-2/1-2 and then chase something in the LH batter’s box. To call his current approach awful is an understatement.

Hopefully he can get right in the summer/fall. We’ll definitely need him to step up.

This happens every year on here in the post season. The baseball posters of the rant are already pretty dumb. When the postseason comes around a bunch more retards start paying attention and the stupid posts multiply

I have never seen or heard one person on staff say Kling is the next Dylan Crews.

Eh he’s been pretty gu king good.

2 over 7 vs UGA
1 over 7 Vs Miss State
0 over 7.2 vs Auburn
12+ SO I’m all of them.

He’s a boss. This was by far his worst outing since South Carolina.

I thought he would be better at this point. He has battled through injuries and also have to remember he came from Pennsylvania. They aren’t really known for baseball. He may have a little more adjusting to get through. All the tools are there for sure though.

Klinger simply needs experience.
