How many Arizona games did you watch last year? Was Bingham losing them games?


Probably between 20-30. Idk if he lost them games but his play definitely cost them runs.

He also has a weak arm, which is why Jay refuses to put him in RF

So which is it. Do you think Kling should play or not?

Nice. Do you watch 50% of every teams games or is there a reason that you chose to watch that many Arizona games?

Catchers typically aren’t offensive stars. They are they for defensive purposes. They touch the ball for every pitch not hit.

Again, Kling was not just brought here because he was a defensive gem. He was supposed to be a 5 tool player. Power, average, speed, arm, and glove. How’s the power and average working for him?

You do understand that pretty much every baseball team values glove over bat when it comes to CF, right?

You do understand that no mlb centerfielder is batting .220 and leading their team in strikeouts

He hasn’t been playing very good. He was supposed to be great, he’s not. He doesn’t need to be in the lineup. What so hard to understand?

Oh, excuse me for not stating in the last 15 years of baseball. Find a centerfielder that batted .220 and was the team leader in strikeouts

It’s hard to talk logic & ball when fans are insulted that a player doesn’t live up to high school hype. As if he still cannot provide value lol. It’s so stupid

Striking out 2 out of every 3 abs does not provide value.

I already asked you why you think he can’t do that and you didn’t answer. He’s done it before.

Him doing it before doesn’t mean he was good at it. Mason Katz has also started in CF before. Bingham is a below average center fielder

Kling entered today with a higher OBP than Bingham.

There's value in that, especially when you factor in that Kling is at the bottom of the order and plays elite defense.
