re: Tommy Tanks getting the call up

Never forget that walk off. Was in a restaurant in McAllen, Texas and people thought I was having a medical episode!

When Warren hit his in '96, I broke my left middle finger on my 8' ceiling!

When Cresse hit his, I fell out of my dad's recliner.

Legends all!

Go get'em TT!

Dylan has been horrible over the two weeks prior the the All-Star game, which is disappointing because he had put together a decent stretch before that. Now he is at .211/.270/.343 which is below his career averages

No it’s not. It’s exactly his “career” average. Quotes cause there’s still time to change course but it’s getting close to being who he is. He’s a career .211/.278/.349 hitter. Sucks to see it but it is what it is at this point

If you are looking for a glass half full scenario, up until a week and half ago, he had spent the last month raising his average from .188 to .240, but that has dipped in his last 5-6 games.

Some good news is he drew 1 walk in August, 3 in June, and has 6 half way through July. Perhaps he’s getting a little more patient.

I’m curious to see how he finishes this back half of the season and rooting for him.

And back to this thread, Tommy has been mashing in AA and AAA , so hoping he continues with the call up. He had an amazing spring training, so great to see him continuing to progress.

Congrats to Tommy Tanks!

5-6 games you need to look further back than that, over his last 10 dude is 5 for his last 36 with 10 strikeouts

Gage Jump is starting this game as well for the A's. Id bet Jay will be in attendance.

Dylan was hitting.230+ only two weeks ago, more of what he was would see him closer to what was expected
