No. Even she thinks this thread is regarded.

I think that’s a bad take. What is your reasoning?

He’s not, but he is awesome

Crews never had those wild chase swings that Tanks has

I'm glad we have both. If one's in a slump the other doesn't seem to be. Why are we pitting them against each other?

Crews is one of the smartest batters I have ever seen. He has a great eye at the plate and is very patient. White is a great batter but does not have the patience. He is always swinging for the fences.

OK, and when Crews was in his slump Tommy seemed to be hotter than he was at any point in the season. When they're both on? Forget about it. It's a privilege to have those 2 back to back in the lineup.

Tommy could use some more patience and discipline at the plate so I'd give the edge to Crews as well. But I'm glad we have both

If Crews swung like White every at bat, he too would be batting .375 with at least 22 HRs.:

Explain why.


If you compare their body of work for their respective first two seasons then Tanks is probably a little ahead in hitting.

But in every other facet of the game Crews is way out front.

Better hitter, possibly.

Better player, no

No man lol. Tommy would tell you this straight up. There is not a better hitter in college baseball than Crews — he can do a lot of things very well at the plate. One of the best hitters we’ve ever had + he very well could have gotten 30 out if he were hitting cleanup.

This is a good point.

This may be a fair argument, though I'm not sure who would even agree with that
