That dude is a freak. Should be fun to watch as he develops.

I guess he got all of that one.

He’s a 6’5” switch-hitting SS (playing 3B with the big club) who is still pretty skinny and hasn’t really developed his “grown man strength” yet. His exit velos are insane. Has the hardest hit ball in professional baseball this year at 118.8 mph.

The Yankees could make this guy baseballs first billion dollar contract. Book it, 15 years 1 billion

I think I heard the long haired guy on Speak say he put money on his first big league at bat being a HR today
It was a double yesterday but damn if he wasn’t close

What’s wild is that 53 year old Ken Griffey, Jr probably gets paid more by the reds

its going to come down to the whiffs and discipline
an over 13% whiff rate is really high

I thought swinging strike percentage was like, around 9/10%
Forgive me. Either way that's the concern. Massive power and dynamic speed. He also strikes out a whole lot

Oh, I was thinking overall strikeout rate. My bad.

He likes to admire his HR’s. Hope he enjoys chin music.

He was insanely fun to watch with the Bats. It was only a matter of time before he got called up. Glad to see it. He seems like a decent guy.

Is he related to Ernesto from Santa Cecilia?

Hes already setting club records in the first two games he's played. Reds walked off the Dodgers tonight for the second night in a row. This Reds team is F-U-N.
