Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Luke Jackson is coming in.

LOL.

What's so funny? He's merely serviceable in the field, and atrocious at the plate.

ETA: We should trade him while he still has some value.

Don’t think Riley is here for the long haul. Terrible approach, limited defensively, below average bat to ball skills. Goes a long way when he connects though.

I love how people make declarations(either way)about a player when they haven't even played a full season's worth of games yet, as is Riley's case.

What are the winning Powerball #'s gonna be there, Miss Cleo?

Guess you didn't watch the Philly series. He was making plays all over the place. W/really good range to boot.

Yeah, you’re probably right.

Since June 5, 2019:

.213/.272/.359

63 wRC+

-1.0 fWAR in 94 games and 345 PA

Maybe he can get to replacement level over his last 100 games if he goes on one of his 2 week heaters.

Again, not a full season's worth of games.

You expect everyone to come in and be Acuna or Freeman. Newsflash. baw, they are the exception. The guys like Riley are more of the norm. Adjusting to ML pitching is hard for 99.8% of players.

Should that run have counted? Wasn’t Panda doubled off?

I guess I just assumed it would play like a force. Never really thought about that situation.

He was out but last nights game at the plate was an easier call than that.

As we all should be, but let's let his career breathe a little before making a declaration either way.

Remember when everyone thought that Francouer was the next great one after 30 games?
