Stanton just homered in his fifth straight game - 10 HR's in last 10 games.

Crazy to me that he has hit 43 homers, 25 doubles, and only has 93 RBI.

jjgold · 08-14-17, 07:47 PM

He swings for the fences every single time

I rather have a great pitcher

Chi_archie · 08-14-17, 07:50 PM

Strong

How about 17 hits this month, 10 are homers.

Ask Dee Gordon if he likes hitting in front of him.

pattymayo · 08-14-17, 08:00 PM

was his 250th home run, turns just 28 in November. If he can stay healthy he's a legit 700 HR threat

stevenash · 08-14-17, 08:01 PM

In other news Kris Bryant now has 10 hits in his last 12 at bats.

And my favorite, Schwarber just struck out for the 8th consecutive time.

Kermit · 08-14-17, 08:05 PM

And Judge has what? 5 homers since the break?

Was a good gun down at home though...but ya, the strikeouts is pretty funny

stevenash · 08-14-17, 08:07 PM

That #99 guy for the Yanks just hit one to the moon for his 36th.

My God, he made it so effortless, to the opposite field too boot.
If he can keep going to right and right center the skies the limit for that big boy.

Wow, should make him take his next at bat with a golden sombrero on!

*Had to go have a look he has three this season!

And Maddon the 'genius' keeps plugging him in the five hole.
I mean why the hell would any pitcher pitch to the clean up guy (Zobrist tonight) knowing Schwarber coming up next is going to be his bitch.

The Giant · 08-14-17, 08:13 PM

This guy stole my thread idea?!

Nash, you're lucky I don't beat your ass.

TheMoneyShot · 08-14-17, 08:17 PM

117 whiffs though? Damn... put the ball in play kid.

You and who else?
(who loves 'ya baby?)

Oh, and I stand corrected, the original lineup card had Zobrist hitting fourth, looks like he's a late minute scratch.
Rizzo is hitting fourth now.

SCHWARBER ALERT
Here he comes now.

Yup, Barry Bonds, Sammy Sosa and Mark Mcguire all come to mind.. Went from good players to a great players almost over night and as soon as the needle was administered... Home run derby is what happened with those juicers..

Masking the tests are possible..

jtoler · 08-14-17, 08:23 PM

Most vicious swing in mlb history.

stevenash · 08-14-17, 08:23 PM

First and third, two out.
Game tied at 2 and 2

Schwarder at the plate.

Pitch #1 weak four. fastball
Pitch #2 ball low. fastball
Pitch #3 ball inside. slider
Pitch #4 weak foul. slider.
Pitch #5 ball low. curve (he almost broke his wrist on a check swing)
Pitch #6 hard pulled foul ball.
Pitch #7 fouled back, slider late on pitch. (he's hacking)
Pitch #8 fouled back again, late on pitch.
Pitch #9 HIT BY PITCH - That was a cocktease

Remember the ball he hit that broke the scoreboard?

stevenash · 08-14-17, 08:57 PM

Bryant and Rizzo just went back to back.
Check out the Rizzo job if you get a chance, he put it in freaking Lake Michigan.
Makes Judge's homer look like a pop up.

These balls are wound up super balls.

yes the grand slam. wonder how big he as as a little leaguer, I remember we had a kid who was 13 but built like a man already, 6'2 and filled out, no fat, lefty, nice swing, he didnt look like he belonged with us.

jjgold · 08-14-17, 09:53 PM

They juice the balls this year and it hurt the game

Major league baseball knows the games in trouble so they had to do something

mackave · 08-14-17, 09:54 PM

Damn these O's ... on fire.

t-wizzle · 08-14-17, 10:08 PM

He's on a tear. They were looking to trade him a month ago lol.

No they weren't.

funnyb25 · 08-15-17, 10:30 AM

Stanton and Votto are my two favorite batters to watch.

Votto's double last night was classic when the Cubbies put 4 in the outfield. Didn't matta

stevenash · 08-15-17, 07:36 PM

Michael Kay might be right, this is becoming comical.

Stanton just hit a bomb on a 0-1 pitch from Mad-Bum.

This is the hottest I've ever seen a hitter.

crackerjack · 08-15-17, 07:51 PM

The prop on a Stanton hitting a homer this afternoon is +180.
That's a horrible number, Matt Cain or no Matt Cain.
Think about it, 9:5 odds on a hitter who will get 4 at bats, 5 max, who'll get nothing good to swing at all day is awful. Hate to fade this guy right now, but I'll open up a parlay with no Stanton HR at -240.
