IS THERE SOME 'ACTION' PREMIUM I DIDN'T PAY WITH THE BASEBALL PACKAGE, THAT WOULD ALLOW ME TO ACTUALLY WATCH THE GAME AS IT HAPPENS, RATHER THAN ONLY GETTING THE BETWEEN-PITCH COMMENTARY AND FREEZES IN THE ACTION?

 

HMMM

Nice Youkilis! HELL yeah!

 

Do people here really believe that Youkilis is barely above average? this guy seems like a hell of a hitter to me.

He just has a really ugly swing.

I don't think he's a .900 OPS player, but .800-.850 is well within his range.

 

Tek! 2-1

What part of his offensive game do you think is too high right now?

 

It seems to me like his OBP will be pretty consistent, and that the big change he has made is using his reputation/ability as a patient hitter to get in good counts and hit easy get-it-over pitches early in the count. When he gets his pitch he can hit it hard, like most decent MLB hitters.

Nah, that pitch was 3 inches off the plate against Youkilis. Sorry Maddux. Youkilis deserves credit for his eye like you deserve it for your precision.

Slugging, obviously. I think a .400 OBP is sustainable for him but I really think he's slugged a bit over his head to this point.
