5/20 vs M's

[Bellhorn04]

Either way it was good to see JBJ come through with a big hit like that.

 

Absolutely.

[moonslav59]

That won't last long. Everytime this season when JBJ has had a few good games he goes back to sucking for a few weeks. I'll be shocked if he can put up an OPS above 600 this year

 

I doubt he will end up over .600, too, but I still think there is a glimmer of hope he can string together a longer hot streak, like he has as recently as 2020. Hitting the ball to LF has always been the key for him, and that homer could be a sign he's found that groove, again.

 

I have serious doubts, and I have from day one.

[Bellhorn04]

JBJ has a bWAR of 0.6 now. Mainly because of his D, obviously.

I find it amusing that all of a sudden, most of the doomsday naysayers on this place have gone into hibernation

 

Very typical, too.

Try to have some optimism about your favorite player.
