    89.4 MPH exit velocity, so not particularly hard.

    I feel like there's too much talk/pressure about him developing power. Just let the dude hit his singles and take a ton of walks for now. He can bulk and find his power eventually, who cares.

    Yes. I can accept Neto hitting .220 with 10-12 HRs because he saves runs on defense. Schanuel is probably the best fielding 1Bman we have, but the difference is minor. He needs to (at a minimum) hit .260 with a .340 OBP to earn playing time.

    Which means that expectations are very different. Half of Neto's value is his defense, while maybe about 10% of Schanuel's value--as a first baseman--is defense. Not to mention base-running.

    Rengifo and Adell need to play everyday.

    So I guess Hicks has earned playing time over Adell?
    The rest of the lineup is fine, but Adell constantly riding the pine is starting to worry me. With the short porch in left, I could see him getting one over the monster.

    You may be right, but I get the feeling many of these failings derived from Moreno's limitations.

    Let him play. He will learn to hit at this level.

    Chuck is the only person I've ever known to post a selfie after a colonoscopy.

    Here is a player that has paid his dues in the minors. He has a lot of talent and needs to play everyday. His bat could add a lot to this lineup what the hell is Washington thinking.

    Been out today with a colonoscopy today but I’m happy to report that everything came back good. I’m clean and don’t have to do another one for another 10 years. 

    So far I can’t tell the difference between the whole colonoscopy experience today and the Angels play this afternoon. 
    The similarities are quite telling. 
    Shitty pitching & defense & the offense has been ass.

    Sitting Adell and Sano for Hicks at DH makes no sense. I kinda feel bad for Adell, he deserves more reps.

    I also think they're not doing Adell any favors. Why is Sano and Hicks getting more starts than him? Isn't this his last year with the team before he becomes a free agent?
