The thing I noticed Bob's throw is similar to what I've seen Mahomes do. You can really tell Mahomes' baseball background.

He's .304/.336/.502 with 8 HR, 35 RBI, 21R, and 13 SB since June 1.

Those numbers climb to .327/.355/.617 with 6 HR, 23 RBI, 13 R, and 7 SB since July 1, which is around when that discussion really picked up. He also has drastically trimmed his K rate.

The June -current numbers, projected over 150 games, would look like this:

61R/23 HR/38 SB/101 RBI

July-current:

75R/34 HR/40 SB/133 RBI

Yeah. He's hot right now, but we could be seeing the superstar level unlock as we watch (maybe sometimes, if it's convenient and we're not too busy).

Hopefully but no matter how good he is, it's more than, ask the Angels about that.

Will Bobby Witt Jr surpass Carlos Beltran as greatest Royal prospect to barely sniff a .500 record in his years with the Royals?

Man, the Mets are just rolling over. Getaway day, indeed.

It has been quite the ride for us Mets fans this year.

So happy they decided to do the re-tool rather than forcing it.

Oh, well aware.

But if Witt hits his upside, it moves the needle a lot.

A healthy Vinnie Pasquantino paired with this version of Witt is a pretty potent lineup core, especially if Maikel Garcia and Michael Massey continue to be solid contributors with the bat (Massey has been really good since May 1).

Why do you even follow the team? Nothing positive ever comes from your keyboard.

I haven't been following very closely, is Fermin the real deal or flash in a pan? How's his catching?
