was all set to watch the game last night, but nope, for some stupid reason, MLB sees L.A. close enough to San Diego to black it out in my area.
Extremely stupid, especially considering it's just a spring training game. |
ITS HAPPENING!!

WOW.

If you’re wondering why Witt looks like Tulo now, he works with trainer Bobby Strouoe out of Dallas. He’s got clients like the guy Witt is most often compared to Trevor Story.
Oh. And that one guy who plays QB for the Chiefs, what’s his name |

I think those Story comparisons are going to fade. That was based on him having some significant contact and swing and miss issues. Those seem to have been ... addressed. And quickly. Witt used to have some holes in his swing that just... simply aren’t there now. And he did that without sacrificing bat speed or power. He just fixed his holes AND improved his plate discipline. (It appears) I hope everyone recognizes 1) how hard/rare it is to fix ONE of those issues 2) how insane it is to fix BOTH. We may have someone incredibly special on our hands here. |

It's easy to get overhyped with prospects but the way he has just exploded this Spring (after a solid Spring last year) has been special to watch. |

Putting Witt on the opening day roster is one of the dumbest things any team in baseball can do right now. If this team was ready to win a WS maybe it's more defendable...but even then not really.
