Quote from: Hognrock on Jun 27, 2024, 06:47 PMSilent J is 2-2 with a HR and 3 rbi and scored 2 runs 👍

I really think if they will give him a few weeks in the lineup he'll do great. You have to have regular reps to hit well.

Just came to post this. We'll be there tomorrow night

Old Mountain Joe looked stunned

He is struggling a little

yeah what is up with Bennintendi? he has really fallen off after 3-4 good years to start his career.

Corn Pop · Jun 28, 2024, 08:31 PM

Go Kjerstad. Go Orioles.

And of course he didn't play tonight. Don't know what it is.

Fucking Tate Nompson is their hitting coach.

The main problem is playing for the worst team in baseball. Their entire offense is dreadful. It has to be demoralizing for anyone.

That image above is somewhat old. He crept back over the Mendoza Line last night. He's been bouncing around that for the last month or so.

He has 45 hits in 63 games, and only 12 for extra bases.

Usafhawg · Jun 29, 2024, 07:46 PM

Silent J just hit a grand slam.

Ray Zorback · Jun 29, 2024, 08:24 PM

Next time up, they intentionally walked him.

He's hitting them to the deep part of the field.

Show-Me Hog · Jun 29, 2024, 10:14 PM

That's awesome. He was pumped. It looked like he hit a pop up that went out. That's power.

Thin Red Swine · Jun 30, 2024, 08:00 AM

Ok, maybe it's not the team. The White Sox scored 11 yesterday. Benny was 0-5 to drop back to .197. Oof.

Halfway through the season, he's getting paid $183,333 per hit.

The O's- Rangers game is on espn tonight at 6:00 Arkansas time if you want to tune in. Lineup hasn't been released, so don't know if he's playing or not.

jdcatty · Jun 30, 2024, 10:52 AM

And now there are rumors that Kjerstad may be traded (along with some other guys) to the White Sox for a pitcher. Shit. The White Sox!

There have been rumors all year about him being traded

Wow. Kjerstad getting the start against a left handed pitcher tonight. I think that is a first in the show.

Hognrock · Jul 07, 2024, 03:17 PM

Silent J with a 3-run bomb in the 1st. 👍

Thin Red Swine · Jul 07, 2024, 05:41 PM

Went to Miami today on a whim after seeing that Benintendi and the White Sox were in town.

We got to watch him...walk out of the dugout for the anthem and could see the top of his head most of the time chatting with one of the other pineriders.

We had great seats that cost only $24 apiece. Granted, it was the two worst teams in the league.

And we saw a walk-off homer by the Marlins, so at least it wasn't totally boring.
