Shildt "Well yea, Nando is out for a couple months but think of how hard his replacement is gonna play! Sure we'll keep losing >=50% of the games we play, but we're gonna hit the ball hard!"
Love his NO BS answers:? Wants the W for the team, just a game we won, not thinking about being in a losing streak. Careless about MVP, No recipe for success, just hard work. The Kid is building the foundation to become a Superstar! LFGSD dude!
Amazing that he has progressed so quickly. He doesn’t have blinding speed, but he has successfully made the transition to CF, which can’t be easy esp. at his age. Best of luck, son!
It's been about 3-1/2 months since this interview and he's has been doing sooooo well!!! He's taken off and that Knuckler is much more than that as of recently.
I was REALLLY impressed with the kid...I really was. And it was the 'crispness' and life of his pitches, that got my attention. And I didnt mind that he was amped up...because it sorta showed his how hard he threw when the ball was flying way up in the zone. When Mike pulled him out, I thought 'this kid can be a #2 or #3 starter eventually".
This enigma of struggling against non contending teams is getting old. They should be embarrassed as a team. The way they feel good about beating great teams, they should be embarrassed to lose against bottom dwellers. 500 here we come, below 500 by the end of the week.
@@melanierodriguez9113 No. That has nothing to do with it. I want the Guardians to win because their first-year head coach is a very loving Christian man. He is so classy! Have a great day!
They destroyed this kid already by senselessly rushing him for absolutely no good reason whatsoever. He's struggling big time to get his average over .175 all year in high A now. Not good Bob. Not good. They rushed de Vries too, and he's scuffling BIG TIME now as well. Preller might want to completely restructure his approach to player development, because this is seriously dumb af lol.
LOOK AT BRYCE HARPER COMING THROUGH FOR THE PHILLIES. THAT MAN IS CONSISTENT AND DEFINITION OF A REAL LEADER. BOYCOTT THIS MANS SALARY AND WATCH HIM START PLAYING.
It’s baseball and theirs no crying in baseball so quit crying!! It’s a long season and I like this team especially the veterans cause they are the foundation. I’d rather have a veteran fail than younger guys cause they’ve been there done that. Never discount veteran and leadership no matter what stats!!
Good days, bad days. Mostly bad days. Two more double plays today. Suuuuuuuucks. Terrible albatross of a contract. With his and Xander's the team is screwed for a decade. The back of your baseball card means nothing today. That's in the past. Manny will finish the season with a .220 BA, 10 HRs, 50 RBI, and 300 GIDP. And zero f**** to give. Got his bag, sit back and relax. Have some pride bro. Just got smoked by a terrible team. Not a superstar. Not even a star. A well below average MLB player making $30 mil. The worst player for the money in baseball.
