  1. Borba’s numbers in SEC play really tell the story a lot of people see.

    .227 BA

    .792 OPS

    38 strikeouts to 30 BB/HBP in 97 plate appearances.

     

    So yeah, dramatic improvement seems fitting.

    I have to tell you, the ongoing hate towards Borba as a hitter is absurd. It was thing in the 2025 thread, game threads, and now here. I get that he took too many called 3rd strikes for some people's liking, but the guy hit pretty fucking well down the stretch and, ultimately, on the year. He could be in store for a massive season based on the the work they're pushing with him regarding a focus on all fields with power. 

    His swing is a little long and yes, was a dead pull hitter. Sure, we all heard Schloss discuss trying to get him to use all fields. That would help. He had a nice finish to the year. However, I don’t think an average bat and average glove is what Schloss has in mind at a place like 3rd base.

    He will need to improve a good bit imo. It’s not out of the question, he just needs a big step forward this summer/fall.

  3. Not sure we’ve seen club face control, for years, like we are seeing with Scotty. Probably Tiger 2000 but it’s hard to remember week to week, 25 years ago. Just a truly remarkable level of consistency.

    Do you think they are willingly playing Rodriguez over Mendoza at second base? Mendoza physically can’t play the field and Rodriguez isn’t a good defensive second or third baseman so not sure why we believe he will magically be a better SS while also playing with pretty much one hand.

    Nothing signals panic to your locker room like benching the guy who has played every inning at SS this year in an elimination game.

    What does bunting Flores signal?

  5. UTSA will give up a lot of runs the rest of the way. If we can somehow get a lengthy pitching performance in game 3, I like our chances. 

    Re-focus your club, Schloss.
