I think I like the Brett Boone hire.  
 

Family have all been baseball lifers

 

he was a believer in the Rangers in ‘23 long before anyone else

 

This was a Michael Young deal (they wanted Michael to take the job, he found his buddy and got the deal done)

 

He, like Edgar Martinez is doing in Seattle, is going to focus more on some older school stuff (making contact and driving the ball the other way, not swinging out of your shoes every swing, driving the ball rather than launch angle, etc)      The launch angle approach is great when you’re on, but leads to a lot of swings/misses and completely ineffective at bats

Dude still looks like he could hit 10-15 bombs/yr at 50+

Do you think he pulled a Constanza with anyone yet.

It seems odd to me that MLB teams actually have a “hitting coach”.   These guys with 50-60 million dollar contracts have been hitting with other guys for years….. hell tons of high school kids have a “hitting coach”.    Now they report to their team and have someone else as a “hitting coach” ….. just seems counter productive.

I hate everyone that thinks like you.  The bro brah brehs.  

Youth baseball has become a douchebag manufacturer because everyone cares about their private sessions and not winning games.

Joc is halfway home on a natural cycle.

He could use a couple unnatural cycles the way he's hit the ball this season.

Josh is having fun

That was hilarious! 

Re: J. Smith, I actually won his batting helmet, which is slightly damaged, in an auction and a signed baseball of his. Looks nice in the glass case I bought for them!
