SAS Request: List as many toe tap stride hitters as you can. Think Sammy Sosa. I tend to watch a lot of slow motion and analysis videos on baseball swings and I've recently adopted a toe touch stride but I'm having trouble finding information and videos on players who use the toe touch stride besides big names like Sosa/Chipper.

Tulo used to have a toe tap but now he's all about that leg kick. Leg kicks are the new hotness, catch up Popete.

Matt Harvey has thoracic outlet syndrome. Very rare for a pitcher to come back from that and be a 200-inning guy again.

Inspector_666 posted:Tulo used to have a toe tap but now he's all about that leg kick. Big ol' monster leg kicks well cool looking really throw off my timing and balance. The toe tap is funny cause it always looks like the hitter hosed up and is trying to restart their stride mid swing. Jose Bautista I am not.

Shame for Harvey that he has the worst agent in baseball. Imagine if it was even a possibility that a year removed from TJ Harvey got a deal that paid him like 10-15 mil a year at the expense of a year or two of FA. The Mets would of jumped on that in a second. Harvey would have a nice nest egg in the bank no matter what. Now the guy is going to hit arbitration with a TJ on his resume and now this, which might cost him his career.

Boras wouldn't let that happen because it would crush his shark image. All his guys are going to get huge massive bank-breaking contracts. Boras let this happen because he's too obsessed with his own reputation, and Matt Harvey may have to deal with it for the rest of his life.

You're calling the guy who got the O's to compete with themselves to get Chris Davis 7/160 and tried to get Harvey to stop pitching in 2015 for this exact reason the worst agent in baseball? I'm sorry your team broken one of it's rising stars, but it certainly has nothing to do with his agent.

I have found fantastic pizza, poutine, pho, and a hipster as gently caress sausage place that was excellent in Toronto but I have yet to find respectable Mexican food there. I found some passable tacos around Dundas and Church once but that's the closest so far. Toronto is a great city (particularly in the summer) and I have always enjoyed my time there but I can't imagine recommending someone actually seek out Mexican food there. I realize this post is days old, but I like La Carnita. ArtVandelay posted:I didn't go to Burrito Boyz, but I did just go to Burger's Priest. That place is amazing. Thanks for the Toronto recommendations guys. Burger Priest is, like, my favourite burger joint. For baseball related posting, uh, I hope the Jays keep a-winnin'.

First seems like an ok pitching prospect, latter seems like he probably won't go anywhere. That about right? Seems like a decent trade since we have plenty of infield depth in the minors but still struggle to develop pitching.

Seems like a decent trade since we have plenty of infield depth in the minors but still struggle to develop pitching. Wilkerson is a guy the Red Sox picked up off the scrap heap, and given what a dumpster fire their 4th and 5th starters have been this season you have to think if they thought he was going to be good at the MLB level he'd be in Boston right now. With Rijo there's the fact that he's under aged for his level to explain away his poor performance this year and hope that he'll turn into something.
