Andre Ethier is such a pussy nowaday, so sad, pisses me off even more knowing Pederson is sitting there...............
It's just sad with those players cause everyone remembers them in there shit times and wants them to do what they did in age 27-28 but age in baseball for a hitter is fuckkng lame. This is the last year we can get by having this age on this team, need the prospects to be there sooner cause none of these guys are gonna get younger, it happens
It's also kinda the curse of being a "rich" team. These GMS, well Ned, doesn't act smart and signs these guys up long term for years where they're gonna decline and you're stuck with them, whereas it's better suited to have them only for there prime. Everyone ends up hating all your hitters cause you have to watch them decline and you blame the player when it's just the shit that happens. I'm all sad now lol just doesn't seem to me like Andre, Adrian and even Hanley are gonna improve significantly and all of a sudden hit like prime players.
I mean hopefully both do but desperately need Adrian to especially given their positions that Adrian needs to hit more than Ethier does
I'm the same age as Ethier, and I don't get five months off work and paid millions yet I still work out and have just as much muscle mass as I did in my late 20's. The fact that he's so skinny is what fucks me off, at least Hanley and Gonzo haven't given up and changed their body types to their own detriment.
Another thing, Doyer. I've played sport my whole life. It's a fact that despite my experience and gained wisdom a younger me would still smoke me on the rugby field. However, it's true what they say, your strength is the last thing to go. I've lost reaction time, I get a lot more sore the following day, and I get gassed easier. However, I am benching 30kg more than I was at 31 than I was at 27. There is absolutely no fucking way in the world Andre Ethier should have three home runs. No fucking way. That's not a decaying hitter, that's a lazy hitter.
