tejada is 2-2 with a HR vs Bumgarner tonight.. very impressive.
Davis tallied a hit off of the very tough lefty Bumgarner which is nice to see.. only 3 hits through 7 innings off of him, 2 from Tejada and the other from Davis.. and btw Bumgarner is 2-4 with the bat with a HR. jeez.
Does Duda’s hitting streak make his forecast any brighter?
nah.. looks like daniel murphy 2.0
If Duda could be daniel murphy 2.0, I’d take it!
But I don’t think the players are similar at all.
they are both 1B/OF who have good eyes at the plate but dont have enough power. thats the simple similarity i see in them.
if my memory serves me correctly from watching duda, murph is much more mobile. if duda ever succeeds at a higher level, he has to hit the long ball to compensate for lackluster skills in fielding and running.
thats breaking it down even more.. im just talking about the simple boxscore stats like avg/obp, power and position
The 19-game hitting streak does not, in any way, impact his prospect status.
Havens was 2-4 with his 9th HR of the year.. yay for Reese.
I’m not sure if I really like Ruben Tejada any more. I think I love him.
