Muncy is 35 this guy is 25. The Dodgers will gladly sign him then probably trade Muncy.

Depends on his walk rate...

HoggieHunches · 11-07-2025, 02:29 PM

Saw something that his BA is under .100 on pitches over 93 MPH...

Depends on his plate discipline -- Dunn had a good batting eye.

Also, the comp probably wouldn't work, regardless -- Dunn was 6'-6", which is partially why his k-rate was so high.

JRX · 11-07-2025, 02:56 PM

His K rate was 20% his 56HR year. He may have started selling out for more power after that. His contact rate was also 68-70%. So if you can get him back to that you'll have a star.

coltsnsox07 · 11-07-2025, 08:59 PM

I'd love to see him face the Brewer's Misiorowski, he'd probably still be in his load after the ball has hit Contreras' catcher's mitt.

He hit 56 HR then sold out for more power, hitting 31, 33, and 24 HR over the next three seasons?

Just sold my biggest card of his and it's been a steady stream this week.

Does he come with an interpreter? Topps interpreter cards coming. "私は通訳です" Sign here in Japanese.

Only if its an interpreter that also does gambling.

jdandns · 11-09-2025, 12:00 PM

I think Pittsburgh will get him.

Didn't scouts and "insiders" think Ohtani couldn't adapt to MLB fastballs either? Think one notable writer said Ohtani would be nothing more than a high school-level hitter in possibly one of the worst takes in the history of the internet. Lol
