I just watched the replay. That was a really good slider away. Amazing he did a compact swing it looked like to me and lined it out. So much strength.

This has to be the longest HR drought of his career.

What a goofy comment. They've lost ground in the AL West in large part because Yordan's having one of the worst months of his career. It's OK to acknowledge reality.

On the other hand, Seattle has the AL West lead now because Julio has been hitting out of his mind this past month.

.825 OPS so far in the second half. What's going on?

It’s Yordan. I’m a fan of his but it’s getting old with the power outage, inconsistent stretches year after year. He’s the king of going from average power hitter to amazing within a few months while mixing in lengthy IL stints. We’ve all been waiting on a year where he stays on the field at least 80% of the season and yet here we are again with a “what if” year. With so many injuries he deals with, makes me wonder if he will have a career over 10 years. I love him in the lineup, but somethings definitely going on with him.

I think the injury is still bothering him in a way, and he jammed his thumb for fingers in a door too recently.

Goofy comment?
I posted during the game when he hit a 2 run double and the Astro's had 25 hits. Accurate comment maybe.
Not sure what that has to do with acknowledging reality but whatever floats your boat.

Thanks! I never expect 10’s when I buy raw, but it’s still nice when it happens.

This thread is supposedly mostly "fans and collectors" but there wasn't a single post for 3 weeks when he was slumping. Sure seems like true "fans and collectors" and not Yordan pumpers

Some people just get tired of the toxicity on these forums. It's not just this thread, but it is the same posters (you know who you are) over and over and they do it in most of the other player threads as well.

There's a group of Yordan collectors on IG and that's where most of us spend our time now rather than here. Less BS and trolling overall, sadly enough.

Oh yeah, and another HR...

LOL right. Just so happens to coincide with a massive slump during which nothing "toxic" was said because there wasn't a single post here for 3 weeks.

I've been wrecking the Mookie, Ohtani, and Soto threads. Cover your eyes if you look there

There wasn’t much to say during that time.
