Grisham is golden....again!

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbs8.com/amp/article/sports/mlb/padres/grisham-is-golden-padres-centerfielder-second-gold-glove/509-5096e04f-e032-4a7c-8b25-3ea5e0f164f4

He's our CF going forward....end of.

The dude needs to figure out how to hit better ... we all appreciate the glove, no doubt about it!

Agreed.

If he can hit just .230( like Juan Soto) he's well worth keeping.

If you look at his career numbers now in SD, you can look at it two ways.

  1. His first two seasons with SD, he hit around .245 BA/ .340 OBP/ .435 SLG. Put that with GG defense in CF, and thats really pretty good. And 2023 was a rough start that he buried himself and couldnt pull out. Or,
  2. 2020 in SD was his best year, 2021 his numbers declined slightly, and in 2023 they declined a lot. Although his HRs have stayed about the same. Has he not been able to make adjustments to the way they are pitching him now?

So is he declining and 2023 is going to be even worse, or was 2022 an aberration and he is going to be back closer to the combined 20-21 numbers???

He seemed A LOT more aggressive in the first 2 playoff rounds than he was against Philadelphia.

I can stand the K's, as long as he's being aggressive. It's the watching every pitch go by without lifting your bat off your shoulder that kills me.

Let's hope he does rebound to his previous stats...and continue the GG defense.

I expect Soto to revert back to his former self and hit between .280 - .300 in 2023.

He is “not” a .240 hitter.

 

 

Without the shift I expect Grish to be .230 in 23
