He must have sensed me shit talking him. I was joking with my dad about how the catcher didn't need to go out because Voit would just swing through whatever pitch he got anyway.

Did you see when his backswing hit the Catcher right in the mask and about knocked it off?

I just about came on to say that was the best contact I’d seen from him in some time.

Combo of team running cold and humidor keeping the balls "wet" in a Stadium next to a Bay (which already is wet)... once July/August comes I expect this team to #1 be hitting better 1-9 and 2 for the dryer air to produce more distance on balls... Team is hitting a bunch of singles all over the place but not slugging much sans 1 or 2 guys at a time... Tatis will definetely affect this and teams won't be able to pitch around Manny like they been doing

And wait til we go to Coors and score 30-40 runs in a 3 or 4 game series... that discrepancy only going to be >

I’m starting to worry we may not see Tatis until closer to August than June.

Considering he is not swing the bat yet … three hurdles: 1) get clearance to swing the bat; 2) time swinging the bat to the point of no paid / impingement); 3) get timing down to be effective hitting in the ML.

Put all those together and may not see a “productive” Tatis until (into) August.

He is young so should heal quickly and has enough natural talent to get into game shape / timing back comparatively quickly … but this is already the end of May and August is only 5 weeks away.

Well, Rogers wasn't going to be perfect forever and when you leave 16 guys on base you're kind of asking for it.
