Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
His 2018 numbers after 83 AB are pretty much in line with his abysmal 2017 production after 147 AB:
- 2017: .190/.288/.422/.710
- 2018: .193/.295/.398/.693

He's got a beautiful swing. Just not effective.

Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
1B production was markedly better with the Tyler Austin & friends platoon. A shame Austin fell off the cliff when he realized Bird was just going to take the job when he got healthy.

1B Miguel Flames is raking to the tune of .353 for the RiverDogs. Just sayin'.

Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
I dunno, from the start of the season until May 2nd he was the regular 1B. After that, Bird began playing in the minors and Austin knew he was done and I'm guessing it got to his head.
And from the start until May 2nd, he was 5 homers 16 homers .261/.329/.565.
No question he totally stunk after that period, but it was a decent sustained period.

An opposite-field RBI single and a walk so far tonight. Baby steps.

Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
He's looking like he's swinging under water at the moment.

Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
Those comps will become an insult to Nick Johnson if he continues doing what he's doing. At least NJ produced when he was on the field.
*Still believe in GB but he has got to start performing.

Re: 2018 Greg Bird Performance Thread
“I think he’s healthy,’’ Boone said. “The injury is fixed. The biggest thing is he had surgery and just like a guy has arm surgery and you’re fine and good to go, I think there are still things to work through. I think that’s fair and I think he probably is, in a way, working through and building that stamina, if you will, that allows you to repeat things and get back to the hitter we know he is.”
Whatever the reason, Bird has been woeful at the plate, both during spring training — before he got a bone spur removed from his right ankle — and in 26 regular-season games entering Tuesday had a .677 OPS. That would be the worst OPS among qualifying first basemen if Bird had enough plate appearances.
“Even though he hasn’t impacted the ball yet like we know he can … I still feel there are signs that would suggest he’s close enough,’’ Boone said, pointing to Boone’s plate discipline. “Hopefully as he builds up his strength and stamina, it starts to turn into more impactful swings on a nightly basis.”Calmer than you are
