Is this board now incapable of recognizing snark?

That's a great attitude for Miller to have. It goes against what Duncan preaches, but it's the right approach... assuming he can keep his pitch counts down to make it deep into games.

No I understood it. I just didn't want to put something out there as gospel when I can't find it now.

I have been searching all morning and have heard him a couple times say the contrary (regarding how he feels about getting guys out) and his goal is 1 pitch 1 out. But if he has 2 strikes then 'might as well go ahead and strike him out. I love to strike people out.'

The approach is correct. And, I agree, it's a great approach.

2 hits and counting tonight, w/ a single and a ground-rule double.

Currently hitting .405.

How's his defense? Any chance he pulls a Matt Adams and skips Palm Beach to keep his hot hitting up in the Texas league?

He's just 19. I doubt they will rush him, especially since he's missed so much time with injury. He has less than 190 pa's this season.

Forgot about the injury, good point.
