Some of you need to stop being apologists and just realize morel is fucking awful.

Dude, he's still just a rookie. Believe it or not, young players sometimes get better with experience. Wierd, right?

I normally don't agree with poodski on anything, but Morel being a rookie doesn't excuse his shit production at 3B.

I can deal with shit production if the defense is really solid.

See: Anderson, Brian. Beckham, Gordon, etc.

I agree, as long as there are others in the lineup who step it up offensively, which unfortunately didn't happen this year. But Morel is an asset for his glove.

Yes, but he also hits like an ass with the bat.

Heres my thing about Morel, if the bats that are supposed to hit are hitting (Dunn, Rios, Beckham) then we arent talking about Morels bat. I think hell be fine. His at bats look better than Beckhams Rios or Dunns for that matter.

I know he's a rookie but 1 HR? Seriously unacceptable.

We're gonna need some more pop from 3B going forward.

Morel may not be the guy & I like him alot.

I totally agree, his power numbers need to improve. I thought that he would at least have 15 by seasons end. That is the only disappointing thing from him imo

Does anyone else notice that there are some at bats where Alexei looks lost? Swinging at three outside pitches or something like that...

Dunn is rubbing off on him. :facepalm:

I remember specifically this one at bat. First pitch he took, strike 1. Second pitch high, strike 2. Third pitch breaking ball way down and way out of the zone, strike 3. :facepalm:

It's official. He's got Dunn's disease. It's a cancer spread by Greg Walker.

Maybe it's not Adam Dunn disease. Maybe it's Greg Walker disease that has been spread to everyone. :thinking:
