It was ridiculous how the Pirates let Joey Bats go, and then they had to give something up to get him back. And then he was let go because he wasn’t a part of Huntington’s “plan” and all they got was a back-up catcher who is not even in the organization anymore and now only Garrett Jones has at least half of the amount of home runs that Joey Bats has hit.

“Bautista has led the Blue Jays to a league-leading 115 homers”

LOL yeah might want to reword that

Why? The sentence makes perfect sense. The Blue Jays lead the MLB with 115 home runs.

I don’t blame Bucs GM Neal Huntington for dealing Jose Bautista. Joey Bats had the potential to hit for power, but hadn’t shown it until this year. Huntington did what a lot of GM would have done and cut their losses. Sometimes you’re the windshield and sometimes you’re the bug.

He’ll probably finish with 27 home runs and will be forgotten. He’s not that good. He’s a flash in the pan.

27 is still pretty good and I like the way he’s played. His BA isn’t high but he shows a lot of patience which is why his OBP is pretty high and he really hits for power. It’s hard to get a fastball by him but he’s also been practicing hitting breaking pitches and if he can do that, he can a very solid hitter. He can be pretty useful to a club looking for some versatility, as he can play 3B and any outfield position. He’s not great at 3B but he’s not bad either, probably slightly above average and his defense is good in the outfield and he’s got a cannon arm.
I think he ends up hitting 32 homeruns.
