Guess the Crew should make it a priority to sign him or trade for him in the offseason. Seems to be the only way he won't kill the Crew.

Oh and also his first home run of the year batting right handed. Infuriating.

Hamilton jacking a homer was mostly fluke. That said, i question if going forward this year, he's going to have more problems if he continues throwing almost entirely fastballs.

Opposing teams can watch film and see that he rarely throws anything except fastballs. To lefthanded hitters that may be enough given his tough arm angle to lefties, but to righthanded batters, they'll start timing it.

I get that Hader's changeup is a work in progress, but i do wonder why he doesn't throw at least his slider more often so hitters can't just sit on his fastball? Major league hitters see 95-97 on a regular basis, it's pitchers who have both a big fastball and a tough secondary pitch which are hard to hit.

You guys can't be serious about Hader. That was the biggest case of sun shining on a monkeys ass I've ever seen.

If memory serves, he had a season where he was like 25/25 on SB attempts, no?

Granted I don't remember hearing anything on him for the past like 5 years since then lol

It can be both. Hamilton's homer was probably a fluke but you can still predict future struggles given that Hader is only throwing fastballs with a few sliders sprinkled in.

Hader should learn if he hasnt one of the following. A 2 seamer, cutter, sinker or a splitter. With another one of those he could be great

Yup. Hamilton is the Brewer Killer to lead all Brewer Killers. The sooner he's traded to or signs with an American League team, the better.

Stretch drive of a pennant race, good time to experiment.

Rather have Davies at bat than Vogt or Villar
