What Rutschman just did there was maybe the most legendary thing I've seen.

hot take: Vladdy's swing has changed for the worse. fire the coach that made him change his swing.

Vlad doesn't have the endurance to swing for 3 minutes straight like he did even four years ago. He's in much worse shape. If he could do that, I think he'd win.

I've never seen anybody so exhausted from this competition as Vlad is here. He can't go 2nd in the final, so he'll have virtually no rest time either.

I was just thinking, we might have the least in-shape pitcher, and the least in-shape position player under the age of 25 in the league!
(actually, maybe the least 2 In-shape position players in the league, considering Kirk!)

One of the kids in the outfield just got nailed in the face by a Vladdy hit. He totally misread the fly ball.

Vlad needs a delay here to rest. Get him an oxygen tank.

HR derbies have never been so dangerous. Vlad is out there hitting 115 MPH line drives all over the field.

Kid caught one to the head off Pete Alonso in a previous year. MLB just really enjoys grievously injuring small children.

So they force Vlad to wear a Mariners themed necklace? Kind of sticks in my craw lol.

He did it! Pretty impressive that he did it going back to back with little rest

Vlad continues to fake not knowing how to speak English

ESPN caption just read that Vladdy is the second Cuban born player to win the HR derby

What a win. First Jay ever and second Canadian born ever to win (even if it did say Cuban born lol guessing they expected Randy to win)
