Kemp Rehab Watch (lol)

I need prior examples and statistics. Where is VRP when I need him?

 

I speak the truth.

 

Actually I would say Dwight, both had shoulder surgery both have been shit since.

 

Let's not forget, Kemp is still young. The body does amazing things when you are young.

 

I've said this before but a friend of mine who played college football had shoulder surgery several years ago and he says it still doesn't feel as strong as it used to. He works out 5 times a week still. Shoulder surgery might just be a death sentence for a certain amount of power.

 

Kemp is still crushing balls in BP though, and the HRs he hit this year were not cheap at all. Something that does make sense is Ford's ideaology that Kemp has lost bat speed and it is fucking with his mental game. Either way, Kemp needs to swing at strikes and lay off bad pitches. That adjustment turns him from doing what he was doing this year into an MVP candidate.

 

Anyways, there is so much wrong with him.
Pitch recognition, discipline, physical problems

Until he can hit the ball with backspin and authority to RCF I'm scared.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES HIM AMAZING! THE HRs TO RF! Launching HRs and booming doubles into the opposite field is his game. If he can't do it we should be sobbing because he'll be rendered worthless.

 

Is there a stat that measures bat speed? If not then WTF are you waiting for VRP, this could be your big break. I would love to know the average bat speed of players.

 

Listen new guy, you just need to relax and sip on a juice box. I have a few sources that say he was looking good in BP in ALBQ while all you've heard is Vassegh say "there's been some frustrating faces". That HR he hit off Gallardo was a bomb, and the one off Harvey was oppo at Citi Field. Kemp needs better pitch recognition and it'll work itself out from there.

 

Fuck your sources, the only one of us that has sources is Chris. lol

 

That's right the Gallardo ball was a bomb. He guessed right on a pitch and got good wood on it (calm down )
But his "oppo bomb"...he didn't hit it with much authority.

I think his natural brute strength is in tact. I just don't know where the balanced inside out swing went.

 

For all you know, I could be one of Chris' sources. #mindblown

 

Sometimes you gotta give credit where credit is due. Let's just hope he can hit.

 

lol Credit for what?
I'd love to give him credit.
But his swings aren't encouraging. His 14 game hit streak were all top spin singles to LF.
Out of pure probability and raw talent he ran into a couple. But he's been dismal.
Until the best inside out power stroke in baseball resurfaces it will be a struggle for him

 

Maybe if he washes that dirt off the shoulder of his uniform it might help. Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

 

I hate you.

 

Just like Jay said, "you gotta get, that, dirt off your shoulder."

And he's a pimp.

 

He's also a known liar.



So he's prob lying about being a pimp.
