Did he just have a magic weekend or did he read the scouting report for once?

Last night seemed like the same song and dance all season.

Everyone can have a bad night/weekend. Look at Wyatt Hensler last weekend (he was a giant 0fer). If he goes 0fer this weekend, maybe we have a conversation then, but I think he's earned some reprieve for the time being.

Edit: just wanted to add that I admit I have been one of the biggest complainers about Bindy playing this season.

We are getting production from other kids now. Look no further than Sorrell and Henseler. Sorrell had the walk off in game 1 then followed that up with 0-4 3k's. Lost in Saturdays drama was Henseler going 0-6 3k's leaving a bunch of runners on bases.
Binderup coming around we now need Kash back at his expected production. George is starting to produce lately.

put Cash back in just for defense now that he is healthy.

Binderup had a great weekend. But I still think that a healthy Kash is more consistent at the plate and far less error prone in the field.

If we can get Kash and Sorrell fully healthy and able to play in the field, I think that allows for the best iteration of our lineup.

LaViollete
Hensler
Sorrell
Bear
Kent
Schott
Kash
Royo

I like Royo at 2B and we don't really have another option there. I hope the coaches work with him (similar to what they did with Bindy). He has had some really bad PAs lately, swinging at some really bad pitches. I hope he can work through that....

Baseball is so much more a game of averages than other sports. That's why we play so many games. You can't isolate one game and say "that's typical"; you have to have more data and look for patterns.

You're looking at one game out of the last five. He was great in four of them. Don't go jumping to conclusions.

I thought jumping to conclusions was the Texags poster motto.

When Kash can play 1st there's 0% chance Bindy should be left at 1B. He's a major liability over there. Hopefully Sorrell can play LF soon than Bindy/Schott can DH.

Unfortunately you're looking at 4 games out of the last 30. What happened in the other 26 is probably typical

Binderups night at the plate didn't look like anything to be concerned about.

I still hope that we can get Sorrell and Kash healthy enough to play the field soon, in which case, I think Binderup should mostly DH, platooning with Schott, although I might drop him in at first to spell Kash every now and then (to keep Binderup in the groove at the plate as much as anything).

Just worried about Binderups defense at 1B. He will cost this team games playing over there and honestly continuing to throw someone out there when they clearly can't play the position well will hurt this team mentally.

They have to get Sorrell healthy to play OF and if Earley wants to DH Bindy at that point then go for it.

He's played appreciable time in 18 games, not 30. Half of those games were at the beginning of the season. He's played 9 since he came into the regular lineup again. Since that time, he's batted .250 (not excellent, but also not terrible) with 5 walks and totaled 15 RBI.

I'm not saying the trend will continue, but I'm tired of seeing yet another thread to pile on a guy who had one bad night after a good week and who seems to be improving. Baseball is just like that sometimes.

You get the point though. Last weekend was probably an outlier when you look at the rest of this season.

I don't think it's piling on, moreso discussion on what the lineup looks like if Cash is healthy. Until Sorrell can go in the OF you have to pick one of the two

I would not brush away Bindy's batting from Thu onward as "just an outlier".

The coaches have worked with him to change his stance and how tall he stands in the box (now starts w more knee bend). It is paying off.

If you want to look at the patterns, it shows that he's been good in only 4 games and horrible in way more games than that. According to his patterns, yesterday was more of his norm. But, I still hope he can change that narrative and become a viable DH or pinch hitter when Kash comes back.

I would think that the radical change to his batting stance might indicate that prior results are not going to be a perfect indicator of future performance. Maybe this weekend was an aberration, but it's not like all other factors remained unchanged. We've seen it happen before (I seem to recall Jonathan Moroney getting glasses mid season and resulting in a major change of direction statistically).

No one knows what is going to happen with his batting going forward. Let's see how it plays out.

His defense though is known and this team will benefit with a fully healthy Kash playing 1st.

Baseball is a game that tracks stats religiously which usually are more indicative of likely performance against similarly talented teams. But not all teams can be similarly talented…
