Last two games(one being against David Price):

6/6, double, triple, 3 home runs, 2 walks, and only 3 RBI's(wtf lol). Rays also walked him(4 pitch walk) yesterday when he was just a single short of the cycle.

His stats for the season are also great, over .500 OBP. Looking more and more like last year wasn't a fluke and he's a legit star.

I just don't understand how someone who was in the league for awhile just comes out of nowhere to this level in the non steroid era of baseball. Anyone ever heard him say what changed to make him become superhuman virtually overnight?

Completely changed his swing and was given an opportunity to be a full time player.

it's whatever. he wouldn't be the only one doing it.

does the MLB test for HGH? after the sudden change in performance, it wouldn't surprise me if he's been tested multiple times.

he's clearly the best player in baseball at the moment though. that's all that matters.

No, none of the major sports do it because it has to be done via blood tests and the unions won't let that happen. I think the are implementing it in the minor leagues which would be a first. HGH is incredibly effective especially in aging players but as of now, you can't be busted for it in any sport.

Then I wouldn't be surprised at all if a lot of the big time hitters are using it.

    • This is a toughie because I wonder what a guy like Canales thinks about redemption stories for addiction issues. Also, I think this is a case of 1 player getting caught, and not being naive enough to think this isn't more common in college than we think. I'd toss a 3rd rounder out there. 2026 is essentially a redshirt season regardless, so he's not taking over for any NFL QB next year. Best case, he's ready to go in 2027 if we pass on Bryce's extension. Worst case, he's our future backup QB2. Kid has the tools to be an NFL QB. I do think we could somehow land a '26 3rd round pick back in a trade. Our past years' third rounders are: Brazzell Princely Wallace DJ Johnson Matt Corral All this to say, I could see a team like the Jets going w/ a 2nd. They have three FRPs next year.
    • Alright man! We're here for it! Just glad you're keeping the doors open!
    • I think we've seen improvement in Bryce's performance. It still isn't up to world beater status, but in Canales defense, he can say that the limitations of the player were hit. I think he survives that even if Bryce doesn't. Still, I think it's a 50/50 shot for Bryce to make it. QB is one of the toughest jobs to do in the sports world, if not the most, so the failure rate is really high, no matter the pedigree. Heck, Archie Manning gets a lot of credit as a great QB but anyone who saw his career in motion knows he wasn't really that good and he was surrounded by bottom of the bowl players. He did get it figured out with his sons, though. That grandson... maybe.
