August 5, 20213 yr His strikeout rate gone down at all? Obviously he can still hit the long all but it was horrendous when he first came up. His power is def legit though.

August 6, 20213 yr Author I was talking to my father about this yesterday. Conine excites me with the homers but his strikeouts are an issue and he will have to improve on that or the best he'll end up being is a pinch hitter in MLB when you need a homer in the 9th or something.

Yep. I'm not trying to be a negative newt about the whiffs but if it's that high in AA ball then it'll be worse at the MLB level for sure. I want Niner 2.0 to succeed as a Marlin as much as any Marlin fan would.

Wait you found @Jack and didn't tell us?! What the hell, man, is he OK?!
August 6, 20213 yr Author I wasn't calling you negative though I see why you would have thought that @marlinsmaniac I was saying it is a negative about him. I agree with you, his strikeouts are a problem.
