If bwj doesn't have his own thread yet, it's past due. We need a place to memorialize everything he is doing in the moment.

Yes. Good call.

This thread is long overdue. And the play he made last night was better.

The amazing thing about Bobby is he just improves. Alot of guys storm into the league and have early success and then falter or don't get any better. See Vlad Jr. Correa just maintained or got a little worse.

His first year he was ass at defense. Fixed it.
His second year he struggled high in the zone. Fixed it.

What's he going to fix next? Not a ton to fix. He could probably chase a bit less and improve his stolen base process. My guess next year at this time he will be better at both.

Been an amazing journey to watch. The kid must love the game and when you have talent to go along with it you are pure danger to the league.
