Prior to their Buffalo sojourns, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and Teoscar Hernandez were sporting a wRC+ of 40 and 47, respectively. Furthermore, Gurriel Jr. was lacking confidence in his ability to make throws from the infield. Hernandez was, to be kind, an adventure in left field. His performance reminded me of a joke that can be applied to many players.
Q: What does Hernandez do when 100 balls are hit to him?
A: Catch-22
Summary
Gurriel Jr. has displayed better plate discipline since he returned from the land of Genesee Cream Ale.
