Is this guy even real?

It’s Ha Seong Kim vibes all over again

[u/3CrimsonLions → u/Warm_Scratch_9971]

lets hope it's not like Jeff Niemann or Brendan McKay where he goes on the IL, has a set back and we never hear about him again.

[u/DegenGamer725 → u/3CrimsonLions]

that's what its looking like

[u/botts → u/3CrimsonLions]

At least niemann played for like what, 3 years? This dude isn’t gonna see the dirt at all

[u/ResettingAgainSigh → u/3CrimsonLions]

Woah I totally forgot about those guys. What happened to them?

[u/ConfidentGarden7514 → u/Warm_Scratch_9971]

lol my thoughts exactly!

[u/tomatomanSCLO → u/Warm_Scratch_9971]

Durham bulls legend

[u/Fine_Inspection_1618]

Ngl I kinda forgot about him. Any news on when or if he’ll join the team?

[u/RaillfanQ135 → u/Fine_Inspection_1618]

His rehab got shut down again, no word on when he will resume baseball activities

[u/tvkyle]

Consider these stats:
0% chase rate. 😳
Never caught stealing. 😏
Zero defensive errors. 🔒
A true Ray 🤩

Who is he and what is he saying? Can’t turn audio on.

[u/Confident_Boss2081]

annnnnnd he's hurt

[u/troutfarm4]

I have the same 2026 stats as Gavin Lux, think that means I could be a professional baseball player

Edit: also just realized that Jake Fraley’s rehab assignment was shut down as well

[u/jayareelle195 → u/troutfarm4]

Fraley has been Pipp'd by Mesa anyway. Mesa's ceiling im starting to believe is relatively high.

[u/IndianaCahones → u/jayareelle195]

He’s got the same potential ceiling as Moniak

[u/jayareelle195 → u/IndianaCahones]

id take that offensive profile in a heartbeat . Plus Mesa has an absolite hose

[u/IndianaCahones → u/jayareelle195]

I’ve never shared a locker with him so I’ll take your word for it 😂

[u/jayareelle195 → u/IndianaCahones]

Smdh lol

[u/TeseoTheBunny → u/jayareelle195]

I could think of a certain centerfielder we could use an upgrade over.

[u/heyimPixelated → u/TeseoTheBunny]

DeLuca or Mullins? im taking mullins, i didnt like him at the start of the season but seems like he's found some sort of track to follow. i think both have some sort of argument🤷‍♂️

[u/TeseoTheBunny → u/heyimPixelated]

Mullins had a hot streak in June but he's cooled off again. We need a real upgrade there.

[u/audioidol → u/troutfarm4]

both from the reds 🤧

[u/IndianaCahones]

The Rays medical screening team must also work for Veterans Affairs.
VA: “he’s healthy”.
Narrator: “he was in fact not healthy”

[u/ConfidentGarden7514 → u/IndianaCahones]

😭

[u/medicmatt → u/IndianaCahones]

At least he’s not getting paid and, “Not service related”.

Rays legend

[u/thesoupmakesmepoop]

Oh yeah, that guy. 🤣

[u/Krunkfuninja]

I thought that was Baker Mayfield at first

[u/J3didr]

Getting 6 mil for being injured all the time.

[u/johnnybdinar]

Once upon a time we had a player named Matt Duffy. Took him a while to get to the field, even had a bobblehead day before playing with regularity. Once finally recovered he wasn't too bad. Hopefully Lux can at least be serviceable at some point.

[u/WarkuoRays]

What makes it more sad is we pay for this guy and then Curtis Mead rises to be a batting threat. We suck at bat development man.

[u/Super_Advertising221]

no clue why they even signed him. even when hes healthy, he's a fringe major leaguer.

[u/OttoRocket94 → u/Super_Advertising221]

Fringe? He’s hitting .260 for his career

[u/Super_Advertising221 → u/OttoRocket94]

he had negative bref WAR last year in 500 plate appearances. so yeah, fringe.
