Javy doesn’t chase pitches… he conducts field research.

He might need to be investigated honestly

This has been the experience for nearly half a decade. He also somehow started the all star game last year.

Even when he’s been good this is the the Javy Báez experience

I was fully expecting somehow a homer on the last pitch 😂

Imagine being Skubal with a 0.69 ERA and 1-1, i mean 0.69 is a nice af era

He is the Styrofoam dome: not very effective against projectiles

Is it me or he’s lost some weight? Looking athletic

You could roll the ball to home plate and Javy Baez would swing

I know we all have that toxic trait of thinking some part of us could do what these guys do but I genuinely kinda do think I could lay off pitches Javy Baez swings at.

2026? drop that and just say « The Tigers Javy Experience »

We’re so back

Isn’t that basically his whole career except maybe the first half of 2025?
psykikk_streams
geeze. how come he still has a job at this level ? is he really THAT GOOD at all other aspects of the game ?
this is painful to watch

Don’t worry, there’ll be about 2 weeks of him raking and making incredible defensive plays and we’ll think he’s back

He’s got a hitch in his giddyup
dendenmoooshi
I like the idea of javy attempting an ABS challenge on any one of these
JimyFatBoy
I just wish he’d keep bat on his shoulder like every other at bat

Looks like he’s in midsession form already

I am baffled by Báez. Even if he were blind, how does he not expect the first three pitches to be way out of the zone?
GodOD400
I see the clip starts with a 1-0 count, I can only presume that there was a pitch clock violation on the pitcher.

Genuine question, how has he not made the adjustment to stop doing this? He should have a red light with two strikes that’s only lifted after he’s struck out looking 10 times in a row

I will never regret saying he was my favorite cub because his fielding was sincerely magical and his bat showed up in some awesome ways at times, but goddamn dude just stop sucking ffs
floyd_mongol
the tigers should put a shockcollar on javy and zap him everytime he swings at that down and away pitch. give him the hasan special.

The (insert year here) Javy Báez experience.

He’s been chasing that for years

On a brighter note, I love those Tigers jerseys.

Real talk. If this is me, I stop swinging entirely. I may luck into a walk before I hit the ball.

Why would you ever throw him a strike
