Kyle SKOwarber Hulking Thread of Sploogepower

[Brownie]

I know the joke is SKOwarber, but no one else thinks that picture of SKO is a young Fork?

I've only been to Iowa to buy beer when I was in Quincy, I swear.

Why would you drive an hour to Iowa for an out-of-state beer purchase when the Hannibal, MO of Mark Twain fame was just a 5 minute drive away?

Fork'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before he recognizes Missourah.

There were also drinking age issues involved.

You were too old to drink in Missouri?

Schwarber unleashed his dong muscle against the Cedar Rapids Kernels in his second game with Kane County tonight.

In other news, internets suggest that his nickname is "Meatball". We might be hard pressed to improve upon that.

Yesterday 2 for 4 with a HR, a SB (A STOLEN BASE!!!), and threw out two base stealers while behind the plate.

Dong Band, engage.

His current coach doesn't necessarily think he needs to change positions.

Spoiler Alert: He's amazing.

Spoiler Alert: He's amazing.

In his 18 games at Boise last year, Kris Bryant hit .354/.416/.692, which was awesome. Again, through 12 games at Boise and Kane County, Schwarber is hitting .524/.580/1.095.

Whoa.

Spoiler Alert: He's amazing.

Schwarber has an incredible 11 extra-base hits in those 12 games (and 42 at bats). More than a quarter of the time Schwarber's plate appearance ends in an out or a ball in play, it goes for extra bases.

22% of the time by the time he steps to the plate he's more than 50% of the way toward home plate already. That is absolutely staggering.

100% of the time by the time he steps to the plate he's more than 109% of the way toward averaging a base already.  That is absolutely staggering.

For posterity.

Thank God the Cubs did all that tanking last season so they could get the fourth pick in a three-player draft (if that).   

FYEG!
