This is my first time watching Ixan (E-Sean) Henderson for any extended period. He’s struggling and I’m waiting for his really good stuff.
Good curve, 91 or so fastball. Struggling with control as he loads the bases with about five walks.

If people don't like Jordan Walker's pitch recognition, they don't want to watch Chase Davis at bat.
He needs major help with his "pretty swing" that doesn't make much contact.
Good OF tho.
