Zavala is the worst catcher I've ever seen.

Ryan Pace, frankly, was not having a good offseason before he drafted Justin Fields, that bought him a great deal of (well-deserved) slack
Teven Jenkins may very well may go on to have a solid NFL career but the way they've handled this reeks of incompetence. Fields notwithstanding, whenever Pace trades up to take someone you should be suspicious of him at this point, because he's probably outsmarting himself again.

Lopez going back to Charlotte once Rodon comes back, yes?

Taking a hard line drive to the face is a pitcher's worst nightmare

Tons. He always had the tools, but the mental mistakes are all but gone.
His stuff is electric. Up there with Dylan Cease and Michael Kopech. Just couldn't get out of his own head.
edit: for some reason I thought SS2K5 was replying to my post about Lopez

I've talked as much shit as anyone about Reynaldo Lopez but if he's legitimately turned it around, I'll be ecstatic

Is it just my eyes, or has Tim Anderson's defense improved drastically from a couple years ago
-
Tim is always talking about how he's looking to improve or add to his game, but I think the low walk rate is just who he is as a hitter. He's aggressive and he makes high contact, and he's done it over a long enough time that it's sustainable, but if he changed his approach and started taking more pitches it'd start messing with his DNA as a player. He's not, for example, Luis Robert, a guy who is still figuring it out.

This was kinda hard to choose but I went with Yermin Mercedes. Yes his run was a fluke at the end of the day, but it was a HUGE boost to the team after just having lost Eloy Jimenez for half the summer.
Kinda wanted to go with Rodon, but his case is more like "finally living up to his full capability that we all knew he had"

To be honest, I only saw it live and the replays they showed....however I have listened to Len Kasper's call with DJ chiming in the awesome "light it up" numerous times.
This still counts.

As exciting and dope as TA's walk-off was, this was just a regular season game. So maybe the most memorable *regular season* moment ever but the HRs in the World Series all rate above it by default. My vote was for Pods, *nobody* would've predicted that at the time

I think I am up to about 25 times 😂

Anderson's bat drop and lean when he hit that looked like a reverse Griffey
Didn't do the customary bat flip, instead he used Grandal's move, which looks just as cool

Every one of Michael Kopech's pitches is a strikeout pitch.
I love it when he throws his slider until the hitter gets 2 strikes, then gives them the 100 mph on the inside corner and the hitter just freezes in place helplessly.

From a deflating loss to a exhilarating win...what a great game.
And yeah, we cannot have Hendriks pitching the 9th, especially not in the playoffs, we have options, Kimbrel or Kopech.
it's nice that we have *so many* options in the bullpen that we can actually talk about the All-Star closer maybe not being the best option lol
(low key he does seem to blow a lot of saves for a shutdown closer but maybe I just think that cuz I'm irritated about it having just happened)

This is a really good write-up
(Chrystal O'Keefe is a really good Sox Twitter follow too)

Please stay on the field, and don’t chase bad pitches. Welcome back!
Just before he got hurt he was doing so good at this, his scouting report was exploiting him and he was just letting them throw him trash pitches and walk him

The demise of USA men's basketball has been greatly exaggerated.
It's funny how high the standards are for them. They can't just win a gold, they have to absolutely dog walk every opponent all the way through by at least 30 points or it doesn't really count.

I would be more than willing to let that go if that's the only one that got by him
