Farq this bullpen. But we knew it would be bad

QUOTE (wrathofhahn @ Apr 1, 2018 -> 08:14 PM)Kahnle and Drob are not off to good starts.
6ER in 4IP.
Robertson always ran hot and cold can’t really be upset about him being gone. Kahnle always looked like a one year wonder but I don’t know if he’ll ever be closer material. Eaton is red hot to start this season.
-
They need 2 new tv guys.
-
Phew that inning could’ve gotten really bad fast. Looked a little out of sync with mechanics that inning.

I don't think you can extrapolate much from the low minors with Hansen. I wouldn't put too much emphasis on good stats below AA. You always want to see it but I don't know if it's all that predictive. A lot of players at those levels won't ever see the majors or even high minors. With his cup of coffee in AA and spring training this year he belongs in AA the whole season possibly with a late season promotion to AAA unless he's dominating the competition. In that case probably AAA a few months in and a late season call up.

Is Minaya hurt? Just got pulled mid inning
-
Davidson 3rd HR....Absolutely locked in
-
Hard to not get excited about this offense and how it is going to look in a year with how bad it has been for so long. And the thought we could potentially add Machado on top of Eloy and Robert. In no particular batting order.
2B - Moncada
SS - Anderson
3B - Machado
1B - Abreu
DH - Davidson
RF - Eloy
CF - Robert
LF - Avi
C - Castillo/Zavala or Collins
Bench
Delmonico
Engel
Sanchez
L Garcia
That lineup looks so stacked and deep.
-
Anderson scores from 1st on a single? Lol awesome
-
Davidson needs to play 3B again soon. Imagine adding Eloy to this lineup for Sanchez and Robert for Engel. Crazy. Don't know if Zavala or Collins would be upgrades on Castillo (probably not). Sanchez, Leury, and Engel make this team so versatile off the bench too.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 04:17 PM)Tatis Jr who?
If we were facing a real offense today he would've been a goner by the 2nd or 3rd inning.
-
ok good got through 6, take him out now.
-
QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 04:00 PM)Shields in line for the win. Never thought this would happen after that first inning.
Amazingly he has held it together with his 88 mph fastball. But KC's offense is pretty bad.
-
This team is going to be beastly once we get everyone up. 2019 and 2020 should be really fun.
-
If Shields lets anyone to or past 2nd base get someone up
-
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 03:54 PM)It is raining and 45 degrees in one of the better pitcher’s parks in baseball, and there are 6 long balls. Looks like the balls are juiced this year.
Heh, whatever you say. I'm not complaining.
-
Wow KC is really really bad.
-
Need a quick hook with Shields now that it's a game again
-
QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 03:12 PM)Just gonna throw this out there, i'm not sure losing the first four innings of opening day with james shields on the mound in kansas city is a doomsday indicator.
Doesn't change the fact he's a gas can and needs to go. As many have been saying since he was acquired. KC's offense is not even good.
-
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 02:42 PM)I think Rodon first.
What is his ETA? I had pretty much written him off until mid season, but hopefully we don't have to endure that much of Shields.
-
QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 02:38 PM)he's not going to do anything but lose games and tax the pen. Cut bait on this guy. He f***ing sucks. Literally could not do worse giving the starts to Dylan Covey.
Santiago should end up in the rotation next unless they bring Kopech up early.
-
Never knew what they saw in this gas can. It's not like this was the only guy they could've signed or traded for at the time. He was total garbage then too.
-
James Shields folks. The guy who gave up the home run to Bartolo Colon right before we traded a future all-star for him.
-
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 29, 2018 -> 07:41 AM)Hansen has already hit AA. There are guys who go straight from AA to the majors, but even if he spends half a season at AA, two months at AAA, and September call up... that isn't crazy at all.
It’s obvious from the spring he’s not ready. Kopech is going to end up spending 1.5 seasons between AA and AAA and he’s shown much more. I’m not sure what you have seen from Hansen over the last month that would make you think he is going to be pushed faster than Kopech.
Sox send Frazier/DRob/Kahnle to NY ~ Rutherford/Clarkin/Clippard/Polo

Relievers don’t have good trade value unless they are elite closers or elite setup men. It didn’t help that the A’s killed the market value for relief talent not long before that trade happened.
