Dylan Cease = Javy Vazquez 

I once heard someone say that almost every scout that attended a Javy Vazquez start would say the same kinda thing....boy he's got good stuff...great stuff...terrific stuff...hey when did they score 6 runs off him??

If Cease finishes this season ok I'd totally sell him to some sucker GM that thinks he's turned a corner. 

So, next year's guaranteed rotation is Giolito and Keuchel, then an undependable Kopech, and we have two free agents after the year with Rodon and Lynn.

 

I don't see them moving Cease.

Exactly how I feel about Cease.   The stuff is out of this world, yet he can't avoid that meltdown inning.

Cease is unreliable, I'd like them to move him for someone more reliable.

Wow. Is this game as bad as the game-thread is making it sound? Or is this just typical game-thread misery enhanced by the losing streak?

Bad error led to 2 runs, otherwise Cease has been fine. So typical game thread misery.

Thank you. I checked the score after reading the thread. Was surprised it was actually a tie game based off the reactions here.

ERA+ of 110 in 2020, ERA+ of 105 coming into today in 2021. Someone who's young, affordable and above league average the last two years, I guess I don't see the impetus for us to move him at all.

Anyone who is willing to have a little fun fits well with Jason.  He has kind of a goofy personality, almost like he knows he is the luckiest guy on earth to be doing his job, so he lives it up every second.  A guy who is too serious or full of himself doesn't work with that.  Frank is Jason's equal for loving life.  This pair really could do this 150 times a year.

You nailed it - the two of them together sound like 2 people just playing with house money and having a blast. Guys that really appreciate how lucky and blessed they are to do what they do and they genuinely seem to just have dynamic chemistry.

These are the greatest takes of all.  I would like to move our players who suck for players who don't suck.

"Hey, Rick Hahn here.  I got some guys I am trying to unload...what have you got for me?"
