Agreed. I honestly don’t even know what the best move would be here. Since we won’t be competing any time soon, should we just let Grady ride it out? Will the young guys at least play hard for Grady?

I agree with this. The only problem is that it seems teams are too hesitant to give up positional prospects now. They might be better off trying to build a top 5 rotation. I’m not sure where the offense would come from, but it might be the best chance at competing.

They have two 3-game winning streaks and one 4-game winning streak.

Wouldn’t your point make more sense if Getz was the one who hired himself? JR is the idiot who hired Getz in the first place, and now Getz is at least trying to do things correctly by hiring from the outside.

First time he’s ever faced adversity in his baseball career. We’ll see what he’s made of. If he turns it around next year, this year will be looked at as a blessing. Obviously a big if, though.

Is Dalquist becoming a decent bullpen guy?

Good summary. Thank you. P.S. Bergolla was the Tanner Banks trade, not the Fedde trade.

Quero with his second AAA home run. https://x.com/notcease/status/1818802603980968243?s=46&t=hCMAMLMYHQoJ8GPQos5khQ

I’ll make sure to count. Should be able to get it done using fingers and toes.

Not getting into shape could be a reason why somebody is injury prone.

Getting this started early. I’m going to end the losing streak with this game thread. I’ll be at the game. First game I’ve been to since game 4 against Houston in 2021. I believe Thorpe is starting. Easy win. You’re welcome.

I feel like the only reason we won that day was because it was a double header. A lot of double headers are split. When’s the last time we played baseball on a specific day and didn’t lose that day?

Same here. When it freezes, I immediately jump to Rosenthal’s and Passan’s account on X to see what happened. Then I’m disappointed when there’s nothing. Then I realize I’m actually relieved because the return will be subpar. I’ve done that 17 times so far today.

There probably are teams willing to buy low. We just can’t afford to sell low.

Who are you referring to? Ripken and Palmeiro?
