Dumb stupid twitter

Sounds like it could be worse. Trying to think of what the worst that that could be is. Rib?

With a back injury I’d imaging we’d be getting some ‘scary scene’ type stuff if it was anything serious

Call him hide n seek cuz ready or not here he comes

The scholarship thing is news to me, so I take that back

Maybe this is just me, but going to the minors on 22nd round money seems really irresponsible.

They had a core that was ready to compete and those guys weren’t ready to contribute. They’re going to need to do the same thing again. The Tatis one is the only one you can’t defend. If samardzija was the guy you thought you were getting no one would care that Marcus semien figured it out four years later. I’m also not sure why you’re sweating Frankie Montana who is on his third team before he figured it out. They need to be better at pro scouting, not scared to move mid tier prospects.

Is this a sincere take? Because it’s a doozy.

Agreed. And it’s gotta be a guy in at least AA

Pretty close to twenty when you consider it’s only 2.5 years

Disagree. I'm trying to win the game, I don't care one bit about your no hitter.

Those trades don't happen and you're still looking at a team trying to make do with Sale, while starting guys like JB shuck in the outfield. No use crying over spilled milk. All this line of thinking does is paralyze you when it's time to make moves.

Just making sure there wasn't more to the quote than I saw. But, man, bad tactics is one thing, throwing your guys under the bus instead of owning your mistake is an absolute no go.

You mean cordell?

If you don't you might have 2 runs on the board.

Following up on this, Ricky is 5th in Rate+, which I assume, is an adjustment of his Sac Bunt percentage, which is 2.1%. In raw percentage he trails only.......Terry Francona?? He has 11 attempts to Tito's 13. Alex Cora is up there too, which is surprising as well. I Imagine this doesn't count bunts that fail to be put down.

On the bright side Mike Matheny won multiple divisions and an NL pennant and Ned Yost is a world series champion so it's not like it's impossible to win with a bumbling idiot in the dugout

It's honestly astonishing that his default setting, in almost any situation when runners get on, is to bunt. You have a decent lineup dude, let them swing. They Sox have to be leading the league in bunts attempted by a wide margin. Is there anywhere that shows that info?

Well that was quick

They're going to Kansas city in two days...

Bummer certainly takes the sting out of Fry being such a bum

I used to go the College World Series every year as a youngin and he is the absolute only guy I remember. He put on a show in beeps.

Kurt Suzuki is the absolute last person I want to see right now

...have what it takes to get over .500 Sorry I had to.

Went to use the little boys room and the Nats bullpen strikes. Also as bad as Castillo has been, he has come up real big quite a few times
