Harold's Leg Lift

I don't know what's better his curveball or his lettuce.

He will if Titleist keeps making the college baseballs.

Kopech getting lathered up.

Atta boy, Pauly.

because it was inside an imaginary box?

There's a saying for catchers. Present strikes and throw back balls. If they try to present every pitch as a strike the umpire will get angry.

Quality snot rocket from Crochet.

I gotta say all this Maldonado stuff is baffling me. I guess I don't see what everyone else is seeing.

The same could be said about Lopez. Hahn's obsession with the bullpen was odd to say the absolute least.

What I would do (what I would do) is fire Grifol around the all star break if not sooner and name LaRussa interim manager. I would then hire AJ to be asst manager or bench coach and let let him learn the league and a few things from LaRussa. Then after the season name AJ the manager and kick LaRussa back upstairs. That's what I would do (what I would do).

I think the plan is to get him closer to 100 innings.

Well Schultz is not going to take the ball every 5th day he's going to take the ball every 7 days. They're taking a college approach by making him a weekly starter. It's an interesting plan.

They had this low ball offer out to him for a while. I honestly can't believe no one would beat it and he finally caved.

I apologize I thought you were talking about Jake Cousins. It took everything I had not to call you a crazy person.

Come on now, my guy.

Morel just had another misplay at 3B. My kinda off the wall but not really prediction is the Sox trade Moncada to the Cubs.

Limiting innings/pitches has done a bang up job of keeping pitchers healthy. I'd ask you what the perfect amount is but no one knows that answer which means you sure as f*** don't know but that won't stop you from the scorching hot take that they're gonna "run him into the ground."

Possible 2nd round target.

Jesus fucking christ that's not what they're going to do. It's inevitable that he's going to need a dl stint or two due to soreness/tired arm so they're letting him go now and will keep evaluating him as the season goes on. These extereme hot takes are getting tiresome.

How long until LaRussa's title is changed to interim manager?

He has a strong arm and is decent defensively. He also really likes to strike out. Can't imagine he's not an upgrade over Perez or Robinson or likely Lee.

I wouldn't mind seeing them rough up Flaherty a bit today. He didn't want to sign here because he heard how bad the clubhouse was. Not too difficult to figure out who he heard that from.

Joey Bart DFA.

Pretty obvious the book on Lee is he can't hit a big league fastball. Shesh

and if he threw it home and the runner was safe DJ would have said he was too aggressive and he had an out at 3rd if he would have taken it. Sounds like DJ is in a mood. He should start posting here.
