Mason Adams + Hays or Pereira + Boston Smith in the minors makes this team better than Castillo + Doyle for this season and future seasons. This isn’t that difficult to understand.

His greatest supporter is on this site, but he has “strangely” been very silent lately.

LOL, awful.

Yikes.

You’re right. His issue right now is walks and homers but he manages to limit the damage. But he’s also going to improve with experience, while Castillo will be 34 next year.

I said this before Getz traded him. Should have just given him the rotation shot. Adams’ ERA is now down to 3.38. Six years of Adams making nothing gone for a CF that can’t hit. And we get to watch an expensive Castillo in the rotation for the rest of this season and next season instead. Absolutely brutal two trades.

Apparently the Cubs don’t have any issues beating the Pirates.

Will be interesting to see what the deadline moves will cost this team in the long run by losing years of control over Mason Adams and Boston Smith. Right now, it sure doesn’t seem like Castillo or Doyle will be very impactful for next season, or additional seasons for Doyle if he isn’t non-tendered.

I guess one could argue that it takes a batter out of their comfort zone of the way they are used to hitting, but I can’t say I agree with this strategy at all. We’ve seen too many teams (and within our own division) employ this approach with great success.

Magic bullets. 🤣

“f*** you, Jobu! I do it myself…”

These are the real keys… 1.) No more corpseball. 2.) Thorpe or Sandlin pitching well in the majors, cuz Castillo is cooked. 3.) Ensuring that playoff tickets are 100% refundable by Jerry and company.

His wand must be in the shop for repair.

But what about Ryan Fuller?

0 for 4, one strikeout. He’s broken.

16-19 record since the trade deadline. That’s a 74 win pace over a full season. No gouda.

16-19 record since the trade deadline.

That is a good question, not that I’m sure it would’ve mattered.

Easily the worst series of the season. Only 5 total runs scored in a series against the Pirates at home, including a shutout, and they didn’t even face Skenes and Ashcraft. Outscored 15-5 in the series.

That’s barely a daily Ron-Roll. 🤣

That inning just confirmed it.

The Pirates are also hot because the Sox are keeping them hot. The Pirates are better at home than on the road.

I fell asleep to nightmares of corpseball and woke up to the same in real life.
