So I see unrealistic trade proposal season is back and crazier than ever

I believe 21 of his last 28 pitches were strikes as he retired last ten he faced

Another terrible start for Hansen. He just can't get things going in the right direction this year. Still have my doubts he's completely healthy. If not, junior year at Oklahoma Hansen is back. so far, 2 IP with 4 runs, 6 walks 24 of 55 pitches for strikes

Also facing two LHP vs Mariners could be a reason Engel lives on

Small sample size but his curve was more controlled last night

If he finishes strong, he'll move up a lot. The Futures Game definitely didn't hurt his reputation

It's impressive considering no Hansen, Rutherford, Adolfo, Basabe or Collins as well as Burger being hurt. Still amazes me that Cease isn't a top 30 guy.

You know he would love a former college QB

We all know Kenny wanted Kyler Murray

Eloy oppo dong

Exactly what it reminded me of.

Rutherford hit in the right hand with a pitch. Staying in the game but definitely swollen. I'm sure XRays to come

So refs kicks someone out of match and then same wrestler comes back out to interfere and ref allows interference and match is over soon after?

Heck I'm probably the low man on this board when it comes to Madrigal and the slow start isn't shocking. Wouldn't surprise me if he's pressing now, as between the CWS and his first week in professional baseball, I doubt he's ever had 1 hit in like 25 at bats.

Higher defensive fWAR this year than Inciarte, Trout and Betts. Shocking to see, but just another cap on their incredible ability to develop players.

And now that DH somehow has turned into a super defender.

Dumbest finish ever to a main event?

I hope Avi plays his way into the plans.

Knock on wood, but even his walks have been pretty close. I know we try to forget, but when he was walking guys earlier in the year, he literally was missing by feet and not inches.

The first of the 5 starts I mentioned was one of those games where there was no reason he was still in for the 8th inning, and he went from 7-2 to 7-4. Outside of the first inning, he's been superb of late with his control.

Giolito has actually been pretty damn great in 4 of his last 5 starts.

Swing reminds me a little of Willie Harris

Off 102

Basabe showing off huge arm

This game sorta, kinda rules
