  1. I'm gonna go with a guy that has had shoulder surgery is just hurt and/or has too much inflation to pitch right now. Sucks.
  2. twins acting like this is there world series.
  3. I don't want to watch TMR's game on Youtube. I want to watch it on MLB.tv where I can change audio, use the replay features, etc. Thankfully T-Mobile gives me MLB.tv free, otherwise I'd really be bitching.
  4. yea what a great find. Feels like we robbed the Guardians.
  5. It should be really good. I had no idea how smooth Hernandez is at 2B. He is a great athlete, even at 31.
  6. Those are all good points. Getting Ceasar makes this "work" and the innings will be important that Kimbrel does pitch, hopefully very well. The 3rd point is tough. Sometimes you have a declining asset or one that is stagnating and you have to cut bait. There is a decent chance that Madrigal is just an injury prone 3 WAR player. That's not that valuable and if he has a setback with the hammy this winter (a decent chance) then he's really lost value headed into next year. So hey, you make decisions and hope they work out. It's not easy.
  7. That's fine but I'm having some 2nd thoughts on using Madrigal to acquire a guy who is going to pitch maybe 10 innings in the playoffs and maybe 60 overall in Chicago. I'm not sure that's the best use of a trade chip. I'm excited about using Kimbrel in the playoffs, but I'm not thrilled that's all Chicago could turn Madrigal into.
  8. These MLB.tv blackouts are an annoying part of being a good team.
  9. Well shit, there goes that idea. I'd just be very cautious with Robert. Put him in bubble wrap until he gets 20 games under his belt and tell him no stealing and try not to play him back to back for a minute.
  10. Wonder if Billy will get the start in CF tonight.
  11. Thanks @Balta1701 nice to have this in one thread. And thanks @caulfield12 for immediately quoting the long OP unnecessarily. I really have no idea what will happen down the stretch with the Stros and Rays. Sox just need to try and get 95 wins and see where that stacks up. They can do that, that would be just a few over .500 rest of the way. Rather interestingly the Sox have taken a big jump in WS odds on FG the last week. https://www.fangraphs.com/standings/playoff-odds 2nd best odds behind the Dodgers now to win it all.
  12. Dallas inspires no confidence gotta score again to win.
