been saying it for weeks. he's a slug. he's hit well so far but he runs like a 36 year old with a bad core. go figure.

I've love to ask Hahn WTF they thought they saw in Reed. He is what we thought he is.

he just missed it. darn.

also the last year the 50 year old Granderson could catch up to 96mph.

lol Nova making a little history first complete game with no walks since Chris Sale in 2014.

and that's why you shift.

if only we could play the marlins rest of the way we might win 85.

he's our opener next year it makes too much fucking sense not to do it. Let him come in at 96 with that running fastball and let him get 6-9 outs before he tires.

Damn covey just ace the dude.

@mqr -- on this board? You'll find someone arguing RBI % as a critical All-Star stat. So why not "learning to win together". In baseball. Imagine that. This isn't a 5 man lineup learning to play off Jordan it's 9 guys going up there with a job to do individually and one guy on the mound doing his. But some people think it's like soccer or basketball.

Most these leagues end what, in a few weeks? Approaching the end of the season I'd suspect for many of the affiliates.

I wouldn't take anything from spring training either way. He shouldn't be in Charlotte even if he has an ERA of a billion in spring training. It's practice. Now, if he comes out and shits the bed in his first 5 starts maybe you consider sending him down.

pretty impressive database feature. mods are doing a great job thanks guys.

clearly a subconscious act!

I'd like to see them use an opener for him. That way he can make 30 starts but only pitch about 140 innings. Covey wouldn't be my first choice but we'll see how things go down.

Yea I was 24 and at my first "real job". I didn't want to ruffle any feathers so I just had the game on on my headphones while doing admin stuff. My colleague who was much more senior basically said "fuck it you're the IT guy put it on in the conference room we'll all watch the end". And we did, fun times. My dad was really sick at the time (RIP dad) and that memory gives me a lot of joy in what was otherwise a really bad few years.

lol true.

lol that's a bad look. I'm fine with the netting but that looks like some jankey ass shit.

Def will never forget where I was that day. Hard to believe it's been a decade. Mercy.

yes the losing is penance for being bad fans. I sweat Greg are you sure you're not Ken Tremendous just pulling one of the ultimate long cons in the history of literature and culture? Like this is some deep undercover shit.

because a) teams realize they can eat the contract if it comes to it and b) because that's the only way you add top end talent to your rotation.

totally, people put way too much into it for the most part.

lmao you gotta respekt it. Man, Maureen made a real nice spread Cole slaw, kabobs, noodles and deviled eggs I feel like The Fridge when he met Reagan Filet mignon, baked potato, sour cream and bacon I haven't felt this way since Superbowl Twenty

Lefty swings are inherently more aesthetic for some reason and Yoan's channels Griffey. I love it. TA with the flip is nice, but Yoan with the saunter and drop pimp walk works too.
