  1. Woah, dialed up 97 on the black to get him. Nice.
  2. Burke really nibbling but so far it's working.
  3. damn he did and he took it, good take. and just got a piece of that one, come on get out of this.
  4. bury something off speed he'll strike out.
  5. Can we try and hold the runners on a bit better? FFS
  6. Oof, that wasn't even close. Can't blame the batter for that HBP.
  7. Lotta junk from this guy. Might take a time through the lineup to get on him.
  8. That "cutter" acts like a changeup. Huh. Solid pitch to get Chase there.
  9. the house i'm betting on the white sox
  10. I mean it's just bad process. I'd rather go spend 600K on a new field for our Latin operations or some s%*#.
  11. Sosa should be batting 6th but whatever. Win 2/3.
  12. It's important to remember he was also the GM last year...
  13. Clearly the problem is his adoption parents abandoned him.
  14. That was certainly my hope. It...was hopeful. He probably can play SS as a backup and maybe CF but he was horrific in the corners and his bat stunk too. He might just be a AAAA guy. I dunno might as well just let him get regular experience down in AAA, he's still got a couple years of development in house even as a fast rising college pick before you can really say what he is. It's probably nothing but no rush to get him back up given current health of roster.
  15. It would be really nice if we hit on both Montgomerys and they can provide 50 HR a year and 100 XBH. We have some table setters and lineup movers, need some boppers.
  16. I sorta want to like this post but at the same time we're still playing like 32% ball and we don't really have any "damn good players". We have a couple guys who might be pretty damn good eventually but for now the best we can really say is we might have some solid regulars. Crochett was a damn good player. Smith is for now a solid 3rd starter. That's what I'm saying.
  17. That sucks for him even if it doesn't really matter to the team. Bummer.
  18. He's always been this odd mix of stats + the one time in person he saw a guy. That's his entire schtick. I like that he puts out a lot of content, quite a bit of it free, but he's just one voice in a big industry.
  19. he's a 1.5 WAR vet on a 3 WAR vet contract -- we'll be lucky to get a warm body in A ball and a semi prospect in AA. That said, I hope he gets hotter than s%*#.
  20. Yea this was just a fluke, in wet conditions anything can happen.
  21. It still counts but he got off to such a horrible start that even being above league average with his xwOBA for about a month still has him below average overall. He keeps this level of play up however and he'll have a really fine season: bonehead mistakes can be cleaned up hitting the ball hard and playing a decent overall 2B is a solid floor.
