No starter has gone more than 5 1/3 innings in any game thus far and our entire staff has been working behind in the count on almost every hitter. Those two facts are a recipe for disaster and I'd have to say Ethan Katz grades out an F so far after 4 games.

This team misses Coop. Pitching is a disaster now. Time to bring him back now or this season may fail to reach it's potential.

I wonder if we could bring Coop back. Someone needs to fix this bullpen.

He could go 6 for 6 in an extra inning game (or a game we put up 20+runs)

Too bad Hawk doesn't still do games......can you imagine his excitement about Yermin-mania?

Can we lock up Yermin to an extension tomorrow? He's the future of this franchise!

We can trade Vaughn......we found our long term DH! (kidding....sort of)

I think Madrigal is the perfect compliment to our lineup. Sure, most of his hits will be singles. But many of those will turn solo homers by others into 2 run shots.

What about Puig?

Aren’t Cespedes and Vera already stateside? I thought Cespedes was in camp already?

Vegas will definitely get a team. After seeing the tremendous success of the Golden Knights and the Raiders, MLB wants a piece of the action.

Won’t we have problems with the 40 man roster if we add all of them?

Wouldn’t it be a hoot if Rodon got his shit together this year and out pitched Gio, Dallas, and Lance? If he could win the Cy Young this year, I doubt anyone would be complainig about the 3 million dollar signing!

Im glad we weren’t in the bidding for him

The Lynn trade wasn’t happening without Dunning and this added to our depth. Lynn should be good for 200 IP while Dunning would have likely done only 140 or so.

Its about Corbin Burnes

I don’t get why everyone seems intent on trading Madrigal. Granted, he doesn’t have power, but we need guys to get on base for the rest of our power hitters to drive home. He’ll hit .300 plus every year (maybe .320+), strike out little, and provide good defense. We need players like this to play this role and trading him would leave a hole in our lineup.

I would not do this trade. I think ReyLo has a chance to develop under Katz and serve as the teams long option in the pen if nothing else. He may or may not be useful in the long term but why trade him for someone who has definitely proven to be worthless?

As long as COViD doesn’t end this season prematurely, I like our chances to win a World Series!

If it’s not, I don’t understand this move at all.

I honestly don't see how you can have minor league baseball this season at all. The economics of the game don't work without ticket sales and concession revenues. Most teams will not be able to have this happen at any time in 2021. If we end up with MLB this summer, I think you'll have camps like last year and no AAA/AA/A action.

I was hoping for a long term deal to keep him on the southside for the next 5-8 years.

If we can resign Lynn, I think we did better (considering the prices paid). I know many may disagree, but I wouldn’t have traded Kopech straight up for Snell. I really think he’ll be strong this year and has a great future.

That’s exactly why everyone inside a venue must have the vaccine. If anyone is contagious (which may or may not be viable), this will prevent them from becoming Infected. If they don’t have the vaccine and someone is contagious, a team would be allowing them to become infected by allowing them in the stadium.

They won’t do it themselves but you better believe every venue will do so. First of all, most states will require them to do. Secondly, no team will want to accept the liability of allowing people to get infected when it could be prevented. Proof of vaccination will likely be required through 2022 or 2023 before this changes.
