Jack Parkman

Hand is nasty. We gotta get em in the 8th.

Omg they're going to give Clevinger another inning.

How about Alonso/Eloy B2B Jacks.

Here's something I agree with you on.

He was, but a bad one.

I said Old Hawk. Hawk in his prime was awesome.

Need 2 more scoreless out of Nova. Might be too much to ask.

QFT.

Idk what you're talking about. Benetti is a good announcer. A massive upgrade over old Hawk.

Yeah, just tip your cap. Cleveland's bullpen is shitty. Hope Nova can keep them at bay until they pull Clevinger.

Nah, that is an insult to little leaguers

Get Palka out of RF. NOW!!!

I think Robert will at the very least. I forgot Adolfo as well. They have 6 legit OF prospects not including Eloy. 2 will probably pan out, and I think all can play RF.

They've already committed to Eloy, and he's a long-term DH. They're 6 deep in legit OF prospects. Plus Basabe and Adolfo(forgot about him) have one option left after this season. They're going to be up sooner rather than later

We're in total agreement here.

Eloy is going to DH, and the OF will be 3 of Robert/Gonzalez/Rutherford/Basabe

Ricky is Gahbage. I can't stand him. He has no idea how to manage a pitching staff.

Go get him, Ricky. Dammit. Don't do that to Gio again. Now this is where Burr gives up a double and makes this outing look much worse than it actually was.

He just cost Gio that run.

I think Giolito needs to ditch the curve and go to the slider. Gets way more swinging strikes on the slider.

Nice Moncada.

I already said I have to see it for 10 starts before I gloat. I have to see Moncada until mid-June for the same. You bet your ass if both guys are good by mid-June I will be gloating.

Not true. Did I say that he was bad last year? Yeah. There is no way to objectively argue otherwise. I still thought he had a chance to be good. Did I trash his performance last year? Yeah. He deserved every bit of criticism. I always thought, always that he still had a chance to be good. I told people to be patient with the two of them. I have been among Giolito's and Moncada's most ardent supporters consistently. The occasional negative statement does not constitute that I've still supported both of them. Take that stick you have up your ass out. You couldn't objectively defend their performance last year. It doesn't change the fact that I still believed in both of them, just because I didn't defend them. 1. Giolito gradually got his fastball back and his mechanics have changed twice since his struggles last year. There was reason for optimism. 2. Moncada has too much talent to suck forever.

Yup.

Fathom and CWS would be first on the list. CWS and I have had massive arguments about Gio/Lopez and who has the higher ceiling. I'm a bit concerned about Gio not getting swings and misses on either his curve or slider so we have to wait and see.
