The problem here is burning Cordero/Lambert now for the next two games in less than 24 hours.

It's not like there wasn't enough video available from him at Missouri State...he was one of the most scouted collegiate hitters in the entire class.

Lambradero back in.

Adam Engel lol. Leury. Oh, where have you gone?

How many PA's does he have the last week? Pretty tough ask against 97-102 from here on out.

cojones

Only three more innings to cover... Phillies have the clear pen advantage from this point. Great job by Lambert...75-85% of the time those runs would score.

Marsh has been red hot recently.

Who has been tutoring him on defense?

It could have been Bummer...? Or Kelly if he were available. They're going to destroy the "middle" of the bullpen next.

Whoever picked Trea Turner to homer deserves that K lol...

Good reason to never fire anyone. It could get worse. We probably deserve Musk as owner with that type of mentality.

Shades of TLR getting coaching advice last year from fans near the dugout, must have heard that story...

Creatine?

Just in time to be traded so we can save JR even more profits from 2023 in his walk year.

Middleton and Lambert are the two hot hands...but they're trailing lol. Might as well crater Lynn's trade value a bit more here with another crooked number.

Shago?

Was easily convinced Erstad had another 240 hits 40+ doubles season in him...because he checked all the grindy boxes on the evaluation form.

They would be nuts to give him Ohtani money. He walks a lot. He's an average outfielder at best. Not much of a threat on the basepaths. He was a great player for Washington, but still haven't seen that same player yet.

Obviously he's the most high risk, yet highest ceiling player in baseball (if he was at SS and not protected in RF). Even then, he's top 5-10 in baseball when he can stay on the field like 2020 and most of 2021. But the Padres have hardly "lost" money on that investment if you just go by fWAR per salary paid from his rookie year through today. What's really going to matter is if they can win a championship in. the next decade or not.

Reported for ageism to moderators. Basically, TA7 Rowand Quentin played similar number of games per year and neither one of those is/was close to being described as the franchise cornerstone and meriting a $175-225 million FA contract in 2000's adjusted constant dollars. They were both consistently described as reckless and/or injury prone. Basically the Sox went from the best in the business missing the least amount of days under Schneider to being a consensus Bottom 5 team in baseball under Hahn and various trainers like Ball and Thomas that were mistreated or discriminated against by the organization.

Why would we count those first three years when he was up and down and wasn't established as a regular? Just like TA7 his rookie year didn't have the opportunity to play the full year at the big league level. Same with. Rowand establishing himself. The point was how many games per season did they played per year when they were the established starter from the get go. Adding in the years they weren't hurt but unable to play because of the manager's decision (could do the same with Viciedo and Ozzie) tells one what exactly about their health? Pretty much nothing. By that argument...I should have screwed them all over by counting only 48 out of 60 out of 162 as missing well more than half the season (48/162) instead of giving them credit for missing very few games that year and projecting the same pace out over 162... Abreu missed none and Anderson 12/60. Just one example that made Eloy Robert and Moncada actually look better. Should I have included 2023 as well... lol? Three of those guys would look even worse again.

So he's basically five games off the number of games that TA7 plays per year and well ahead of Jimenez and Robert... okay. Similar to Rowand as well....who always hurt himself yet still managed four games per season more than Tim.

Aaron Rowand 129 GP Jose Abreu 152 gp

Crede 144 Carlos 120 Konerko 146 Dye 145 Thome 141 Uribe 134 Moncada 132-134 GP/season if prorated 2020 9/16 played this year Luis Robert 106 GP with 2020 prorated Jimenez 103 GP per season/2020 prorated Anderson 125-126 gp 11/16 this year didn't count rookie year
