  1. It matters when you have a pitcher going 3 or 4 innings every five days. It’s going to kill your bullpen unless planned for. Hopefully Getz & Grifol have an actual plan here, because Touki or whomever the long reliever is will be needed to cover the other guys in the rotation.
  2. So who will be his piggyback every five days? Feels like you basically need a dedicated sixth starter who is paired with Crochet to pull this off.
  3. I don’t disagree with your core point, but I don’t think AAA experience is all that important for pitchers. If he dominates AA for three months, then there is a real argument that he’s ready for the majors IMO.
  4. Gio Gonzalez was “passed along” three times and put up 32 fWAR.
  5. Yes, let’s ignore all of Sheets’ history of being a bad major league hitter and slot in his horrible glove into RF because of a few dozen meaningless spring training at-bats.
  6. To be fair, only one person is doing this and they constantly look for things to feed their pessimism.
  7. It’s like two or three weeks typically unless it’s changed with the new CBA.
  8. Sheets isn’t a legitimate OF option though. How has DeLoach been this spring? If bad, I’m not sure what alternative they really have.
  9. For a reason? How about Arizona’s loaded fucking OF? When will you stop with this insanity.
  10. If we use Sheets as the strong side platoon in RF, then Getz should be fired immediately because he’d be even more full s%*# than Grifol.
  11. He has already proven himself in the minors and more seasoning won’t really help. At this point, it’s make or break in the majors…it’s really that simply.
  12. Can we please stop doing this every year? Spring training stats mean almost nothing and I say this as one of the most vocal critics of the Fletcher / Mena trade. And for the record, if Fletcher doesn’t make the Opening Day roster, that would much more indicative of Getz has no clue about player evaluation.
  13. I’d personally wait until mid/late April with Nastrini & Thorpe even if they were ready.
  14. Fedde, Soroka, & Flexin are locks. The other two spots probably go to some combo with Crochet (with a piggyback), Nastrini, and a free agent.
  15. I think we will look back on this trade in 10 years and all agree it was an A+ return when Zavala ends up being a legit star posting .400 OBPs year after year with 25+ bombs per and Thorpe has made 200 (mostly quality) starts for us.
