A NOBLETIGER, as expected

Still not as bad as Maldonado at-bats

Lmao at Stone on Maldonado whiffing hard: "He just missed it."

Pedro is disgusted that Ramos showed such a lack of effort running to first on Benintendi's slow, horrible in-field double play.

Decided to look at Elko's numbers and looks like he still has a way to go, especially the strikeouts.

Watching a full Colon at-bat, I see how he strikes out looking, but this is with ABS. It's rough.

Remember, any other GM hired would take a year to evaluate the training staff. Chris Getz looked at it and went "looks good." Along with most of the org's operations.

Did he ever say anything bad about Fletcher, or was he the one rookie that Pedro somehow treated with respect?

Chris Getz is going to get to the bottom of this!

Kanister doing work

It's only one off-season, but Boras' clout took massive Ls this year.

Robert is only 2 years older and will become a free agent at the same time.

Nationals basically added an outline and a slant and went "good enough"

Since the thread hadn't been made yet:

It's only 21 AB but Kevin Pillar's numbers with the Angels are absolutely fucking stupid.

And Chris Getz was hired because it wouldn't take him a year to turn this ship around - he even talked smack about the rest of the division - so nah, blaming Rick Hahn for Dominic Fletcher being the outfield version of Madrigal, Martin Maldonado being Yaz, Shewmake making the roster over Mendick, cutting Pillar is all on Getz.

Getz was able to sell them as such because they're real first in, last out lunch pail types that play for the front of jersey not the back.

lol And before anyone brings up Moncada or Robert's injuries: People say they get reliably hurt and if Getz didn't need a year to assess things, he'd have revamped the medical staff for this team's hilarious amount of soft tissue injuries the past few years.

You ever seen a bigger jinx?

Why does this sound accurate to Pedro

@chitownsportsfan is unstoppable

The future is now?

He's angry because he knows he won't be in Chicago for long, but instead he'll ultimately be in Nashville.

My dad was talking to me about Ramos' english being really good and I told him about the Sox program for LatAm prospects to learn the language (which is actually really, really good thing that the org does and was started by Getz!). He all of a sudden criticized Moncada for...skipping classes? And I had to remind him that Moncada wouldn't have been attending English class at the Dominican or Arizona complexes since he never played there for the Sox.
