Colas is getting really locked in lately, another hard hit out. They will start falling soon

Giolito & Reynaldo to LAA. Update: Angels put on waivers
Top 15 3B and probably top 15 2B if moved there permanently. Just like with Colas his approach at the plate is gonna dictate how good he can be. Being more patient and not chasing would skyrocket him. I think we are seeing Colas turn a corner as he has had a number of really good ABs lately and some real hard hit outs (will turn into hits soon)

Giolito & Reynaldo to LAA. Update: Angels put on waivers
In almost all of those mlb trades they were serious contenders in which case its fine if thats the one piece you are missing. But in general catcher's are a penny a dozen. You can't go trading for them hoping to hit a unicorn bc it ain't gonna happen. Prospect catcher's just don't seem to work out bc once they hit the bigs they have to actually manage a game, pitching staff, catcher duties (all more important to than their hitting), etc. thus their hitting suffers greatly or gets exposed. For me the better play would have been to try and target a SP or MIF of the same caliber as Quero being the main piece bc they are much more valuable, harder to get, and can turn things around quicker. That said, I do like Quero and Bush so if that's the best they could get for a 2 month rental then great I'll take it.

I have Quero in the 70s just ahead of Schultz in my prospect rankings for Fantasy baseball (pretty good correlation). However after sleeping on this, I am not exactly a fan of this bc trading for a catcher at any level (bigs or minors) is the absolute worst thing to do. Now if that was literally the best offer we could get for 2 months of Gio then ill take it as both Quero and Bush do have proxmity and decent ceilings going for them.

Was that SB on Kopech lol. Grandal is just fucking terrible now and everyone can steal on him- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
The stadium is just a launching pad tonight....unless you suck at making any contact in the air like the Sox- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
They are trying and thats the crazy sad part- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
Honestly, not bad at all.- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
They already said Moncada and Eloy aren't so thats 1/3 of the lineup playing injured lmao- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
5 IP, 3 ER (1 unearned and 1 should have been an out if not for Grandal), 1 BB and 5 Ks. It wasn't pretty but thats what you want from your starter in today's game. You'd like a 6th inning but that works...its the offense and fielding that is the problem- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
Grandal had a great chance there as well but made a terrible throw, stome must be stoned- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
He would have still been safe regardless on that one- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
But do we trust the team to find good ones lol- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
2 of the 3 would have been gunned down if any other cancer in baseball was playing so.....- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
Lol. 2 of the 5 runs given up by piss poor play in the field- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
But he doesn't so thats not it- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
6 pitch inning ? Dude gonna have a perfect game unless the bats wake up- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
One HR and that single were on great FB up and out of the zone. No one hits those and especially not hard.....tipping could account for that- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
He might be tipping his pitches again- 7/25 Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 7:10CT
Kopech is top 14 in stuff+ of pitchers with more than 60 innings pitched, so that is entirely incorrect.- 7/22 Games
2 ballpark aided and one to the moon lol- GameThread: White Sox @ Twins
