Squirmin' for Yermin

He's never been a power hitter.

I like a 100 million salary floor. It'll instantly make teams more competitive. make tanking much harder.

A salary floor is absolutely needed

Glad to see Vaughn sitting against a lefty and both Goodwin and Lamb playing. That's just good managing.

By the time he would be worked up to having any legitimate innings, and no inning cap he'd have what, 2 years remaining on his contract? He absolutely should have been in Charlotte working as a SP going 3-5 innings a start and then been called up in September as a bullpen piece, This shouldve gotten him to around 100 innings. He will be at 60ish innings this year. Next year, likely the kopech plan, so 80 innings, then we start him and he works his way up to 120, then 160 the next year, then 2 years left before FA... Not hard to see why he will be a reliever because of the way we handled it. If this was our plan, then that was a bad pick at #11. I have to imagine this wasn't our plan but Tony demanded he be in the bullpen.

Because of the way we've handled Crochet, his career will be a relief pitcher. I am sure his value in trade is affected

Marcus Lattimore was always the one that comes to mind. His lower leg just flopping around all willy nilly

Did anyone record this game (including the opening corn walkthrough).. Would they have the ability to put it on a disk? I'd pay for your work and it! That's a game I'd love to have forever. Thanks!

I have a free ticket. I BELIEVE row 4. right by the dugout. Lucky you! Plus you get to sit with me and some family LOL. Text me if interested, I won't be on the forum before then. 219-877- 4263. You can give me a solid high five as payment.

I may have an extra ticket (free) tonight in BOX135. I don't think this is a box seat, rather the first 10 rows in section 135. I am unsure though since I can't find much info online. Message me!

Well if he's the one missing all of these (been happening a lot all year), maybe we should find someone else to be our review guy and if Kash is so good, he can stay in his other roles.

Move him to AAA and see what we got.

Eloy in LF with Vaughn at DH is scary

I assume we will be the host team every year.... right?

they got down to $750 a few days ago. Was hoping they'd hit $500. But to no avail.

Brewers will get booted early.

I think we actually have an advantage without Larussa lol

They better put the A team out for this game.

I really wish they'd announce the lineups ala WWE and then the player (while being announced) runs out of the cornfield :D.. Extremely cheesy.. but fuck it, give me the nostalgia!!!

This is going to be amazing.

You bother because Kopech is a starting pitching for the White Sox in 2021.. If he only pitches 65 innings this year (he pace), he will likely be capped insanely low next year. He needs innings.

and yet, they aren't easing him into full utilization. Beginning of the year it appeared they were.. Then they stopped

Been saying this all year (same with Crochet). Having Kopech no where near 100 innings this year will suck

We still had potential 2 WS runs without the trade to be fair (btw I am fine with the trade).

I mean, nothing he said here is wrong. 1. Kimbrel was useless to the Cubs. 2. Madrigal could win a batting title. 3. Heuer could easily become their closer of the future if he gets anywhere close to 2020.
