This game is on CSN Chicago

 

Moncada lead off single

 

Giolito pitching

Moncada with a single,D.hayes with a ribby

That whole Knights lineup just looks like they're brimming in confidence. Even Engel looks dangerous. Just missed a HR by inches.

Giolito has nothing on his fastball

Not sure how accurate this radar gun is but Giolito's only throwing 88-90

Minor league gun is a touch slow, but he isn't throwing 95+ out there. No idea why they aren't calling for his curveball more.

Wish we had space to bring up Delmonico already.

Giolito really sucks. So many excuses made for him being a disaster

They do...just DFA TrAsche.

You've just been waiting to say this, haven't you?

Not ready to give up on a 22 year old former top prospect just yet. He clearly isn't right but it's a long season.

I know he isn't fixed yet like we all thought he would be but this is still premature,no? disaster? cmon.

I liked the Eaton trade, but to me he looks like the same exact pitcher who had a fastball that got destroyed in the majors. He seems to be a major reclamation project now, which I doubt Hahn had in mind.

It's SUPER premature. Look, the velocity is absolutely a concern and something to pay attention to but it's also not as crazy bad as fathom has been going off on lately. He could be working on stuff, he could be trying to get his mechanics straight or he might just be off to a really bad start. All I know is he's a 22 year old in AAA who has had success in the past and whose breaking ball is at least missing bats at the moment. He's a project at this point but to call him is a disaster is even too fathom-y for fathom.

Even if they do that, Davidson should get the at bats. Once there is an injury or they trade Melky or Frazier, they'll have room for every day at bats for both.

It's not even just the velocity, but just going by the hard contact off of him this year, it doesn't appear his spin rate has drastically improved. The swings that the opposition gets off the fastball are scary.

I'll take Lopez as a great closer and Dunning starting the 3rd or 4th playoff game in 2020. That's still a good trade.

Still think Lopez can start

Moncada looks great
