I do wonder if seeing Q's curveball be this effective at Coors causes the Rockies to think a little harder about trading for him.

I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the deadline...well, unless you are also one of the Sale trade was "one player short" or "bad because it didn't include Devers instead of Diaz"

 

Nope, was very pleased with pretty much all of the off season moves except the handling of the Q situation. And for the record I'm not even upset that he wasn't traded. It has a lot more to do with the fact that they said they were trying to move him and didn't. The talk to the media the entire time should have been "Q is a great young talent under control that we will continue to build around." If a deal came a long great, if not oh well. I've said it before and people here have disagreed, but I believe 100% that there's a correlation to the trade talk and Q's performance so far this season.

6 SO for Quintana.

Nasty f***ing pitch! Q with six K's so far!!

Would love to look up in 4 innings and see him have 7 IP with just the 2 ER.

 

With 10+ K's on top of it. ;)

Can we pull Q with stomach bug?

TA can't get out of his own way right now.

True, though he did slip.

nice job Q! lol

I might be Willy's biggest fan on this site. Has power (although that hasn't translated), decent speed, by far our best defensive RF and has been taking his walks. He might not amount to much, but I wanna see what he can do with more PT. His defense alone is probably gonna put his WAR up there.

Rockies have been throwing the leather tonight. They'll be an easy team to pull for.

I'm with you, I'm a huge Willy fan. I think he deserves more playing time once we trade Frazier & Melky. The only problem is we'll actually have a positional logjam. Once Moncada claims 2B, we'll have Leury, Engel, Willy, Delmonico, Davidson, & Sanchez to cover CF, LF, 3B, & DH. I worried that Willy may be the odd man out.

Frazier continues to get on base.

Frazier's OPS up to .789. And what the f*** did Yolmer just do?

What's up with Yolmer's baseball I.Q. lately? Dude is playing like De Aza out there recently.

Did Hawk just say "Damn" after that play?

I'm in the trade Avi camp since his value is incredibly high compared to last season. But if this season isn't a fluke, then it's a good problem to have.

So many dumb mistakes of late...

Yolmer was SAFE. But, the 2bman lifted his leg up and off the bag. Cheaters!

Didn't he simply slide off the bag?

 

And why do your posts read like Trump tweets?

He did.

 

And Engel is a stud defensively.

Yeah, I'd really like to give Leury & Engel everyday at-bats, although both guys obviously need to be CFs for their bats to play up. But in a rebuilding season, it probably doesn't matter.
