It is hilarious seeing Mariners sell while the Reds, who are in a worse actual position despite projected as a better team, are like "yeah, let's do this." Someone should tell them last years playoff rules don't apply.

Someone should tell them last years playoff rules don't apply. Hard for me to understand what the logic is for a Reds team not really in contention? They dealt Iglesias this offseason only to trade for pen help now?
July 28, 20214 yr The Reds are like the Rockies, only playing in a weaker division. A lot of their moves are headscratchers.
July 28, 20214 yr I feel like reds are in a formula one mindset that they'll somehow be better off if they can sell a winning record and 7th place NL finish like it matters.

Striking out a ton (13.4 per 9), giving up bombs to those who connect (1.8 HRs per 9 IPs) resulting in a 6.20 ERA. https://www.milb.com/player/avery-weems-686830 Don't think he'll ever get beyond AA. A bird in hand worth two in the bush. Edited July 28, 20214 yr by South Side Hit Men

A bird in hand worth two in the bush. Never say never with a pitcher. He's doing one thing at an elite level in AA. He just has to figure out the other part, not getting hit.
