So the veterans Getz brought in this offseason are 9 for 73 at the plate with 6 walks

5-50 with RISP. That is just unfathomably bad. 

Quite fathomable with this team

damn hang wiffem. good contact tho. Just play Lee as the primary catcher. He's clearly an improved player. 

I’m confused as to why they brought in DeJong if they were just going to give Shewmake so much playing time.  

0-4 with RISP already

The Ramirez extension talk is funny to me. Either he took a discount to stay in sunny, beautiful Cleveland. Or he gets traded to gross San Diego and gets paid more money.

De Bong is a guy they should have signed three years ago to be a super sub on a good team.  No idea what he brings on a rebuilding team. 

It's like they thought this was a 55 win team and they just needed to sign a few shitty vets to get to 60 to "make it respectable" or some s%*#.

100%. Shewmake is awful.

Or they’re overreacted to a homer Shewmake hit despite an awful track record of hitting in the minors?  Don’t get me wrong, they both suck, but it goes to show you they had no plan when free agency started.

I'm tired of Schriffren talking about all his firsts. Bro, nobody cares.

"I dont want to piss anybody off"

 

I have a feeling he's gonna get called down to the principals office

The pitching might actually be league average this year. The offense will be historically bad.

That’s funny you think someone is watching this

Come on dude. Cut him some slack, his spirit hasn’t been broken yet. I’m glad he’s excited.

That's fair. We'll break him by July. 

One thing I will admittedly be guilty of regardless of results. I like Nicky.

This sounds sexual

Grossman is an older Palka. Beer leaguer.

I know it's just like Jason last year with all the players first mentioned a gazillion times

Sox got to lead MLB in DP

First pitch inner half fastball….don’t hit that crap to the left side on the ground. No wonder he has no power production.

I get that it hit him but lol why are you arguing to take a successful sac off the board, if that is indeed what you intended...

Nicky my hero
