I've never seen so many semis piled up on the sides of the interstate. That stretch in general is truck central you add weather lookout. I remember being on I 57 at Effingham with my dad driving. We watch a semi go from the right lane all of the way across traffic into the median in a jackknife. We got off the next exit and grabbed the first hotel we saw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted July 11 Author Share Posted July 11 You know what really gets me about balls called strikes is when the pitcher clearly is lacking command and the ump is like here you go have a free reward for not being able to throw a strike. makes no fucking sense.

chitownsportsfan Posted July 11 Author Share Posted July 11 I don't know what you do with Vargas in the 2nd half if he keeps this up. He's been awful going on two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been awful going on two months. So sick of the weak pop ups to the right side. I say give him the rest of the year and if he’s under .200 again, you move on. He’s completely broken at the plate.

Yea give him until the end of the year if he finishes replacement level he's a backup option at best next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about Vargas but I'm not too worried about Smith. I think he'll get there. Needs this break and a good offseason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just needs to reshape his breaking balls. That slider that was hit out had very little movement. His pitch values on fangraphs shows his fastball and change as quality and the rest as negative.
