1 hour ago1 hr Interesting appearance for Slaten who gets the big outs on a curveball that he's essentially never thrown before in the major leagues. Don't think our guys had any clue they might see that pitch.

1 hour ago1 hr Also a lesson in the pointlessness of ERA for relievers. FIP, xERA, SIERA, etc. all good for Slaten.

1 hour ago1 hr Offense waiting for Chapman to score some more runs. Aiming to get a better deal for him at the deadline. Getz playing 4D Chess Edited 1 hour ago1 hr by DoUEvenShift

Guy getting hurt is part of the deal when you trade for a starting pitcher. I'm curious to see how he does when he comes back, assuming he does reasonably soon.

Not sure how he became internet famous, but he seems like a good dude. A bit too reactionary for my tastes on Twitter, but some folks are wired that way with sports.Oh, he's a great guy. Just givin' him some chin music. Hey, he certainly puts in the work required to have what, 30k followers? That's fairly prodigious for a non-Political agitator.

1 hour ago1 hr 4 minutes ago, fathom said:People around baseball immediately reacted like Getz didn’t get enough for Cease. They were right, it looks like a turd.It does. Thorpe's injured, Iriarte was DFAed, now reborn. Wilson helped bring us Murray and Pereira, and Samuel Zavala may ... I don't know, keep CF warm at Birmingham for Fauske.

They were right, it looks like a turd.I think if you got two Thorpe-level guys it would have been looked at differently. I saw the reception as more about the other two guys and less about Thorpe. Remember when Zavala was red-hot for the first month of the season this year? ☹️

Remember when Zavala was red-hot for the first month of the season this year? ☹️The whole trade seemed like they were looking at Padres rankings and not actually scouting the players. Iriarte’s stuff immediately backed up and Thorpe’s velocity was a few mph slower than reported. Zavala will be playing in Japan and his agent will still be posting his highlights.
