Glad they returned the favor and beat those fucks in ball-breaking fashion.  Profar? Seriously? That clown has a WAR of 1.3 already, his career best is 3.0 in 2022, he's giving me Tony Womack vibes.  Mediocre to bad player having a career or hot year although, I don't think Profar is going to sustain this current success.

He's just finally fulfilling those #1 prospect projections.

I'll give him this his name is awesome, from Baseball Reference - Jurickson Barthelomeus Profar - nevertheless, did not know he was a highly regarded prospect.  Quick glance at the numbers would suggests he's not very good.

Whatever works. So if they win every Shota start, probably 30 games, and play 500 the rest of the games they end up 96-66. I would take that.

I believe he was the #1 prospect in MLB for 2 straight years.

Yes, I remember he was a hot prospect for a long time. Then he never really produced in the MLB.
