  1. Then why hasn't anyone been wiped out?
  2. I like Keegan too much in the tough middle innings. I would go Alzolay out of that group.
  3. Why even take him out? This one's over, no sense burning another reliever.
  4. Yeah, he makes me really nervous. Not enough swing and miss for a late innings reliever.
  5. What is the possible justification for Mancini playing 1B over Hosmer when they are both in the lineup? Hosmer is the better defender. I wonder if they want the flexibility of pinch hitting for Hosmer without having to move guys around defensively?
  6. You beat me to it. If he's going to make throws like that, and we already know he can't hit, then what is the point?
  7. I turned The Score on yesterday and caught the tail end of Dan Bernstein referencing one of your pieces. I think it may have been this one. Is Bernstein one of us, or does anyone know if he mentioned how he found the article?
  8. I love Boog hanging Sutcliffe out to dry on multiple occasions, just not even acknowledging his comments.
  9. Quoted in error ^ What's the difference between him and Mervis over 40 games though? I agree that Mervis is a better option (it's hard to be worse), but a quarter of the season is probably not even a 1 win difference between the two. Especially if Mancini can get on track, that minimizes Hosmer's role even more. Mervis will be here soon enough, but I don't think it's an urgent move yet at this point.
  10. I would be all for making the move, but I still think the Cubs are going to give him a lot more than 44 at bats before they pull the trigger, especially with the team playing well.
  11. Hey Sutcliffe, sometimes less is more. The color commentator doesn't have to talk ALL THE TIME.
  12. He has been a really great story, coming back after being DFA'd, earning a spot on the roster again, and now absolutely dealing.
  13. Weird, but I'm also not convinced that either of those markets are ideal for an MLB franchise. I would much rather see a team back in Montreal
  14. I particularly like having a DH who bats 9th. It just doesn't seem like using the DH to get your 3rd catcher into the lineup in the 9 hole is really maximizing that position.
  15. You mean you don't get that sweet badge endorphin rush?
  16. If the deal with the devil was that Heyward was going to be not terrible in LA, but Bellinger would also regain his former glory, sign me up for that one.
  17. On one hand, yes, but on the other hand, I like having Wisdom down there to give a power threat at the bottom of the order.
