Maybe giving a big nod to age since he's 19 and doing this in full season ball already vs a college draftee?
-
He's got enough of a history that I don't think this is smoke and mirrors. He's not actually this good, but he's certainly capable of being a useful player for more than a hot month.
-
Same7/9 but I had Randy Myers and couldn't come up with a Mariners closer or the Pirates/Rangers combo.
-
Yeah, I'm ready for him to be fired into the sun.

The thing I liked most about GABP was the different spots you could grab a seat at around the stadium for different perspectives. I bought RF bleacher seats but sat in center and right as well in spots designed for people to hang out in for a bit and then move on. Fantastic sight lines too. I haven't been to Comiskey probably since it was called Comiskey.

The arrest report on that is pretty awful. Didn't know he was in Pittsburgh, didn't know how he got there, empty beer cans on the passenger floorboard and empty aluminum bottles in the trunk, which probably explains him blowing a .21.

The Cardinals moved into fourth place

He also led the league in balls stuck to his chest protector and umps spat upon. He's trash. -
I'll just do top 5 because I'm at 21 total and 5 of them are out of commission. 1. Wrigley 2. San Francisco 3. Camden Yards 4. PNC 5. Great American Busch is such a generic structure, similar to Detroit for me. I don't dislike them but they aren't exceptional in any way. If you haven't been to Kauffman since it was remodeled, it's a completely different park now. I'd rate Miller ahead of both of those.

Dansby just let it go and easily could have caught it. Not sure what Nico was doing.

Man does Hendricks get hit hard when he's not locating precisely.
-
You sure? 😂

Where's Sully and his amoral corporations now?

Regardless of the Cubs' issues, that was an inexcusable performance in the 1st and 2nd innings from Cuzzi last night and very likely significantly changed the course of the game. It's rare that there's that great of an impact in that short of a period of the game, but 3 of the first 5 outs the Cubs made were blown calls that resulted in Ks looking.
-
As someone who lives down here and probably pays more attention to them than I'd like to admit, I think the only thing that saves them is firing Marmol. It feels like the players know he's Mozeliak's puppet and add in how he called out O'Neill earlier in the year for not hustling without having a conversation with him first and it's created some significant locker room problems. They aren't as good as they've been and expecting Goldy and Arenado to replicate last year was a fool's errand to begin with.
-
Boog and JD were talking about him giving a little arm shake before Ross popped out of the dugout and speculated there may have been something in addition to that pregame that nobody really knows about. It didn't look like whatever the arm shake was affected him because he threw a FB later in the AB at 93 and that's about the top end of his velocity.
-
I was looking at his numbers last night because I had no idea where he came from or what kind of player he was and was surprised to see the really solid MiL numbers and good numbers in the one season he got regular ML playing time. Seems like he's been a fringy guy who never really got a chance and may have been a victim of circumstance. All that to say he's not really this good but I think it's possible he's a serviceable big leaguer.
-
Lack of velocity, lack of Ks, reliance on the ground ball are all things that make him not a flashy top of the rotation guy but he's certainly been exactly as you describe him pretty consistently for quite a while.
-
Count me as not understanding why we're putting game threads in a place other than the game threads area and then moving it so it shows up as a new post when there's no new posts in the thread. I'm old and set in my ways and I hate it.

Article: Nick Madrigal Has to Go
mul21 replied to Matthew Trueblood's topic in North Side Baseball Front Page News
The White Sox inexplicable use of Kimbrel was the dumbest part of that trade. No idea what they were thinking. Total bust for both at this point unless Heuer starts getting guys out soon in Iowa and can contribute in the ML pen. -
I'd be happy with 5 IP and 2 ER and seeing solid location and the velocity hold up to what it's been in his MiL starts.
-
Soriano with defense. He's definitely going to have cold spells to go along with heaters like he's on now.

I thought the same thing until I saw the replay. It didn't look like he had an angle to make an easy throw so I have no problem with him taking the sure out, especially in that situation with a 5 run lead. -
Where did they rank on April 25th?
