I had no idea who this Gyorky guy was at all, nor how some dude I'd never heard of already had a contract they want to unload I uh, haven't been paying much attention the last like 3 years
Desperate moves while squinched up against the trade deadline and without the infield flexibility when trying to give Bryant a day off isn't Joe really taking your advice, sontensei
I love this whole "would prefer Starlin Castro" over Javier Baez. Well yeah of course, I would much rather give someone a bunch of coal than a bag of diamonds, as well.
Crazy to think Justin Upton is only 27 (soon to be 28) when he's been in the league forever. It also feels like he's already gone through his arc as a player when he is entering the years that (historically considered, sometimes disputed) to be his peak.
One one hand I understand why the Cubs FO is 'aggressively shopping' Starlin Castro, on the other hand, I understand why no team is particularly interested in one of the worst players in the league right now
Bryant in the early 2000s would have totally hit 40 home runs his rookie year EDIT: Good God, Pat Burrell's rookie year in 2000 OPS of .822 was good for only a 106 OPS+ I miss the early 2000's :bye:
:? Bryant's batting average has dipped below .250 It saddens me to see his nice slash line drop, its important to me, aesthetically, that his OPS stays above .800 for his entire season
