    Not sure what sucks more, Monty to the DL or Chatwood taking his start. I'd rather have Underwood or Mills get a spot 3 inning start. And Rosario has been ass recently. Would rather see someone else get the call up but our depth is dwindling. I almost expect another trade before the August 31 deadline.

    Including the playoffs, he's 0-for-11 with 16 runs scored and 25 stolen bases. Maybe he gets a couple at bats in September but that doesn't really matter. Having a speedy threat on the bases will be a nice luxury in the playoffs.

    Can we name the MVP award after him?

    Maples has struck out 27 batters in his last 11 innings. :shock:

    Odd trade. They get a good bench bat but give up an interesting young arm. Bour has nowhere to play really. Santana at first, Franco at 3rd, Hoskins and Nick Williams on the corners. Certainly gives them good insurance/offense off the bench though. They also DFA'd Jake Thompson and I wouldn't mind grabbing him. Was a really good prospect fairly recently.

    ok? Does this mean we're done with Brian Duensing until Sept/forever?

    Remember how we got Leal for Tony Campana? Classic. Now that's he's back from injury, how does he look as a prospect? I know he hasn't hit AA yet but his numbers are rock solid.

    Doesn't mean he's racist, but it certainly doesn't sound great. Hopefully, we don't discover some embarrassing awful thing he said on twitter... I don't really see this as being racist. He was talking about his transition from Oklahoma to Arizona. He’s been playing on elite travel teams since he was 13-14, so by his senior year of HS he is probably used to feeling like one of the older/more mature members of his team. Now after being drafted and playing with even more experienced players he’s back toward the bottom of the ladder. Also his community growing up was about 80% white vs 6% Latin American, so I could definitely see moving into a clubhouse that’s probably closer to 60-70% Latin as being a bit of a cultural shock. Yeah that's how I read it too. Unless there's more quotes not included, I think it's fine/whatever. If he's been tweeting racist horsefeathers then we have a problem.

    The Nationals just DFAd Shawn Kelley for throwing his glove after giving up a home run. What a joke.

    Glasnow and Meadows going to Tampa

    And Gausman to the Braves. Did not think it would be this crazy going down to the wire.

    I like it, depending on the prospect. He's not flashy or exiting but gets results. The fact that he gets groundballs and soft contact really helps with our defense. Also nice that he has a low walk rate, considdering some of our other pitchers.....

    Remember when people wanted Wisler? In other news, the Yanks traded Tyler Austin for Lance Lynn and the Red Sox got Ian Kinsler.
  14. Post Count Padder
    Cool, frees us up to get Brad Ziegler.
  15. Post Count Padder
    Lol the Cardinals are releasing Greg Holland.
  16. Post Count Padder
    That's a pretty fair deal. Butler is whatever and one of Rob Z/Underwood/Mills could replace his production (heck Farrell and Bass were doing just that while he was on the DL). Lacy is having a nice year but we have other pitchers similar to him so he's not a big loss. I'd still like to add another reliever but I'm pleased with this and the Chavez trade. Sneaky good moves without giving up much.
  17. Post Count Padder
    I'd be in favor if the cost is low and we can get Diekman or Kela too
  18. Post Count Padder
    It's Drury and McKinney and potentially more going to Toronto.
  19. Post Count Padder
    DBacks acquired Matt Andriese from the Rays and then DFA'd former Cubs trade target Randall Delgado.

    The in-laws live in Reading and surprised me with Reading Phillies tickets yesterday for my birthday. Got to see them play New Hampshire, so I got to see Vlad Jr in the flesh. Dude is massive. Made some nice plays in the field too. The top three hitters in their order were Bichette's kid, Biggio's kid and Vlad Jr so I felt pretty old. Great ballpark though. At one point I was getting beer and Phillies 2017 first rounder Adam Haseley just walked by me me to go into the clubhouse. Definitely an older park ha.

    Our peeress leader deserves a shiny new Clayton Richard on this day. I really wanted an Eovaldi. Same. I figured he was ours if we really wanted him. And the return wasn't that great.

    So is this similar to a Maples and Vosler package? A little less considering the int'l money? Trying to see if this is about what we could expect to give up for Britton. Seemed like the Mets didn't get a great return but the O's aren't exactly well run either.
