You're probably right, but you know what? They have the ability to get every call right, so let's do that instead -
so give the Preds their pick of goalie prospects from the Hawks and maybe the Dallas 2025 #2 or the TOR 2025 #1 if the #2 isn't enough?
-
it's just such a correctable flaw... it's just insane that they continue to allow the umpires to have such an undue influence on the game
-
ump changes the AB and possibly swings the game with that bad call
-
great hustle from Seiya

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 8-17-24

Who was it that said Shaw was overmatched at AAA? -
I just don't get the thinking that we need to keep going to Neris. We only technically have a playoff chance, and every appearance is closer to locking that bum in for next year
-
Vladito will hit 2 bombs if he gets to face Hendricks more than twice
-
that seems like an absolute home run for the USMNT

Cubs Minor League Pitcher of the Month: July 2024
Rex Buckingham replied to Jason Ross's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
why won't this article stop showing up as unread in my feed? Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed reading it, but I just don't need to keep seeing it -
gee, the guy who spent 2/3 of the season on the IL isn't getting the job done in his 2nd inning of work? who could have guessed...
-
Merryweather still being in may bite us...
-
just go ahead and throw one to the backstop already
-
clutch hitting?!? what is this team?
-
fully expect a bad strike 3 called here
-
I'd almost forgotten that sometimes baseball can be fun
-
Williams has a cannon
-
hahahahahaha

Happ has 2.2 WAR and Nico is at 1.4, my back of the napkin math says that's slightly below what their contract says they're worth for the year, with a month and a half of baseball left to play. They're not great players. And it would be nice if both made a little less. But they're both pretty good players, they just look worse because of how they accumulate their value (Happ isn't a HR hitter, runs extremely hot and cold, Nico has no power to speak of) and because the rest of the lineup has struggled outside of Seiya being fairly consistent
-
Fair enough, being at the game certainly makes it a different experience. And I don't disagree that we've taken strike 3 entirely too many times this year.
-
He took ball 4 on a 3-1 pitch that literally was never in the zone but gor called a strike. I don't know what you want him to do.
-
I agree that he's probably not totally healthy... but if he's just a 2-3 inning guy out of the pen, that's really valuable to have with a rotation that will likely rely on a young guy or two next year
