I don’t remember Wims impressing at all: he looked the weakest if the bunch. Either we’re that deep and perspective belies reality or he ....... didn’t impress
so, we go extras last night, Lester is sick, Chatwood pitches ok and we pull him with 68 pitches. I realize hes been the bullpen guy, but a few more would have been nice.
He was accused of domestic violence, he was punished for committing domestic violence and he accepted his punishment for committing domestic violence. Yes that doesn't mean he did everything he was accused of. We have no idea what he did or didn't do. If MLB had evidence he did everything he was accused of he would have got way more games and Boras would have dumped him and the Cubs wouldn't brought him back. "not a DV apologist" "no obstruction"
why would that be bad news for Willson? i didn't think he was bad at blocking balls and he has a strong, accurate arm. if anything i figure that would be a positive for him? am i wrong on that? I think in general this is bad for any catcher
working for the Ricketts would require strong character, and god knows Hendry loved that over actual baseball skills...soo maybe he got lucky on the later (?)
