    Ump wont apologize and there will be no repercussions for this horsefeathers show. Then they'll wonder why people want robot umpires.
  2. Tryptamine
    I feel like the Cubs are loaded with relievers with plus stuff and very little command.
  3. Tryptamine
    Not as bad as this umpire
  4. Tryptamine
    Laughably terrible. Also a fairly horsefeathers throw by Seiya.
  5. Tryptamine
    Yup, this is going well.
  6. Tryptamine
    Taillon getting shelled now, sure why not.
  7. Tryptamine
    Clank
  8. Tryptamine
    Well that was quick
  9. Tryptamine
    Well this at bat is mildly terrifying
  10. Tryptamine
    Not an easy play, but Morel makes everything look really hard.
  11. Tryptamine
    For Alonso? Yeah. The absolute highest I go up the prospect tree is Triantos and I'm not particularly thrilled about that either.
  12. Tryptamine
    Pretty crazy that before today he was putting up a 137 wRC+ on a .207 babip. His FB% is crazy high so he's not going to carry a really high babip, but .207 is really low even in that scenario.
  13. Tryptamine
    I mean I get that they can't list current production as MLB equivalent otherwise he'd be like a 60 hit tool current, but 25 just seems unreasonable. I mean Alcantara and Caissie have 30s and they strike out at a much higher clip.
  14. Tryptamine
    My guess is the Mets ask for someone like Caissie/Ballesteros which is an immediate hang up the phone response if I'm Jed.
  15. Tryptamine
    Even at A+ last year it as only 19.5%. So while it has clearly taken a step forward this year, even last year it wasn't accurate. The grades have always been one of my big knocks on FG. They're fairly quick to update the FV, but tool grades are painfully slow to adjust if at all.
  16. Tryptamine
    Speaking of, it baffles me that FG still has his current hit tool as a 25 with future projections of 50. He's in AA with a 13.4K%, in what world is a 25 hit tool?
  17. Tryptamine
    If the asking price is like Alex Canario then sure, but I suspect given what Alonso means to the fans and because of his HR prowess, they're going to be seeking substantially more than that. I'm sure you could get JD Martinez far cheaper and he'd give you just as much production.
  18. Tryptamine
    He wanted a Freddie Freeman contract, at this point I'm not even sure I'd want him at 4/80
  19. Tryptamine
    in Seiya/Morel they have 2 guys who primarily should be DH, adding a third in Alonso just doesn't work. It especially isn't going to work if PCA starts seeing more playing time which means more Bellinger at 1B.
  20. Tryptamine
    Bellinger is the obvious, but I wouldn't be completely opposed to Nico depending on the type of talent he brings back. Like if LAD decided they were over Gavin Lux and were willing to ship out Rushing, one of Joendry Vargas/Jose De Paula and Maddux Bruns I wouldn't hang up.
  21. Tryptamine
    Ok, so who do the Cubs have on short deals that other teams might want? I'm struggling to come up with anyone.
  22. Tryptamine
    I'd agree there isn't much to sell, so basically just sitting on their hands is probably the move. I just don't want them using resources trying to bail out a team 10 games out of the division.
  23. Tryptamine
    If they're 10 games out of the division 2 weeks from now, I am not investing in a team that has a chance at a play in game.
  24. Tryptamine
    They need this sweep with them already being 7 games out of the division. They're on the verge of being sellers if they don't have a good next 2 weeks.
  25. Tryptamine
    Law has always been by far the high man on Alcantara; I'm pretty surprised by Shaw though.
