  1. Seems like a good inning to have brought Wilson in to figure horsefeathers out
  2. Step 1: Fire Mallee. Not a super serious comment It should be serious, Mallee is a terrible hitting coach Lol
  3. Game is, potentially, on MLBN for some as well
  4. These jerk-faced, losers still just might be good after all :flythew:
  5. This is going to be huge, the best the fixed Cubs you'll ever see. Believe me
  6. Need a KB dong to cap this inning off
  7. The most electrifying man in MLB
  8. Yeah this is dumb. Regardless of the results it's bad decision making.
  9. It worked pretty well last year Right, but the bullpen was mostly one guy. On paper, the bullpen seemed Royals-y immediately following the last two deadlines, only for guys to fall off. Such is the life for relievers, I suppose. Edwards and Monty were pretty great out of the pen and Strop was too until he stupidly tried sliding for that ball and screwed up his knee and Rondon was putting up absurd numbers before his arm injury.
  10. It worked pretty well last year
  11. Justin Wilson Sucks and We Have the Right to Hate Him and Demand Takebacks on Isaac Paredes.thread
  12. I don't know if Wilson has thrown a breaking pitch for a strike yet in his time here and he doesn't appear to know where his fastball is going either
  13. I really irrationally hate Wilson, he horsefeathering sucks
  14. He hit one nearly the same the last AB too, it went like 410 feet
  15. Would like to know what's going through Javy's head tonight at the plate
  16. What the hell kind of strategy is this by the D'backs with walker bunting here
  17. Schwarber is so strong, he one armed that 400+ feet
  18. I think Mr. Not Clutch is about to get real hot
  19. Seems like a night we either go crazy and score 8-12 or get held under 2. Since we suck probably 1 run.
  20. He's pretty much a non-prospect as a hitter. If we get him he's 100% a pitcher Come on bro, I wouldn't call him a "non-prospect" as a hitter. There are plenty of scouts and executives that think he could be decent in terms of hitting at the MLB level. They just all agree he's a better pitching prospect, and that focusing on hitting (and playing in the field) might detract from his ability to dominate as a pitcher. Same argument people made with H. Greene and B. McKay during and after the 17' MLB draft. I believe S. Otani is legit as a prospect in both areas (hitting and pitching). He's just a MUCH better pitching prospect. Most guys I've read think very little of him as a hitter, it's mostly a media narrative. He's 100% a pitcher, it would be ridiculous to try and have him do both transitioning to MLB and taking away abs from real major league hitters on a team trying to win. Sure I'd like the Marlins or some horsefeathers team wants to try it out to market it and sell tickets, fine but a team trying to win would be dumb to do it.
  21. Weren't the first rumors/estimates $2 billion+? Also idk if it was posted here or I saw it on twitter, think it was twitter and I want to say Passan. Everyone should go read Loria's back story with MLB ownership how he got in and basically turned the Expos/very little money (like $10 mil or less I want to say) in to his billion dollar payday with some shady deals with Selig/MLB.
  22. He's pretty much a non-prospect as a hitter. If we get him he's 100% a pitcher
  23. That first curve/slurve has some ridiculous movement
