Oh well, it was nice we got 2 and likely chased Felix out of the game. This offense can get 5 runs in 4 innings against their bullpen -
Rizzo seems to be completely guessing and lost at the plate tonight
-
Edwards is good
-
Christ. Just leave him in there at this point to get donged to death so the bullpen doesn't get wrecked
-
horsefeathering terrible
-
Hernandez is awful close to balking nearly every pitch out of the stretch, he's not taking a pause it seems like a lot of the time
-
Willson is getting a workout this inning
-
I would assume Montgomery and Edwards will go multiple innings tonight
-
He sucks
-
Matusz's stuff is pretty underwhelming
-
Jerome Williams sighting!!! He's pitching for the cardinals currently

New Benny, and Other changes (Bulls offseason)

I think with how the cap worked back then you basically couldn't bring all 3 of those guys in without at least 1 being an existing player on your team, i.e. you can go over the cap to resign 1 of your own players so you could afford 2 maxes (Lebron and Bosh made more than Wade in the Miami years) and then you re-sign your own guy after you have the 2 signed. -
Isn't Velazquez the guy who died like 15 pitches into a start against us in Philly?

There isn't a player in baseball we couldn't conceivably put a package together for

With his current profile he's gonna have to carry a .340-.360 BABIP to get to that slash line. Which certainly is possible but if he drops to a .260 or so BABIP guy that slash line gets pretty ugly What percentage of MLB hitters BABIP .260 for a season? Maybe that's a bit of hyperbole in my part but the point is he needs to maintain a relatively high BABIP to carry a decent slash line. How many guys carry a .340+ BABIP for an entire year that Javy currently has that also have his BB and K rates that aren't absolutely elite hitters?
-
That's at least a double off the wall probably 70-80% of the time in a mid-late summer game

Keep doing that, Jason

If he does that then of course it does not matter. The issue is the approach tends to cause players capable of doing great things to not actually do great things. If he somehow manages to flail at a ton of stuff outside the zone but still produce, good on him. The concern is that things even out. I envision Baez at around .270/325/465 right around 800 OPS. I think many people underrate him bc many thought he would be a superstar. But, I think he settles around those numbers with a versatile glove. And I think he's a very valuable part of the future. With his current profile he's gonna have to carry a .340-.360 BABIP to get to that slash line. Which certainly is possible but if he drops to a .260 or so BABIP guy that slash line gets pretty ugly

Kris Bryant is a golden god
-
Lester's era back to under 3
-
It's absurd to assume he's a .800+ ops player no questions asked with his profile. All it takes is some bad BABIP luck and his K rate to spike a bit and you are looking at maybe a .600 OPS player.
-
It's gonna rain before the 5th. There will just be a long delay. And thus the great 100 year Chicago drought started
-
Okay just flail and pitches the next two innings to make sure we get 4.5 in
