  1. It's really too bad Lackey's wife wasn't able to get the dentures in the divorce
  2. I mean if that ball got out we should hit at least 5 HR's today
  3. Giving up too much. I'm thinking Almora and Underwood because they need someone to play CF for Trout and Richards is dead. So that fills their needs. What would a legitimate unbeatable offer look like? Baez, Hendricks, Soler, Edwards, Vogelbach, Contreras, Schwarber, McKinney, Candelario and Underwood for Trout? It won't happen but could you imagine an outfield defense of Bryant, Trout and Heyward? Russell, Schwarber, Contreras, Almora, Torres and whatever pitching prospect they value the most and sure throw in Vogelbach since it's an AL team for Trout and Simmons (to take Russell's spot).
  4. 17 runs in 5 innings for the Rockies now
  5. Garret Richards still hasn't recovered from the first game of the year against us as he's missing tomorrows start due to fatigue. No word if it's mental or physical fatigue.
  6. The Rockies may beat us in the race to the first 20+ run game this year. They have 15 in the 5th with runners on 2nd and 3rd and only 1 out.
  7. His home stadium having a little league distance wall in LF doesn't hurt. I also think he's Arrieta like in his workout/diet regemine
  8. Rondon was warming up in the 8th for a bit so maybe he's just ready if needed and that's why he wasn't throwing. Anyways, lol Rondon save situations
  9. After seeing that Zimmerman throw I wouldn't be surprised if we see the runner on 1st and 3rd play we did in the Pirates series where the runner on first intentionally gets into a runs down/pick off to force Zimmerman to throw sometime this series if the situation arises.
  10. they also got their catcher from the stands And the best hitter so far this year got thrown out early in the game
  11. I would hope he has at least Wood getting loose to face Harper if guys get on to start the inning
  12. Maybe I'm forgetting someone but we've probably had the biggest position player injury/loss of any team in the league with Schwarber.
  13. Hendricks should pitch on 10 days rest every start
  14. I'm hoping he becomes this years Starlin. struggles/sits most games for a while, while they work on things with him and then something just clicks/he gets hot for a few months when he starts getting more playing time.
  15. Justin Upton only has a .250 BA with a .381 BABIP, a 2% BB rate and 36% K rate will do that.
  16. I was one of the brave enough ones of the 11%
  17. I absolutely would love to have him and I get that might not be enough but that's probably the most I'd want to give up to get him, maybe add in a lottery ticket guy like Hudson or Cease if you have to. I wouldn't go much more when you look at the other guys you could get at that price or less that could produce nearly as much.
  18. Having it be Molina or Wainwright or Martinez would be great. But yeah, I don't really care even if it's them other than the comedy/self-righteous fans response. Really ~90% of PEDs should be allowed if they don't carry some egregious long term health effects as a byproduct, IMO. Give us the best product possible and keep the players as healthy as possible
  19. All these stats/factoids are awesome and the crazy thing is other than the pitching a little bit and Fowler nobody is way outperforming what they should be doing and there's not a lot of negative regression to be prepared for, if anything it's mostly positive regression we are in store for. #WeAreGood
