  2. The only comfort I had last night was that if the Cubs are tied with MIL, they play the tiebreaker in Chicago and the Cubs can deploy their only weapon against the Brewers, Quintana. No guarantee the offense would score a single run, but we got that going for us, which is nice.
  3. They were two out away from it being an official game and now it’s in a rain delay. Supposed to thunderstorm for several hours. The delay call was very preemptive. It didn’t look like it was raining much there. This lead may get washed away.
  4. Chatwood - definitely Darvish - probably just because so much of the perceived value is tied to the first couple seasons Morrow - eh, maybe. It’s not too unexpected though and he’s excellent when out there Cishek - sign 5 of him
  5. I'd rather keep Happ unless Chatwood is going back too and they're picking up his contact, which would never happen. I hope the Minor Leaguers are fringy types... It's a fake Rosenthal so no trade for Archer.
  6. Apparently Orioles are close to a deal with Victor Victor Mesa. They chose this year of all years to care. Oh well at least he’s not going to the Dodgers.
  7. Hurts specifically in the knee area
  8. And he struck out 2 more this inning. Looked like a solid change and curve.
  9. Richan strikes out three in the first. Allowed a bloop single. FB mostly 92. Didn’t get a good look at any secondaries.
  10. I haven't seen any other velocity readings from the Em's games that make me scratch my head. I'm thinking Marquez may actually be that guy, which is exciting. That's terrific velocity from a LHP. Agreed. That's a very exciting development. He’s looking really good. All 96s and I saw two 97s. Curve has been the better off speed, but has snapped off a few solid changeups. Curve is 79-84. My goodness, I heard Kelli was fast, but he had a no doubt infield hit and ran an excellent ball towards the right center gap.
  11. At the Em’s game. Marquez has looked really solid. Lots of babip bad luck and some bad defense. Still not sure if hot gun, but consistent 96 on the fastball.
  12. [tweet] [/tweet] Whoa! That's pretty surprising. Figured he'd get closer to slot.
  13. First pants related injury of the year? At least our closer didn’t break his hand punching a wall after getting beat by the Marlins.
  14. And Richan was quoted as saying he was expecting 4-6th rounds. $450k is slightly above slot for our pick in the 4th round. Fingers crossed for the figure being correct. Otherwise I’m curious where we found the funds to pay our HS picks.
  15. It was the Diamondbacks and they drafted Cory Hahn. I believe they’ve since named the 34rd round selection the Cory Hahn selection in his honor.
  16. Looks like he deleted it, but here's the screen cap. Would have been a big hit with the StL fans. The internet saves it forever, kids.
  17. [tweet] [/tweet] I'm a huge fan of Gimenez catching Chatwood. Hell, even if he becomes his personal catcher that's fine. J Hey up again hitting 2nd against a RHP.
  18. That can’t be good unless Tommy has bad sources. Unfortunately not [tweet] [/tweet]
  19. Do they want those players or do they want the privilege to fail them on their physicals when the deal gets close?
  20. Rodriguez went 10, Larnach 21, Rocker 22, Casas 23, Weathers 25, Eierman 26, Scott 27, and Denaburg 32. Jonathan India went 4! Rodriguez is definitely a big helium guy, but someone I'd love in the 2nd is Adam Kloffenstein. He has a bit of a Grayson Rodriguez starter package. Kloffenstein from MLB Pipeline: Rodriguez from MLB Pipeline: We definitely have a bit of room to take some HS talent in the first couple rounds.
  21. Well Tyson Miller had an excellent game (7 shutout ip, 3 h, 7/1 k/bb) so if he’s turned a corner this season that would be a nice development.
  22. Bulls win tiebreaker with Kings so they’re set for 6th pending lottery. The Pelicans pick is 22nd.
