    As bad as Castro's been, still think they walk him with how much contact he makes.
  2. Gilby
    Oh wow.
  3. Gilby
    Damnit, Ned. Save Davis for when you have the lead.
  4. Gilby
    Trying for second base with 2 outs was absolutely the right call.
  5. Gilby
    There is no reason for the homeplate ump to call that a swing, but alright.
  6. Gilby
    why are we walking people today
  7. Gilby
    I would've left Wada in, but these conditions suit Wood as well.
  8. Gilby
    That's 2 should-be dongs.
  9. Gilby
    He's been asked. Castro makes a lot more contact than Soler and splits up the lefties.

    Javy finished 2-4 with a 2B, BB, and a K. The double came off Jay Jackson.
  11. Gilby
    Man, our top prospects these last few years have done some mean things to the Southern League. What Javy did as a 20 year old SS was ridiculous, then Bryant topped him last year, and Schwarber is essentially doing the same as him with better K/BB numbers.
  12. Gilby
    Well, what say you? Keep him at catcher where he'd theoretically have the most value, but we'd have to wait and there's more of an injury risk OR Move him to LF where he can stay healthy and we can enjoy the dongs and the walks relatively soon
  13. Gilby
    Yeah, now that he appears he can be a .900+ OPS monster in the majors, I think you put him in LF and let him mash. The bat is ready now, but his defense at catcher might not be until middle-late next season, or even 2017. Plus, the moves the front office made this past offseason showed they value defense at catcher; it'd be strange if they changed their minds so soon and put someone who will be mediocre at best back there. This would be a little trickier if Bryant looked terrible at 3B, but that hasn't been the case. I know the Cubs have spoken highly of Schwarber's defensive improvements, but they have no reason to say otherwise. We also haven't heard much from people outside the org other than Law who just said recently Schwarber's not very good back there.

    Schwarber's 1-2 with a 2B and 2 BB so far. So exciting we have another Bryant coming. Black continues to pitch well - 5 innings 6/1 K/BB Gleyber is 2-4 with a 2B and a K
  15. Gilby
    Looks like the wind could be blowing in the next few days. I don't love our chances vs the Royals in a battle of contact and defense.
  16. Gilby
    Losing this game 7-6 would hurt my soul a little.
  17. Gilby
    If you can't put the ball in play on 100 mph fastballs and diving 90 mph changeups, you have no business playing.
  18. Gilby
    I'll take it, but I really wanted to see Bryant square up a fastball and watch it go 800 feet.
  19. Gilby
    Given Law and McDaniel have both said the Red Sox are in on Benintendi and that Cameron apparently has high bonus demands, I'm a little surprised Callis thinks Benintendi is more likely to be there at #9.
  20. Gilby
    Need more fly balls.
  21. Gilby
    After he missed ball 3, that pitch was going to be called a strike as long as it ended up in Perez's glove.
  22. Gilby
    Nobody make a comment about the rollover. That was payback for lining out to RF.
  23. Gilby
    3 fly balls, 3 homers
  24. Gilby
    Volquez is lucky that was only a double with that location.
  25. Gilby
    Love all of these doubles from Russell.
