I am curious about this because it feels pretty foundational to his MLB future. Is he one of those guys who gets 100 games into his MLB career and is putting up +7 in CF and all of a sudden it's an easy CF profile, or is he -2 and then he looks more like a second division starter(assuming he hits) or 4th OF on a contender? -
Gilbert was 7th among qualified SP in fastball velocity last year(0.1 behind Burnes) so that's why Velazquez isn't in there(also helps explain Rios).
-
Yes, one option year left. He could choose free agency if we outrighted him so probably best to keep on the 40 man(which isn't the current convo anyway), but you could see the argument to give him regular ABs for a spell until something at the MLB level changes(injury or performance)
-
Not the most relevant for today's lineup in particular, but the lack of usage for Rios is catching my eye. Only Torrens(again, why are we doing this with him) has fewer PA in the first 10 games. Part of me wonders if he's a casualty of the Seiya/Hughes activations, especially with Velazquez seizing his chance.

The Terrible Umpires Thread

Pretty much: If you click through the link it says that was a 6th percentile performance in terms of accuracy. -

In Iowa reliever news, Hughes got roughed up, but Sanders, Burdi, and Rodriguez combined for 3.1 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 4/0 K/BB -

3 starts for Mikolas, 3 games where he gives up 5+ runs -
Hosmer might be cussing out Harris for not sending him with the effort he put into getting to 3rd
-
call it
-
why does the Boog and JD bobblehead look so menacing
-
Is there another player in MLB who can make a sliding catch like that and immediately look stoned out of his mind
-
I would probably try to steal a couple more outs with Rucker with a quick hook.
-
90 minutes to play less than 3 innings, smh

Mervis HR -
lol Suarez

Gutty work from Keegan now put Madrigal at 2nd and go walk it off
-
lol come on with that ball 1 call to Rodriguez, the whole game that has been there over and over
-
It's Morgan Sword, the guy in the commissioner's office overseeing the new rules
-
Castillo really doesn't need the help he's getting at the edge of the zone
-
I might've sent down Rucker instead of Assad, but after yesterday's performance plus pitch count Assad was always going to be vulnerable(plus the org seems to like Rucker). The Torrens thing continues to be the most baffling thing I've seen from the front office in ages though. Even if you're completely certain he's gonna hit like a borderline DH, you still need 8 fielders and you're using 5 of 13 position players on C/1B/DH. Unless another one of those 5 leaves the 26 man this week, he can't survive the activation of Suzuki and Hughes. It's just completely nonsensical.

I know it's not really the point, but I can't help but have the littlest bit of side-eye at Woods Richardson headlining that 'leaderboard' when his one outing was yesterday against Iowa and he gave up 4 H (including a HR and 2 2B) and 2 BB in 3.2 IP.
