    As a Liverpool fan that would be extremely fun, but as a USMNT fan I'm not super jazzed about another situation where Pulisic is in a dogfight for playing time. At least Liverpool has a lot less dysfunction so it would presumably be a less capricious thing than it was at Chelsea. Personally I liked the Milan rumors a bit better for his long term trajectory.
  2. Transmogrified Tiger
    I dunno guys maybe with a few more tries the fastball over the outer half might get by Donovan
  3. Transmogrified Tiger
    I noticed this too, Madrigal was staring him down as he jogged to the dugout
  4. Transmogrified Tiger
    why is Morel leaving to back up 2nd on that pitch
  5. Transmogrified Tiger
    when you drop the bat below your waist before the guy releases the pitch, your bunt attempt is already about doomed
  6. Transmogrified Tiger
    call it
  7. Transmogrified Tiger
    They're gonna have to put Mervis in Iowa before the 4th of July at this rate
  8. Transmogrified Tiger
    another unbelievable plate appearance by Morel
  9. Transmogrified Tiger
    almost better to just take strike 3 on that pitch, even if you catch up to it you're beating it into the ground
  10. Transmogrified Tiger
    are they really gonna let Heyward and Simmons go at it again
  11. Transmogrified Tiger
    Morel's gotta know that's do or die and you need to barehand it
  12. Transmogrified Tiger
    the sound the ball makes coming off Simmons' bat makes me wonder if he's swinging a souvenir bat he found at the ballpark
  13. Transmogrified Tiger
    this is fun i am having fun

    2 K's and shattering Goldschmidt's bat, yeah that'll do
  16. Transmogrified Tiger
    105 PA, .281/.333/.542, 6 HR, 7.6% BB%, 18% K%

    Has anyone identified an appreciable change to Swarmer's pitches or pitch mix in AAA this year? He had been donged to oblivion in Iowa in both 2019 and 2021, but his HR rate and BABIP have dropped dramatically this year. If there's some repeatable reason for that then yeah he could definitely play the Mills role for a few seasons.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    Schwindel is now over 100 PA since his 24 hour demotion and has a wRC+ of about 130 in that time
  19. Transmogrified Tiger
    Espinoza being the 27th man and not Kilian might be noteworthy for Kilian's odds of staying up
  20. Transmogrified Tiger
    Deichmann is showing some signs of life, including some pop that he hadn't really ever shown at AAA. He's 8 for his last 18 with 4 HR (!)
  21. Transmogrified Tiger
    Mervis and Ball playing like they're racing each other for a promotion to AAA, both are 2 for 2 with a HR and BB
  22. Transmogrified Tiger
    I'll guess Leiter gets outrighted, Martin recalled from the bereavement list, and Kilian gets the 27th spot for the day They fed Leiter to the wolves to ensure no other relievers went today, he's already yo-yo'd twice, and he's got less utility in the current roster(Thompson+Steele look okay as SP, Kilian is ready, Mills almost done rehabbing). Martin has been on the bereavement list since Sunday so he's probably about ready, and the only other 40 man arms that could reasonably be called up are Newcomb(still probably needs another rehab outing or 3) or Menez(a nobody that would be the 3rd lefty) .
  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    This from Sharma's piece seems to leave a decent amount of room for optimism: Davis wasn't exactly the picture of health prior to this season though so being concerned about his long term health is justified.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    seriously
  25. Transmogrified Tiger
    Could also be Espinoza again. He's on proper rest and wouldn't require any 40 man manipulations.
