  1. Get the strategy with the DH tomorrow. All these close games is not ideal. Hopefully we get out of this and scratch one for palencia to wrap up
  2. Nah. Hes still a shiny new toy so he must be better than the options we have right now. Easy 40 HR a year once he gets ABs…all of four people did that last year, so expectations are totally reasonable
  3. I can’t even begin to stress how much the people who hate on Dansby, Happ, etc will hate even a successful Owen Caissie offensive profile, let alone the one that likely struggles for half a season.
  4. Are you guys talking about a different PCA and Caissie?
  5. I find it really hard to imagine a scenario where the cubs play 500 ball the rest of the way (or even whatever 11-13 ball is) and don’t make the playoffs. The reds just aren’t that good and the math gets tough quick. Which is another way of saying that if the cubs somehow miss the playoffs, and I (obviously) trust the math on their odds, it will be entirely their fault and so worrying about other teams just doesn’t really do anything for me.
  6. I mean, sure, but those are meaningless when ‘confidence ‘ is a 10% chance to win and ‘hope’ is 8%
  7. but you haven't calculated the impact of The Spark
  8. Nico is comfortably my favorite player since the WS team
  9. You could make an argument that for a two inning sample, Happ/Tucker/Castro wouldn't be worse than Turner. But also, if that were the case we'd probably have seen it at some point.
  10. Suzuki is objectively the better hitter but Turner King at half the rate he does against LHP has me torn on this decision.
  11. I've got 23rd per FG. And 14th in wRC. So mediocre and unlucky, but not terrible. But also not trending in the right direction.
  12. christ that was the one thing you couldn't let happen
  13. Yeah I mean, I don't know. He doesn't walk guys. Basically just pounding the zone with mid 90s fastballs and hanging curves. Better than letting him get ahead?
  14. It wasn't even a DP situation, not sure what I was thinking, working at like 20% efficiency here apparently.
  15. Kyle Tucker do not ground into a 4-6-3/3-6-3 challenge
