  1. I never felt that good about the Wright selection so him sucking is just annoying me a ton. Our offense is in big trouble if that OL continues like this. If the OL does belly-up and teams dominate TOP, our defense will get worn out.
  2. Cody opt out, trade for Rooker (Alcantara probably in play, I assume they would want Brown or Horton), sign Flaherty, Robertson, Scott, Minter Plumb every inch of the possible upgrades at C (incl Rushing and other young prospects), but I don't think there's a lot that can be done there. PCA - CF Happ - LF Seiya - RF Rooker - DH Busch - 1B Swanson - SS Paredes - 3B Nico - 2B Amaya or addition Steele, Flaherty, Shota, Taillon, Assad and crew This is a lot of $ to spend on a pen from where I traditionally stand, but I am a huge believer in Robertson and I see LHRP as the staff's biggest weakness, especially if Little doesn't rebound.
  3. Really gotta navigate the Rooker/Butler duo wth great caution. Although
  4. Every offense is gonna have a few successful plays and move the chains here and there. They have 0 explosive plays. They've scored 23 points. They've been horrific.
  5. Poles did all of that work only to leave an OL much like the 09-11 (I think) J Webb days.
  6. Then you should admit there have been no flashes
  7. 1 TD on a short field in 7 quarters is crap dude lol
  8. Put Tyson in there. Not even kidding.
  9. You don't see any flashes, be honest. They've been absolute dog horsefeathers. Poles tarnished a lot of the good work he did by the total crap that is the OL. Passing on Stroud to gain some more picks is looking like a huge miss. and I say that as someone who was all about trading 1.1.
  10. What a fun box score for the Iowa hitters
  11. He'd get a combine invite Probably run a 4.6 or 4.7 I'd guess a higher percentile with the 3-cone, 7.0 High vert and broad jump for sure 20-25 reps Impressive receiver drills 6th-UDFA sounds probable
  12. Apparently he was relegated to bp duty and told teammates he just wanted the season to be over with. What a dipshit.
  13. Sometimes I wonder where a guy like Payton would be drafted these days, or if he even would be at all.
  14. How many of those were against the horsefeathers Packers
  15. That was a preposterously stupid steal attempt. Totally ready for Tommy Edman to win a silver slugger with the Dodgers. What a horsefeathers joke.
  16. Bowden Francis has had 2 no-hit bids broken up in the 9th inning in his last 4 starts. First pitcher since Nolan to have that happen in a season, let alone a few weeks time. Googled how many times Nolan had that happen in his career and 5 is the answer. That man was simply insane, nearly had 12 no-hitters. I'd love to know how his stuff graded.
  17. Chances he signs a minor league deal with us?
  18. Last night I said to myself, I'm kind of surprised PCA hasn't gotten a fg article yet https://blogs.fangraphs.com/its-all-about-makin-that-pca/ A+ for the title
  19. Now in a stretch of 150 PA/quarter's season worth of a 149 wRC+ with a sub-20 K rate and a 91 EV. Just immensely surprising in-season development. I have a hard time believing he won't be a leage-average hitter, at least, and feel deep down he will be more in the 120 range in his prime. Potential for being a top 10 position player by fwar is definitely there.
  20. It sucks that he can only rob homers on the road.
  21. Or maybe Hawkins just didn't want to trade for Paredes and lose Bigge and Johnson (whoa, look at his A+ numbers with TBR)
