  1. The Brewers really do well taking advantage of our offensive approach. Dammit Pete that was your pitch. And then what the horsefeathers was that?
  2. That was a good pitch Dansby and you look like a moron throwing your bat
  3. Jesus Christ Bote that pitch was a friggin meatball. Should have been demolished.
  4. Nico probably should be on 2nd. Seiya just got a very favorable call for once.
  5. So, Mo rocked a golden sombrero tonight. Anyone watch? See anything that stood out in his approach?
  6. His last 8-10 starts his metrics have actually been that of the exact type of pitcher a playoff team should want. Something like a 50:5 KBB. I'm optimistic. Get him while he's cooking. The Cubs send 10M back and the return could be quite good.
  7. Morel almost airmails the most routine play he's had all day. What a play by Busch. The defense has been fire tonight.
  8. Contreras was so confident Rea hit the perfect out of zone location that he started to the dugout before the ump even made the call
  9. Yeah no horsefeathers. 40M per without blinking an eye.
  10. Even though we have a couple-few guys who possibly need to DH soon, I want Rooker.
  11. Because they highly value experience. Nice to get a W. The pitching continues to roll.
  12. Brutal AB by Mastro again. Not one pitch in the zone.
  13. Javi with 6 walks and 10 outs recorded. Get it together. Edit: bad call by ump on Ortiz but who cares.
  14. I swear you could put all the best players from each team on the NL and they'd still lose
  15. I'm perfectly calm dude
  16. Looking at their draft I just can't see how they haven't saved a horsefeathers ton.
  17. It may not be a negative thing. He looks like a guy who is a good bet to be a well above-average hitter. But I expect a large increase in grounders converted into outs at the MLB level.
  18. IDK but his career-high FB rate was last year at 26.9 and this year it's about 23, with 50% GB. I guess it's not fair to label it as that - he hits a lot of line drives - but results-wise, a lot of his batted balls end up on the ground, well over 50% for his career. I think to get results like that, I lean toward: elite pitch recognition and ability to make contact and probably "hits it where it's pitched" extraordinarily well. This guy is pretty confounding. He's not fast. How does he hit like that with 50% of his BIP pulled, and on the ground?
  19. I think it needs to come via trade. Unfortunately I think Paredes is the only option and he will have a lot of suitors. Maybe Jonathan India and move him there? This is what I am saying, there's like 4 realistic upgrade options combined at those 2 positions. I guess going just for league average offense could work but I hope as a last resort.
  20. What do you guys think Jacob Wilson's offense will look like in the Majors? Currently at AAA i believe he has more XBH than whiffs, hitting 398/444/639 with 3 Ks in 90 PA, which is just a hair thinner than his AA line was. But is his GB-heavy approach gonna get swallowed up in the Majors and he'll struggle to be average?
