    That Cain contract is going to age incredibly poorly for the Brewers. He’s 33 and he’s got three more years and $51M left after this year. Even if the Cubs got 2018 Adam Jones OPSing .732 and playing a bad right field, he’d be pretty easily worth the $3M the D-Backs are paying him just to get Almora’s bat out of the lineup. People do this all the time: they love to point out that the back end of a contract could be ugly but completely gloss over the fact that they're possibly going to get surplus value on the deal by year 3. Last year he was 6.9 bWAR and 5.7 fWAR and this year he's added another 1 to each of them in the first 6th of the season, so he's well on pace to do that again. That will cover the 80m contract and then some if he gets to 12 WAR. Who gives a crap about what happens thereafter.

    Could've just signed Cain for a quarter of that and won the division by almost 10 games last season

    Bryzzo needs to be Bryzzo. Sick of their garbage.

    10 horsefeathering Ks hell yeah Kyle
  5. We Got The Whole 9
    Making him throw 109 pitches in 4 innings lol
  6. We Got The Whole 9
    CW11 may be right; he could be concussed.

    This catcher must be the best framer in the game. These calls are atrocious.

    Willy was like 97, Heyward was 101. Hmm, felt like they were much better than that
  9. We Got The Whole 9
    In my mind, Willy and Heyward hit bombs today. What were the EVs on those batted balls?

    I never said they were weak players. What I did say was that Schwarber skill set is better served as a DH and Russell's reputation as a #1 prospect might influence another team in trade negotiations. Also, I said that both could be replaced rather easily (internally, trade, or FA). As I said before, it's hard to say who we might get in return when the FO refused to consider trading either of them. Obviously both have lost trade value in the last two years, but both can still play regularly on some team. Kyle Schwarber is one of the best LF in the game defensively and you don't know how to evaluate talent as well as you believe you do.

    Of course Yelich homers off of Jansen in the 9th Dodgers won though
  12. We Got The Whole 9
    Cedeno pitched for the Smokies Walk Single K Double Fielders choice reach Rucker replaced him Single GO HR 4 runs charged to Cedeno
  13. We Got The Whole 9
    5 scoreless innings and only 1 walk from Oscar
  14. We Got The Whole 9
    Never in my life did I expect to see a tweet from Corey Black
  15. We Got The Whole 9
    I feel like it will take less than 1000 for him to do it again

    Mike Trout's slash is 382/593/882 - 563/272 and he's doing it with a 308 BABIP. He's turning into Bonds (4:1 BBK). Its absolutely nuts. I think everybody knew there was much room to grow still but if he can keep something like this up, holy horsefeathering horsefeathers. Sorry to derail the thread but I peeped his page a bit ago and Almora is so boring to talk about. The FO must still have enormous hopes for him.

    I like how we can often score 5+ runs
  18. We Got The Whole 9
    Zobrist got more than Hendricks
  19. We Got The Whole 9
    Woof Kyle, you're almost at a run per inning
  20. We Got The Whole 9
    [expletive] he can't even get Cozart out
  21. We Got The Whole 9
    For the first time ever KB is out of the lineup and I couldn't care less
  22. We Got The Whole 9
    Bellinger obviously wont keep this up but [expletive] what he's done so far is impressive. He has more HR than Ks (swing strike% half of career rate also) right now. 1.5 fwar in 15 games.
  23. We Got The Whole 9
    That was a quick ass game. 2:30 to be exact.
  24. We Got The Whole 9
    I hope he gets the 9th
  25. We Got The Whole 9
    Ooh I got the willies
