  1. Clifton is working on his 3rd straight stint with a GB rate under 40% and a .80 gb/fb. That's just who he is. But he does a good job of missing barrels, it appears, with his hr/9 hovering around .30-.50 and he gets a significant amount of infield flies, 24% this season so far. He's a decent pitcher. He keeps hitters off balance and induces a lot of weak contact. But that only gets most pitchers so far. I definitely would like to see him get that K% back up a couple ticks.
  2. What a horsefeathering dumb horsefeathers. The guy has thrown 5% strikes you horsefeathers.
  3. Our biggest issues can be found in the batted ball categories. 1st in pull%, last in oppo, 26th in hard contact. Not many hits are gonna fall when you make it that easy on the defense to position themselves. I don't care if I'm beating a dead horse - this team needs to start using the whole field, stat.
  4. Honestly always hated Vitters and his terrible approach. I was so disappointed that we were so gung-ho on him being the pick.
  5. McCullers has no-hit the Royals for 6.1 so far. Hammel has pitched a great game but allowed the lone run on a balk. And Cain breaks it up with a triple.
  6. Hannemann has 5 steals in the last 2 days Eloy is 2/3 with a walk
  7. Nolan just made that look ridiculously simple Really need to get the ball in the air
  8. These [expletive] have beat us in 3 straight series. Let's go Cubs! Punch back!
  9. Half of KBs dongs have just barely made it out lol. All count the same though.
  10. here's the full text: I would assume that's more about infidelity than DV, although I guess he could have threatened her via text. NM
  11. Do they "suspend" him until the investigation is completed? I've had that feeling they will.
  12. And Schwarbs probably played the shoulder to cry on which led to slipping the tip in and telling her she needs to leave Addi. They've had this animosity brewing, the core players have known about it but have tried to play through it. Now the cat's out of the bag and everyone is relieved. Hell, just coincedence that Kyle broke out with his best game after her post was published? (I don't believe any of this. Just having fun explaining the reason for so much shitty this season)
  13. Warriors just stole this game in the final 3 minutes
  14. I didn't want to say anything but I feel like he had 5 should've been infield singles with the speed he's shown in the past in this series alone.
  15. Not sure now that he's possibly turning a corner, but they still need 3B production and it seems like Candelario should interest them. When I originally brought him up I was thinking a Candy+Clifton based package. If Happ were necessary, then I agree with you. The thing is, I think Theo is trying to make Happ, Eloy, and Cease untouchable. I just don't see him going for Archer or another TORP like Quintana. I think he'll be looking for an ascending guy who is kind of under the radar. Guys whose shine has dimmed slightly but still show the talent. So those are the guys I'm looking at.
  16. Keep going oppo Kyle, good things will come
  17. But he suuuuucks, his "good" years have come with FIPs between 4.2-4.5. I wouldn't mind throwing them a prospect to rent Garcia before or after a bigger trade. He's 25 years old with 280 MLB innings. I know you don't think you can make that declaration so soon.
  18. He seems to be recognizing high pitches better
