    That was beautiful by Javy

    Jesus Christ. That was almost as bad as Montgomery's throw yesterday.

    That's what's so weird about him. Like he hasn't been Chatwood or anything outside of two or three starts, and it's perfectly normal for any guy to have a handful of those a year, but he still had an 11.2% walk rate coming into today. He's just walked an extra guy per game for whatever reason this year.

    Quintana has a 3.66 ERA since the 4/14 game against Atlanta where it was 34 degrees and sleeting the whole time. And a 4.66 FIP

    Q looks good. Unfortunately Q has Ryan Dempster disease, where he can look great for three innings, give up 5 runs, and then look great for three more innings like nothing happened.

    Willing to be proven wrong by replay, but he looked to be very much in foul territory there.

    Having Zobrist at 2b shows just how special the Addy/Javy MI is.
  9. Bertz
    Wow....okay
  10. Bertz
    No way Andy Green got the call to challenge this in under 30 seconds. That was quite a wait. Which is weird because it definitely hit him.
  11. Bertz
    Wow that sounded like a big ol' dong off the bat

    Willson bailed Joe out Stop letting our poor hitting pitchers swing away in double play situations. There was a really bad Quintana one earlier this year, against the Giants I think.

    That's what he always looks like when he's slumping. The question is just if this is just a normal slump or if he's gonna be broken for two years again.

    That caught stealing was full on baseball porn. Perfect throw and a Javy tag.

    I believe there's a clause in the CBA that says TJ guys can be on a rehab assignment for up to 30 days, so I'd imagine the plan is to bring him back right when rosters expand. Any sooner and it either says great things about his progress or terrible things about faith in our current pitchers.
  16. Bertz
    Yeah we're seeing a lot of 94. It's probably just first start adrenaline but if that's the new normal for him I'd be very bullish.

    The Brewers dismantling their defense to bring their offense up to respectability is fun.
  18. Bertz
    Meadows and Glassnow feels pretty comparable to something like Happ and Alzolay. Pirates guys with a little more risk/reward. I don't know that I would have paid that for Archer but I don't know that I wouldn't have either.

    Extremely Meh If we were going to grab someone so pedestrian. I would have preferred someone who really excels in one particular area. Now that Kintzler's groundball rate has evaporated, he's just thoroughly mediocre at everything.
  20. Bertz
    Matt Harvey is clearly not broken anymore and if you're a glass half full guy you might even call him average. However, even with our rotation's struggles there's no one I'd want him to replace post-Chatwood.

    When you see what these RPs are going for we pretty easily could’ve matched most of the packages with just minor leaguers that it’s taken to get them. I think we will get something still and think it might even be something pretty good/cool yet. Yeah I think Kirby Yates might be the only reliever on the block who would have an acquisition cost that causes any consternation.
  22. Bertz
    He's a proven soft contact guy with an elite groundball rate who even in a down year is very strong against righties. He's basically a B+ Steve Cishek clone.

    Yeah. I'd love a better lefty on lefty guy than Rosario. though that's nitpicking (and maybe Smyly is that guy). Regardless, that pen is good and deep. Joe can have a super quick hook and we shouldn't have to worry about burning them out.
