  1. In case you aren't paying attention to Iowa tonight, Caissie had himself a game. I really hope Hoyer can avoid trading him Owen Caissie tonight: 5-5 1 HR 2 Doubles 2 RBIs 2 Runs
  2. Just saw today is Turner 15th, maybe now he can retire 🤷‍♂️ Lol
  3. Be awesome if Hoyer can get a RHer to pitch between him and Imanaga
  4. Wouldn't surprise me if he an add on in an upcoming trade.
  5. I prefer him in LF at WF for the next 10+ years
  6. Should be out of it with overturn.. I swear what do these umps look at when they make these calls, is the game too fast for them now
  7. Fucks.. Always a couple dink and doinks before it blows up Let Go
  8. This guy better be in LF for the Cubs in 2026
  9. Lol.. Per @ESPNStatsInfo: Justin Turner (40) stealing on Rich Hill (45) is the first instance of a 40+ year old runner stealing a base off of a 40+ year old pitcher since Craig Biggio did so against David Wells on July 26, 2007
  10. Hill would be a perfect reliever to bring in before or after a guy throwing 100+ 😅
  11. I cant believe it been 13 years since Moyer pitched, feels like i just saw him pitching last season 😅 Wonder who'll be the next 45 yo SP we'll be watching and remembering his rookie season lol
  12. Do major league players ever adjust their spot in box to a pitcher? They know he coming with slow curves after slow curves with an occasional FB that might reach 90, so why not move up in the box and not be so far out in front to where youre hitting pop up and soft grounders
  13. Lmao, WF crowd always cracks me up with the roar for every ball in the air 🤣
  14. Hmmmm 😏😏😏 lol https://x.com/ESPN1000/status/1947772982450917521?t=69nP87XPNEzhHSfm6Ikb8A&s=19
  15. Those guys are pretty much extinct now, because teams dont build up their pitching in their system to throw over 100 pitches to go 8-9 innings anymore. SP are being brought up to go about 90 pitches and hope it can get them into the 7th at best, but in most cases the red flag is being waved once a SP hits 80 pitches or the 3rd time through a batting order, and yes theres a very small amount of starters now that can actually be counted on to get outs a third time through.
  16. Just saying that it cant be much enjoyable for you to continue watching if you have low confidence in those SP, especially Imanaga, to win games the rest of season or in the postseason, what the joy in that ?
  17. Sorry to say this, but you probably should just stop watching then if you have zero confidence in any of these guys. I mean, what the point of watching the rest of the season if you dont expect them to succeed or be competitive enough to win games the rest of year and into the postseason? Imanaga their guy, if you have no confidence in him winning games in the postseason, like i said you might as well stop watching 🤷‍♂️
  18. Imanaga is a guy we can trust to match up well against any opposing number one they will face in the postseason. After him is the question... Boyd is having a career year for himself, can he continue and continue it into the postseason is questionable, let hope so. The number 3 guy in the postseason rotation is where Hoyer needs to put his big boy GM pants on and figure out who and how to bring in another quality starter to go with Imanaga and Boyd, preferably one that can match up and pitch game 2, with Boyd being questionable for now as far as if he can continue having this great season, having him match up against opponents number 3 would be preferable.
