  1. I said a month ago, Leiter, Merryweather and Alzolay needed to go on the IL because all 3 of them looked off. Think they are praying Leiters arm doesn't fall off until Alzolay is ready to come back
  2. Would help if his middle infield could turn a routine double play
  3. This team is just full of chokers. Defense completely falling apart. Will not win anything if they make it to the postseason
  4. With a FIP near 5 I wouldnt call him useful. Just a warm body
  5. Debatable, if I remember correctly the entire lineup was hot during that stretch.
  6. Candelario has picked right back with his sucking, Herz pitched well in his brief time with the Nats too. That trade will go down being real ugly.
  7. Hopefully Hoyer has learned his lesson. This scrapheap bullpen construction got lucky results for a few seasons. It not an ideal way to build a bullpen. And with how important bullpens are you can't just Hope horsefeathers sticks against the wall. He better sign some high end bullpen arms this offseason. Starting with a legitimate closer.
  8. Rub it in bro, I'll be doing the same when he hits like a potato
  9. You dont understand the difference between AAA and MLB pitching?
  10. He's probably gonna get a hit here because baseball is cruel, but with Young coming up that send makes a lot of sense.
  11. We know what kind of hitter Young is, he's been up before and he's been mid. We know how's he's fared at AAA over a large sample size. I will take the upside and talent the other young kids offer over a guy who has shown he's nothing special. Flukey one year wonders from old dudes who have seen AAA pitching over a number of years is pretty common.
  12. A near 30 year old dude having a career year at AAA is a lot less likely to have any success at the major league level. Canario had a good game and was immediately benched. I think it's clear who should be playing.
  13. Young getting a start. Ross will play ANYONE, but Canario and PCA lmao
  14. I'd rather them get a better draft pick than watch them get swept in the playoffs. I'm just being real, of course I'd prefer to see them in the playoffs but they can't beat the rockies or pirates right now because of the state of their pitching staff. It might be surprising but teams in the playoffs are going to be more talented than the rockies.
  15. Coming from the guy who was happy when the bullpen imploded in the reds series, ill gladly be on the opposite end of what you consider intelligent.
  16. Steeles arm is about to fall off and the bullpen is completely ineffective. You think this team can score 10+ each night against playoff teams? Or do you think getting slapped in the playoffs is a good experience for a team like this. Just take the better draft pick IMO
  17. They wouldn't make it that far in the playoffs with their pitching in shambles anyway. Better to miss the postseason now IMO.
  18. Would be funny if they got slammed by the pirates and rockies and then ended up beating up the Brewers and Braves. Probably won't happen tho
  19. Bad throw by happ. Great job by nico, terrible job by mastroboner.
  20. Seems like he wants to get the offseason started early to spend some time with his wife who is recovering from surgery.
  21. Good to see Tauchman and Mastroboner back in there. :))
