Zip it Brian. You pile on any chance you see.
-
What's your evidence for this? This is just more libelous conspiracy garbage from you. horsefeathers off. You've been reported.
-
Excuse me? Based on his body language. Are you calling me a racist or something? 😂 GTFO with that nonsense, and don't listen to that fool who makes up weird conspiracy theories about me in his own nutty head. PCA has also been overconfident and it's affected his play, wtf does ethnicity have to do with that?
-
Because i believe it to be true, and it probably contributes to high chase % What i said didn't have anything to do with his performance against deGrom, as i mentioned. And it was true before his slump.
-
Would love to see how much ejections go down this year with ABS.
-
I'm not going to criticize the guy against deGrom, but Mo is definitely overly aggressive generally. A bit too cocky for his own good. Hopefully he adjusts.
-
Does he though? It's above-average stuff for sure, but hitters tee off on both his fastballs. Makes it difficult to succeed if you can't establish your fb. His velo is also down this year and was down even more this start.
-
They just bailed on 2026. Would think Robbie Ray et al are available.
-
Rangers stadium has a dead depressing vibe and that team plays fiat too.
-
I wouldn't trade Shaw for a SP rental. Would be really nice to have a Peralta type but pitchers get hurt frequently as we've seen. I'm not trading key position player assets for a pitcher unless they're clearly expendable, which Shaw isnt. I think Hoyer has been very wise to pin most of our money/resources on position players.

Reds (Lowder) vs Cubs (Imanaga): 5/7/26, 1:20pm
Stratos replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
I'm completely shocked at how much he's improved his swing decisions lately. Looks like a whole new hitter. If he keeps it up the sky is the limit for him. -
At least we have Brown and Assad, those are solid options probably as good as any trade we could make right now. We should know much more on Steele and Boyd's situation by the trade deadline so until then Hoyer can probably focus on bolstering the pen. Wicks has been back throwing in Iowa. The stats on just about every pitcher in Iowa are horrible. Need more depth.

Source? BN says it was a "trim" per Hawkins, out over a month. Let's hope back before ASB.
-
Bregman must be the most mediocre athlete to be 4 WAR player. But he does the little things. High skill, high baseball IQ player. I have faith in him.
-
I think that's 11 or 12 in a row at Wrigley. 11 at the very least.
-
Kilian averaged 94mph his last 2 years with us so he now has a 3 mph velo bump
-
Wonder if the neck thing is related to his getting beaned in the head.
-
Impressive recovery for Taillon. I thought he was toast when the homers were hit
-
I was very impressed by the Padres catcher who ran after a loose ball in the dirt while tapping his head with a runner at 3rd because he had to get the challenge off.
-
Kilian is back with SF and averaging 97mph this year.
-
Last 14 games PCA hitting .292/.393/.438 for a 140 wRC+ with 10.7% BB% Shaw hitting .400/.444/.560 for a 186 wRC+
-
Counsell to PCA: Against LHP don't swing at anything unless it looks right down the middle. PCA: Ok.
-
If everyone else is healthy come Oct we have Shota, Boyd, Cabrera as SP 1-3 for the playoffs. Id take anything from Steele that's better than Taillon/Rae as our 4th.
-
Not sure if mentioned in last night's thread but Taylor said during last broadcast that Palencia was doing some throwing off a mound and may be back in about a week.
-
At the beginning of the broadcast Taylor said it's a flexor in his throwing arm, had imaging done, his repaired elbow/UCL is fine, but CC said Steele won't be back until after the ASB. Was previously on pace for about early June return.
