  1. Hopefully Baez can be awesome and overshadow a day of Cubs fans whining about the first Garza trade.
  2. If we called him and Soler up right now I'm fairly confident we'd play well enough to end up outside of protected pick status. Just 4.5 back of 11th Does that take into account the fact that everyone is pushed down one spot because of the Astros [expletive] over, I mean, not signing Aiken? No. 11th place in the reverse standings, 12th pick. First unprotected pick.
  3. Those are fun and I love the post, but it's worth remembering that Bryant's are based on BABIPing six-thousand, and Soler's are an awfully small sample.

  5. It's different when it's already 5/8ths of the way there with the rest in AAA. Next year they're going to be hitting HRs every single day except all in the MLB club and it is going to be glorious.
  6. "Oh man, another solid fly out ... wait, I think that's gonna get over their heads ... it's gone!"
  7. You get to have Javier Baez on your favorite team.
  8. He got sick of BABIP being a thing and just hit all his balls OOP. wOBA .519
  9. Great interview. I loved the Manny story but my favorite part was Bryant talking about his approach. "The ball in the air is where the hits are... something like 89% of balls hit on the ground in the big leagues are outs." It just came across as thoughtful. I'm also almost positive it's wrong.
  10. I saw Sosa's second 60th. That's about the only awesome moment I've seen live.
  11. Welp, I'm sold. You flipped me on my "LeMahieu > Baez" stance
  12. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG, YOU [expletive] BUZZKILL. it's Casi Old SS Not Javy
  13. Not crushed, but cleared the fence pretty easily down the LF line. High fly ball. Castro, on the other hand, he just murdered a ball to left. That's where the real power is. Everybody gets HRs off the balls they crush. Getting under it and getting it out is how you hit 40
  14. Every other LFer on our roster makes that catch
  15. Absolutely nothing in Alcantara's stat line looks unusual right now. He's not getting any variance in any direction.
  16. Yeah, it's meatball lefties in the thin air. But I'll take it.
  17. Baez hit it so hard the LFer couldn't even handle it.
