  1. Imagine how bad we'd be if they didn't care which foot guys hit the bag with when making the turn at first.
  2. http://cdn1-i.hitc-s.com/94/oliver_twist_20240.jpg
  3. That was the perfect DP ground ball but somehow the defensive positioning had no 2b there.
  4. He averaged 93.1 MPH on his fastball last year, down about 1.5 MPH from his peak.
  5. I'm going to blame Castillo for every called ball all year. Learn to frame, jerkstillo.
  6. Is it possible he just had/has issues pitching from the stretch? No. Reserve your sack-hanging space now while you still can.
  7. Jackson's going to get absurd BABIP and sequencing luck this year and everyone will be hanging off his sack.
  8. It is farm systems. Like our team president, they mean "minor leagues" when they say "organization."
  9. I fell into a YouTube rabbit hole watching old Sosa clips the other day after David's post and saw one, don't remember when, that barely snuck into the basket on a line. His second 60th, which was the only major baseball moment I've seen in person, was in the basket.
  10. I was looking on Fangraphs, which does have him -0.1 already.
  11. If I'm reading Fangraphs correctly, lefties hit 302/425/419 against Morton last year in 230 PAs.
  12. I'm not saying this game is a referendum on the viability of the rebuild, but that's exactly what I'm saying.
  13. They made a game attempt at dual fronts in the offseason of 2012-13. It's just been bookended by turds.
  14. Not saying it wouldn't be cool if they were better paid, but the real prospects had bonuses and the rest can go screw, as far as MLB is concerned, because they are only there to fill rosters.
  15. Arizona is down 4-2 in the 4th in their attempt to go 0-4 to start the year.
  16. Three offseasons, a mid-level payroll. If that's not enough to get Theo Epstein and Jed Hoyer past an 80-win cap, then are they really all that good?
  17. NL Central put up a 0.35 ERA today.
  18. If that's what it comes down to, I guess (or maybe look at the whole not signing thing). But I hold out hope that the Cubs like one of the hitters more than the media does, and that they're right.
