It's a little weird, they're starting him everywhere. 1B, LF, RF, 3B mostly. Seems he's being groomed as a super-utility guy. Kindof a waste if...
Absolutely true so far. Looks like it wasn't Coors Field holding him back.
Nobody ever seeks a second opinion when the first one is good news.
If you refuse long-term contracts, you cut out the stars in their prime. That leaves you with aging former stars (how's that working for us?) and...
Pitchers have control of three things during the game - strikeouts, walks, home runs. They’re not going to reach their potential until they...
Brandon Hyde was AL Manager of the year in 2023 and was fired because his team has no pitching and little hitting this year. He couldn't be worse...
I would love it if Blubaugh and Ullola improved enough to lock down rotation spots this season. The former has an ERA north of 6 in AAA and the...
Imagine if those people who wanted to trade Framber had gotten their way. Outside of him and Hunter, the rotation is in shambles. We get to find...
Two starts in a row after not getting one in two weeks, is not "giving Chas his chance". 38 ABs is not sufficient to "know for sure that he is no...
Their best player is about to miss the entire season and they have a massive salary problem they need to retool around. Looks like they're moving...
In time, undoubtably. I think he's shown real improvement in May. By next season he's going to be top 5 - maybe sooner. He just needs...
Jrue's contract is gross. He's 35 and is making $100m+ the next three seasons, for a guy who gives you 11/4/4 on declining percentages. Now...
I don't think Dezenzo is a better hitter than Diaz. Diaz has been bitten with worse luck, with an xSLG of .479 that's >100 points above his...
Lance has gone 4 with 2 runs, that’s as good as to be expected. With this lineup not sure it matters.
Way too much swing and miss in Smith’s profile so far. Really poor exit velocity too. I’m all for giving him playing time but you can’t...
I don't think Javier is going to return far enough ahead of the trade deadline to be able to make the call that he is ready to replace Framber in...
Your assessment is a bit optimistic on Pena (who's never been above 102 OPS) and Smith (who's been dropping off in playing time and OPS+ as the...
Walker is 34 and might just be a bad signing. I expect Yordan and Yainer to heat up about the same time Pena and Meyers cool off. This is...
Given 100 years, I don't think I would have ever guessed that you were testing for cervical cancer with your lineup. Must be a (very) inside joke.
Cam hitting cleanup? Start our lefty 3rd catcher against a LHP? Who is Encarnacion?
