  1. That was an absolutely horrible pinch hitting decision by Rocco. We essentially have rapped up the central and have thee best teachable moment for Julien ….and he punts. WTF.
  2. Yes, Paddack as well and while you’re at it, Ober. Play the best players and sweep the mini series and kill it in round 2.
  3. The FO doesn’t have a great track record in trades so it made sense for them to not throw young developing talent out for a rental arm. The FO even said that they wanted the fixes in the team to come from within the organization. We are a young team and we have a great farm system. We are finally built to do some damage this year and in the next few. Sit back and enjoy the ride.
  4. Just going down town is an issue for many people since the riots. I’m more than a casual fan and last night was the first game I went to since 9/2019. There are tons of police in and around the stadium which is great. For a beautiful fall Tuesday evening, it seemed fairly bz but no where near 2019.
  5. Word has it that Willi is a decent golfer 🤣. Fun game to watch in person but $18 beers😳.
  6. I give them 15-20% chance of doing post season damage. Based mostly on health if it holds up.
  7. The Sheriff is pitching today for the surge and he is heading to the twin cities after that. He has stated that he is 100% ready for the varsity. I would bet that he is a lock for the post season long reliever role. Varland will also be on the pen. He is throwing 100mph heat. Since we will only be 3-4 starters deep. The whole middle relief issues will be left off the post season roster. Starters Lopez, Gray and Ryan RP’s Meada, Ober, Kuekel, Paddack, Varland, Duran, Pagan, Funderburk and Thielbar. Jax if they carry 13.
  8. It’s strange sometimes how guys just crash and burn. They both have a lot to prove and improve on in 2024.
  9. The score should have been 5 or 6 to zero entering the 9th. So many lost opportunities.
  10. If the rotation stays at 5. Lopez gets game #1
  11. Great depth win! Magic#13 with 20 to play so Cleveland is toast. We need more roster experience with possible post season players. Some players my be disappointed to be left off the post season roster. My bets are buxton and gallo are off as well as several bullpen guys. Very possible Funderburk and Paddack are in the pen.
  12. Yes it would have been nice to see him on the varsity in July and August but now that he is here, he will stay as long as he shuts the door when he toes the rubber. I do think he has an advantage that he is unknown to MLB. It would cool to do a deep dive in late September to see what the history of late season RP call ups in post season play is.
  13. Bravo! Beat me to it 🤣
  14. If they put him on the 60 day il, then we can add to the 40 man roster.
  15. Thats a nice pipeline. SWR could be added to that if he ever finds consistency.
  16. Without naming names. 5 for sure. Most likely 8-10 due to injuries.
  17. He is a great depth piece if he shows up next spring like everyone thought he would this spring. Its one lost year and he could be back better than ever. As far as next year’s infield goes, he could be called up when the first key injury occurs.
  18. maybe gallo can come up with a mysterious injury so everyone can save face and we can get a young man added to the team to help out instead of strike out.
  19. Nice to see Duran get a week off for much needed rest. Varland looked like a beast today. Sweep the Mets this weekend and we will be getting some national respect.
  20. Buck wont be 30 until 12/18/23. So technically he cant be on the wrong side of that until 12/19/24 [snarky]
  21. Only if there is a way to sneak him onto the playoff roster.
  22. Its not like the organization has ever said his days in CF are over. I have no info to suggest that he can’t heal up and play in the field at some point unless his knee issue is worse than the team has said it was.
  23. Isn’t it obvious the Buck needs surgery? Get him rebuilt and ready for March 2024. Next man up for 2023.
  24. Because it allows Buck to sit out until March to get his body healed up. He isn’t going to help this year one legged.
