    I'm using my phone, don't know if I can change font size.

    GROSSMAN!!!!!
  3. Danchat
    Good thing Dozier's hitting lead off, we wouldn't want to hit non-solo HRs.
  4. Danchat
    They're asking for LOB opportunities with Gimenez hitting in the 6 spot following Mauer and Grossman. Not to mention Dozier needs to be done being a leadoff hitter.
  5. Danchat
    From Berardino I'm thinking Santiago is going to take Gee's role as the mop-up guy. Gibson probably takes Busenitz's spot unless they decide to send Granite back to AAA and go with 13 pitchers.
  6. Danchat
    For all intents and purposes, Mejia is a rookie. He pitched in one game last season - just one! He is definitely "new" for this year.
  7. Danchat
    More Mauer leading off please, less Dozier solo homers. Thank you.

    Their strikeout guys (Pressly, Tonkin, Duffey) have been flat-out bad, paving the way for poor strikeout relievers (Kintzler, Breslow, Rogers 2017, Boshers) to get more reps. Plus they've had poor strikeout starters in Gibson, Hughes, Santiago, and Colon. I imagine in 2018 we see only a few of these guys return. Hopefully they'll focus on acquiring guys who can get Ks.

    Another mental error for Eddie and another wasted runner on 3rd base.

    A double for Polanco! Miracles DO happen!! But of course Santana has to hit now... but he has hit a double with the bases loaded before.
  11. Danchat
    The ball was hit right to the shortstop, Joe didn't have a chance to go home. He got caught at home because he got a poor jump and he's just slow.
  12. Danchat
    This team is finding new ways to not score runs.
  13. Danchat
    Wow, three losses in a row to two of the worst teams in baseball... so what was all that about being buyers?
  14. Danchat
    It's hard to score runs when your DH and 1B don't hit HRs.
  15. Danchat
    Escobar is 3 for 3 today and the rest of the offense is like 1 for 20.
  16. Danchat
    It looks like it's going to be Gee and Buxton. I think Gibson could replace Gee after one start if he doesn't do so well.
  17. Danchat
    I'm wondering the same thing. I don't think they can call up Gibson because of the 10 day send-down rule, so I guess they'd call up Gee to start in Garcia's spot and Garver/Vargas to fill in the bench while in San Diego. But they might go with an 8 man bullpen and call up Turley/Curtiss or someone like that. Edit: Whoops, I forgot about Buxton, I imagine he pushes Granite to the bench instead of calling up Vargas/Garver.
  18. Danchat
    I have to agree, San Diego is probably my favorite city in the USA. Always 70 degrees out.
  19. Danchat
    Hildenberger, I'd hope.
  20. Danchat
    The trades could have already happened, they just haven't been announced yet.
  21. Danchat
    What? It sounds like he might be going to Washington.
  22. Danchat
    It would have been a little more exciting if the Garcia trade happened today instead of yesterday morning.
  23. Danchat
    If Dozier gets traded, there's a whole load of options to fill in 2B. You can treat the position like DH for the rest of 2017, putting Polanco, Adrianza, and Escobar in sporadically. Then you can have less of Escobar at DH and more of Garver/Vargas at DH. They should figure out what they have with the current hitters (is Polanco broken? Will Adrianza keep hitting?) and then determine what the right course of action will be for the 2018 season. But honestly I don't think Dozier is going anywhere. Now Rosario can play at 2B, just like he did [for a little bit] in the minors!
  24. Danchat
    It's too bad our offense managed one hit in the final five innings of this one. Ick.
  25. Danchat
    Yikes, that was close. I was really hoping Hildy wouldn't lose this one.
