    or you could live with a short bullpen a couple days and give Perez his start Saturday, push back starts on Tuesday. That would also benefit a battered rotation
  2. Richie the Rally Goat
    keep Smeltzer in the rotation - Perez can be in the pen where a 2 pitch mix works better

    Arraez has electrolytes? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GFD2ggNxR1g

    part of this has been a very good rotation. Average 5.2 innings per start puts them 6th in mlb, with the 4th best ERA. Baldelli has been able to limit exposure and effectively manage work loads. He wont be afforded that luxury so well in the post season.

    not sympathizing with a parent who is too exhausted to care if their child’s shirt is inside out is typically a sign of not having been through it
  6. Richie the Rally Goat
    Clearly you aren’t a parent
  7. Richie the Rally Goat
    These things tend to sort themselves out - my guess is an IL stint is upcoming.
  8. Richie the Rally Goat
    clearly what I think doesn’t matter. Falvey and Levine have both said things to the effect of “we’ll supplement when the time is right, but we won’t spend for the sake of spending” In other words, “if we don’t have to spend, we won’t”. If they can coast into the post season, they will. Making it competitive makes it more likely the team gets improved for a post season run.
  9. Richie the Rally Goat
    that is the silver lining. If the lead was still double digits over the Indians, Falvine might not be so inclined to improve the team before the trade deadline

    Gleeman and the Geek had a good synopsis of the coaching work done with Sano to help explain/describe his recent skid. The way Gleeman said it, the FO read Parker's TD article on fixing his swing and took free advice.

    This one hit way too close to home
  12. Richie the Rally Goat
    I gotta be honest.... I got a little misty about this literary masterpiece. Great work
  13. Richie the Rally Goat
    that is the thing with polls... sample size matters.... good point on saves I think you can reconcile that with run differential. At plus 110 runs, they have more blow outs, fewer save opportunities.
  14. Richie the Rally Goat
    if the bullpen were striking batters out, instead of allowing balls in play, would the errors have happened? I can still find a way to blame the bullpen
  15. Richie the Rally Goat
    Qualifying a statement w/ "SSS but..." is like saying "no offense but...". Just because you said "no offense" doesn't mean you aren't offensive. Let's see if he can sustain that OPS while maintaining a 38% K rate. I'm with Brock - he doesn't have to improve much, but improvement in K-rate is a necessity or the other variables in baseball will take their toll on his peripheral stats.
  16. Richie the Rally Goat
    i’d look for one of each. They need two good to very good setup and closer type relievers.
  17. Richie the Rally Goat
    I bet he knew exactly what state he was in, probably one of these two.
  18. Richie the Rally Goat
    Sano’s OPS is driven by slugging that normalizes at 500 plate appearances. He’s having a great month. I hope his great month becomes 2, becomes a great season. When comparing to Ortiz’s age 26 season, it’s not fair to compare 62 plate appearances to 347. I think it’s fair to question promise of a guy who’s been injured for such significant stretches. I sill hope he can continue his stretch of recent success.
  19. Richie the Rally Goat
    Cavasco a “backup plan” to Sano 4 years from now? Playing the long game eh?
  20. Richie the Rally Goat
    Adams was DFA’d and claimed by the Tigers. He’s out of options. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2019/05/26/austin-adams-detroit-tigers/1246143001/ ninja’d
  21. Richie the Rally Goat
    he’s 32.... Cleveland used his options in 2014-2016.
  22. Richie the Rally Goat
    Gordon is still young with value to boot! Imagine if he can get his bat figured out in AAA. No such thing as too many short stops/middle infielders
  23. Richie the Rally Goat
  24. Richie the Rally Goat
    no I missed it, thanks for the recap!
  25. Richie the Rally Goat
    Odd.... Hey Stew, what gives?!
