  1. This has been my issue with mlr, they ignore that the plan doesn't work for Colorado, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, etc. It's the execution of the plan that matters. And to your point, this team seems, seems, not to trust it's own execution.
  2. Agreed. He's likely a fourth starter for most teams. He's also still quite young. I think people forget how little good pitching there is in baseball.
  3. I'd bet on Festa being up for two starts. If he's good, he's up until he's not for a couple games. SWR dealt at the deadline. That's my guess.
  4. Paddock has averaged less than two runs given up his last six starts. No one should be calling for him to be out of the rotation.
  5. He's given up an average of less than two runs in his last six starts.... What do people want from him before they think he's been good?
  6. Wow SWR has to go to AAA or the bullpen, which is my preference. Festa should be up.
  7. I regretted hitting "submit reply" almost immediately, yes.
  8. I don't think Lewis is ready right now....i know, unique thought. Too bad McCusker never plays first.....
  9. Not good to have a short start (i'm guessing) in a double header. I just hope he limits the damage.
  10. Heaven forbid guys be happy they hit a HR. It wasn't a simpler time, it was a time that wanted everyone to stay in their place.
  11. You can have his story there without giving him a plaque. And, it's still against the rules to gamble on the game, and it still results in a ban. If he ever showed remorse and admitted it, I'd feel slightly different. Some people scream for accountability, bit didn't really want it at all for their people.... Not that you are that way... But others are.
  12. He literally bet on games. No. Not even counting rape.
  13. I own a lot of United healthcare, since I was there ten years .... Everything else is fine, but, ugh.
  14. Need a catcher and first baseman next year, no? And Bader replacement. Would they use ERod that way? I doubt it.
  15. And, it gets worse. I may have to go back to work, in my sixties. Great.
  16. I'm willing to concede some of you have convinced me it's not as bad as I thought. And yet, I'm not excited. They don't seem to win enough games most years. And as pointed out above, where are the pre arb replacements? It's partly on them, because I don't think they trust their process enough. Wallner should not be a platoon player, for example. And they are way too slow to give up on bad veterans. So, yes, it's not bad. But I'm not convinced it's great either.
  17. I hope Lewis moves to first, and not Lee. But I'm never counting on Lewis being healthy. That's negative, but it's been four years now. Keaschell, I am a big fan, but the sample size is tiny. It's hard to see this front office not signing several veterans, it's in their DNA.
  18. Those two look like legit players. I'm the high guy in Lee on this site. I even created a thread about how good he is. I'm not excited about the help they will need later this year and next. Hopefully ERod hits and Jenkins gets healthy. Hopefully others step up.
  19. I'm negative? I asked who was in AA/AAA this year, because we are talking about the minor leagues (drafting and developing). That's the topic.
  20. Which of those is a realistic option for this year or next? Who would ERod even replace, he's not going to be a 4th OF? They haven't promoted McCusker, even with Wallner out. Eeles? He's a 2b only. Where does he play if keaschell and Lee are in MN? ERod is it (as I'd count keaschell as in MN at this point, but I'll give you him). That's it. An OF that hasn't hit at all this year, and a 2B/OF.
