  1. "1.55 billion ain't gettin' ya to the grave, fool"
  2. Ha! You're right. 6.37 ERA...clearly he DOESN'T play baseball.
  3. I believe it's "run until someone calls you out."
  4. I had no idea Carson Wentz played baseball too.
  5. "Higher upside"? heh Better MLB outfielders for August and September, 2023? Name them. I understand your extreme obsession with minor leaguers, but it's not reality.
  6. Because there aren't "a half dozen players they could call up from AAA" that could play a decent corner OF and not be a black hole against LH pitching? Garlic maybe? Just spitballin' here.
  7. Maybe so, but that still wouldn't be a "trade deadline deal" IMO. As for Floro, he appears to me less talented than Lopez, but more predictable. Higher floor, lower ceiling. I lost all patience with Lopez, so I don't mind the swap at all. But we're not getting any kind of dominant reliever here, which Lopez could be and sometimes was. We're also not getting the unusable guy that Lopez could be, and sometimes was.
  8. Hopefully, We just need Kuechel to continue to get lucky for a handful of starts here. We're one for one. People have hit on inside straights a handful of times in a row before. It could happen.
  9. I think the point is, swapping MLB players isn't really a "deadline deal" to add to a team. Lopez for Floro was a deal done near the deadline, but doesn't qualify as what would generally be considered a "deadline deal." It neither added MLB talent to a team trying to improve for the stretch drive at the expense of MiLB talent, nor added MiLB talent at the expense of current MLB player(s).
  10. Pagan. Your 5 or 6 Times per week reminder there's no such thing as a "low leverage guy."
  11. I guess you'll just have to trust me on this.
  12. Correa with the clutch 2 out, 2 rbi, go ahead single. As expected
  13. I feel like the Yankees, Mets, or Phillies, fanbase would boo Correa until he either played better or was forced to leave town. Booing sometimes makes me feel better, but I have doubts it makes baseball players play better.
  14. I'd concur with interesing. Very adroit choice of adjective. On the one hand, can't ask for more than 1 run in 5 IP. On the other, 10 baserunners. No Ks. Didn't display any of the old Kuechel command. Personally I hope Ryan comes back soon.
  15. Kuechel has been both very lucky and very unlucky all in the space of 4+ innings.
  16. The most concerning thing about Correa, to me, is the number of hittable pitches that he sees but doesn't hit. He had 2 middle middle fastballs that AB. Fouled one off, rapped a ground ball right to SS on the other. It's virtually every AB. He gets pitches to hit but doesn't.
