    If you could do a third of Buxton's job our problems would be solved. You can't.

    27 career home runs in TEN years. Nobody signed him until pitchers & catchers reported. But, luckily, our guys are smarter than everyone else's guys and we got him. World Series here we come.

    Solano's batting 3rd or 4th these days. Is that unsettling enough?
  4. dxpavelka
    So was Solano batting cleanup nine games in part of the plan?

    Thru two seasons 8 games is an eighth of his season. Let's get him over that hump and see how he looks.

    Larnach SHOULD be better than Wallner. Otherwise it would have been foolish for him to make the team out of camp.
  7. dxpavelka
    Not sure who I heard this quote from but it seems spot on: Julien is a second baseman in the same way Jorge Polanco is a shortstop.

    Pretty sure the concern is gonna mostly be how to get 9 healthy guys to write on the lineup card each day.

    Do you REALLY think that what we have done so far has no likelihood of portending what we might do going forward? Do you REALLY think that half a dozen games worth of production by a few guys is more likely to foreshadow what is to come than better than half a decade of production by others? The only FACT in play here is that they didn't score many runs last year, haven't scored many thus far this year and have shown nothing to make us inclined to think they might going forward, two games of Joey Gallo notwithstanding.

    Just because they made some moves doesn't mean those moves will make them better. You say the players you expected to produce are not doing so. Are there players you did NOT expect to produce? Aren't all players expected to produce every year?

    The only thing that counts is the math. Fewer than 700 runs last year and on pace for fewer this year. In spite of an unsustainable start by Sano Lite.
  12. dxpavelka
    This team scored fewer than 700 runs last year and did little to fix the offense. Our best pitcher has thrown ONE inning because he hurt himself sleeping?

    Thru Game 5: +11
  14. dxpavelka
    Those thinking an electronic pitch calling system will lead to considerably less controversy will be sadly mistaken.
  15. dxpavelka
    Thru Game 4: -19
  16. dxpavelka
    Actually it's NOT easy to evaluate whether a pitch is a strike on TV. Mostly for one big reason. Take a look at where the the strike zone is on TV and then go read the rule book as to where the strike zone actually is. Not even close. Most batters, the top of the TV strike zone is below the batter's belt. This will do little to improve accuracy of strike calls.

    Thru Game 3: +33

    Duran used ONE inning in three days....
  21. dxpavelka
    Maybe the tide turns in game 3?
  22. dxpavelka
    I for one am ecstatic. I'll be tracking his pursuit of the team strikeout record all season.
  23. dxpavelka
    Gallo with more hits than strikeouts in your sim. Credibility gone.
  24. dxpavelka
    B- Added pitching depth but not a a true ace. Biggest accomplishment on the offensive side was only losing one key piece from and offense that scored fewer than 700 runs. No major upgrade.
  25. dxpavelka
    It would be a colossal mistake if anyone other than Duran is the closer. Almost as colossal as not giving him a shot to be the ace at the top of the rotation.
