Things must be rough, I find myself wishing the Jake Peavy deal had went through. Pretty bad when your dreaming of a pitcher who hasn't been healthy in, well forever..

 

I don't think we'd be a better team in that case.

If it mean't not watching Beuhrle heave 85 mph floaters down the gut I wouldn't be opposed. Not to mention in two years when were paying everyones favourite pit bull advocate 19 mil.

That trade was so terrible. A 30 year old SS who's now hurt, one year of a over-the-hill pitcher who's now hurt too, and a 34 year old who can't throw it past 85. A total of over 150+ mill committed and losing a bunch of prospects also, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

Buehrle was the deadweight to acquire JJ and Jose Reyes.

You're gonna go crazy on the multi-quoting now that someone showed you how, aren't you lol

Too bad we couldn't of ate some Mets salary and kept Syndergaard. I'd love to have him in Dunedin.

Eat what salary exactly? That deal would not have gone through without Syndergaard. The Mets had asked for him.

 

*Sniff*

They originally asked for Sanchez.

 

Dear god that would have sucked.

Baseball America said that Alderson had asked for Syndergaard IIRC. Regardless, that deal doesn't get done without him and I couldn't have been angrier.

I'm pretty sure Sanchez was brought up at some point.

 

Syndergaard's pretty risky, really. I don't like his secondaries.

His curveball? Sure it needs some work on its consistency, but his changeup is pretty sweet and John Sickels is the only pundit who seems to notice it.

 

Parks likes him too, although to be fair he faps over every Texas boy.

Really? I don't like his change that much, but I don't watch him much. At worst he's dominant closer, but then again, so is Sanchez.

 

I dunno, I guess I'm biased. I got out to see Lansing all the way from Toronto this summer and got to Sanchez, and he looked great.

...this summer...

 

You mean Sanchez got demoted?

... This PAST summer, which is one of about 10000000000000 grammatical and spelling errors I just made in that post, which is telling me that I'm probably a bit sleep deprived.

 

I think I had over 150 posts today lol. That's FatCow level.

[Ziggyy108]

Its actually insane that it took 32 games to finally have a game go that smooth

[CHRIS]

In the end I see them picking up more relievers

 

Sad, but likely true.

Was *this* the game that turns things around? For real? Feel like they've had a few games that were supposed to turn the tide, only to come out flat the next game. Fingers crossed!

[G-Snarls]

What shall our victory beverage be??

 

Mine was Barbados Plantation 20 year old rum. Yum.

I dont if many of us dare to hope for a full on change. they played better, pitched better, hit better.... lets hope they have talked about how much better winning felt and who yesterdays game shows how they really "should" play.
