This is the part where you complain that the Reds are batting him second in his debut and we batted Vlad fifth. I know Terminator is mad, who else wants to chime in?

 

Don't forget the pinch running in the 9th, and giving him a day off less than a week into his debut.

 

No other org would treat a generational talent like that.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this or not but I did not expect that Matthew Boyd would ever turn into a solid starting pitcher.

 

That's because he didn't and 37 IP is not greater than the other 450 IP.... I mean it's 6 starts...

He was good for the 2.5 seasons prior to this one too.

2.1 WAR and 2.2 WAR in 2017 and 2018 isn't too bad. That's more than Price (the guy he got traded for) put up over the same time.

Better than any of our starters last year.

Now up to 1.6 on this season already.

 

That definitely qualifies as solid.

Glasnow 7-1 k/bb 1.49 ERA. Reports of him sucking may have been exaggerated

 

I placed a $10 bet on Clevinger at the start of the season to win the AL Cy Young, then cashed it out at $11 when he got hurt. I reallocated those funds to Glasnow winning the Cy and I'm really liking what I see. I think his odds were something like 34:1 at the time of the wager.

Glasnow is the most fascinating pitcher in baseball right now.

My bad, the correct answer was 41:1. We were looking...for 41:1.

Really not smart business by the Mets to sign TDA for $3.5M, keep him through ST and then cut him loose this early into the season.

How is that even possible to have cashed out and made out? His injury was akin to falling behind 20 points on the spread and taking your money back

Down goes Paxton. I thought I *almost* felt sorry for the Yankees, but then realized the discomfort was lunch related.

 

Yanks injured list would make post season

He was like 51 to 1 when we placed the bet before the season and after his first two starts the odds came wayyy down to like 18 to 1. I cashed out at a bigger price right when he got hurt but P2F waited a bit longer until it came down to an 11$ cashout and then he bailed to take Glasnow

Welcome back Miguel Andujar, two errors including a patented throwing error on a potential double play ball with Nelson Cruz running.

Matt Kemp released. I know we need OF help but I think I probably pass on him.

 

Yeah, that's a hard pass from me. If we could get 10 years ago Matt Kemp, sure, but...

If we could get 1 year ago Matt Kemp that would be a big upgrade but he's probably never coming back.
