    You're talking about someone with the equivalent of about 2 months of PA, only 75 of which have come outside of September/October. Still very small sample size territory here. If you're talking more generally about the team rather than Brito, then go look at the big names batting worse to start the season. It's a long list, with a lot of all-star appearances.
  2. Abomination
    Pretty simple solution. Next time he hits one, every single person on the bench fills up his jersey, pants, glove, the works.
  3. Abomination
    I'm not sure about that (not for a long time anyway), but I think we will see them use some kind of augmented reality glasses or something to aid them.
  4. Abomination
    Nah, the last name isn't good enough for 80 grade. Maybe if it was Socrates El'Enchus or something.
  5. Abomination
    I'd be fine with giving Stroman 4/55 right now, and probably even fine giving that to Sanchez too if he can make the trade deadline with no blister issues.
  6. Abomination
    I think I'd rather trade him, assuming the return was worthwhile. He already has a spotty behavior record, and I'm not sure he'll do so well on a pure, rebuilding team. I'd rather cash in at the deadline before he torpedoes his value. Someone stupid is gonna need a good closer.
  7. Abomination
    I feel like at least one of Stroman or Sanchez will get extended (assuming they don't completely crap the bed in the first half).

    Kikuchi probably isn't enjoying his first game in Chicago. I mean, first of all it's Chicago ...

    What does that have to do with anything? You manipulate service time to gain an extra year of control for which you're (probably) underpaying the player. Doesn't matter whether he's 25 after those 6 years or 30+.

    I don't think they expected to be able to trade Morales and Pillar, and once that happened and they decided some of the kids needed some more everyday at bats, then they needed some filler that can clog up the bench and shake some pom poms. Really, Brito is probably the ceiling of the guy we gave up to get him, so we probably upgraded there regardless. We simply got crap that's a slightly more pleasant consistency. Hanson might not have been our idea, but he has played a SSS decent SS and CF with other experience around the diamond, so in a rebuilding year that could have some value even if he couldn't even hit himself with his own bat if he tried. The other two guys both hold some intrigue imo, and are more the kind of lottery tickets you'd expect for Pillar. I'm not really sure there's anything to question.

    They really only started to tear it down last trade deadline, so calling it a lack of progress is pretty unfair. We replenished our farm system and then some (especially at the high end) while still trying to compete the last 2 years, and are now in a position to build a new core in two year time frame. I'd say it's going quite well.

    There's two other teams this week that might give you a run for your money there.
  13. Abomination
    Brito is probably the ceiling of Orozco.
  14. Abomination
    It might have been better at the game, those idiots were probably on top of the mics.
  15. Abomination
    Ugh, NOT a strike.
  16. Abomination
    This wasn't even the only no hitter going on. The Cubs are being no hit through 5.
  17. Abomination
    Meh, our starting pitching hasn't been an issue (yet). We just need to sneak Grichuk and Smoak out there every at-bat and we'll be fine.
  18. Abomination
    Catchers are really, really volatile, particularly in small sample sizes. You never know when they took a pitch off the palm of their glove and can barely grip the bat, or can't feel part of their arm, or are suffering through bruised balls, etc. Jansen projects as an above average catcher both with the glove and bat.
  19. Abomination
    I have to assume his neck is too sore. That's where you'd definitely use him.
  20. Abomination
    Screw having any particular arms in the pen during a rebuild. Take the guys who can perform best regardless of what hand. I'd rather see a righty give up a hit or two to a lefty than watch a lefty walk the batter just because matchups.
  21. Abomination
    I notice you didn't post Bauer's.
  22. Abomination
    They need to kill the crowd mics (or put them where the fans are less drunk). That whooping is really annoying.
  23. Abomination
    And now Rodney is doing Rodney things.
  24. Abomination
    Estrada is doing Estrada like things to the Red Sox again.
  25. Abomination
    He's been > 2 war in 3 of his 4 full seasons, and was really only a CF in one of them. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him average 2.5 WAR a year for the contract, although that's certainly not a given.
