I actually did know that one.
Kinda crazy to think just 50 years ago the only way to follow your team was likely listening to the radio during work. Dark times
Imagine having a great defensive OF on the bench, being up by 7 runs, your starting LF gets hit in the head, and you STILL don’t get him into the game.
Absolutely lunacy by JS and he should have been fired on the spot after that loss.
The fact that Soto has been able to sustain a .400+ OBP his entire career is kinda nuts. Slugging over .500 every year too minus 2022.
He has the consistency card that Vlad severely lacks.
Right, this is all us speaking with hindsight now.
At the time, I thought the trade was good. Its still fine I guess, just not what we were hoping for.
Yeah that’s fair. Not a terrible a trade, but you have to think Moreno could have got us a better player, even if he was part of a bigger package. Varsho is not a difference-maker and we gave up 2 years of control.
I think its clear the front office thought he’d be more of a 110ish wRC+ hitter.
