    Yeah but why? Why is he a cat? Where does it come from?

    Vladdy is the best hitter in baseball right now. He has become the elite, MVP caliber hitter his tools said he could be. But have you also noticed... He is ELEVENTH out of all qualified position players with +2 BsR. Seriously. These are the other names in the top 15: Kiner-Falafa, Edman, Baez, Merrifield, Acuna, Nicky Lopez, Tim Anderson, Bogaerts, Chris Taylor, Newman, Betts, Hampson, Josh Rojas. Basically all highly athletic players with speed. LMAO the guy might be a plus baserunner for now at his size? Surely some randomness here but still... at the very least he seems to have completely murdered the boneheaded baserunning mistakes from his repertoire. He is the SECOND best qualified 1B by UZR. His +8.6 UZR/150 trails only Max Muncy. This figure is higher than the 2020 end of season UZR/150 figures of Olson and Evan White, two highly-regarded defenders. This is a 70 grade UZR/150 for a 1B. This is completely supported by the eye test, too. Maybe +8 consistently is wishful but certainly the guy is a well above average 1B. He is the total package. A big puma. Also just tons of fun.

    famous last words?

    It's not even that early in terms of time. He was arguably the top college P in the 2019 draft. There are 2018 high school picks that have debuted now. Obviously he is missing the typical amount of minor league games but that doesn't necessarily mean he has missed any development.

    Blue Jays trying to shake out any new fans this series. See ya guys.

    Ugh Bergen. Would prefer leaving Chatwood in
  7. Laika
    Chatwood mad
  8. Laika
    Haha sick Not sure why but I love pitchers who are converted catchers. Something cool about it.

    Montoyo has done this before. Evidently the front office has given him unfettered discretion over these in game decisions. He's not getting fired
  10. Laika
    He's probably best thought of as a utility prospect. He can hit and has some speed but probably doesn't have average power. Some defensive utility but it doesn't sound like he's a good shortstop. There's a small chance his hit tool is just good enough to carry the whole package into being a league average second baseman or something like that. His more reasonable ceiling is a bench SS/2B/OF. It sounds like he does the little things right.

    Jean Carlos Mejia was placed on debut waivers

    15 homers and 80 ribs, boring. Catchers suck
  13. Laika
    Legit it is extremely hard to bunt modern pitches. It's all 96 mph above the zone or wicked spin breaking away. Tv broadcasters like Buck and Pat have their heads too far up their vaginas to acknowledge this. Good for you Buck, you could bunt a 88 mph sinker in play. Whoop Dee pop.

    I guess Adolis Garcia is this year's out of nowhere slugger?
  15. Laika
    I can never forgive Montoyo for that Espinal bunt call. And because it's like the tenth two strike bunt call during his tenure I can also never forgive Shatkins. Just thoroughly sad. Downgrading my opinion of Shatkins a full letter grade. Pathetic tactical decision making.

    holy f***, wander franco is imminent watch tampa get like two new tyler glasnows for willy f***ing adames
  17. Laika
    Lol. So if they win the next two series they don't need to improve the pitching and Springer can stay home?
  18. Laika
    Nice
  19. Laika
    So Stevie Matz is still awful eh...
  20. Laika
    No, I'd take Kiriloff for sure.
  21. Laika
    It is truly incredible. I have never liked the Giants but you can't help but cheer for them at this point. They even find a way to milk value out of their s***** old veterans getting paid way too much. Posey, Belt, Longoria, Cueto, and Crawford are all contributing if not starring.
  22. Laika
    You only have like, 2 or 3 good players injured in this one. That's not that gross.
  23. Laika
    Bundy

    The only rule is that players with at least 1000 PA or 50 GS for pitchers have to be promoted at the time of our draft. There's no 14 day rule like LOD
  25. Laika
    Best player - no. Most talented player - perhaps. If there is one "generational talent" in the game right now the two candidates are Trout and Ohtani. The argument for Trout is that he is an elite hall of fame talent. The argument for Ohtani is that his skill set has never existed before.
