  1. Now you can just give Flu the next inning He will get Lowe and Horwitz. Decent chance they pinch hit for Horwitz.
  2. Amazing game by Gausman Great managing by John Good execution by Flu
  3. Eloy back on a minor leaguer. Preparing for the Sosa DFA. Honestly Eloy would be better on the big team.
  4. They have had some success in buying low on flawed / overly aggressive hitters before. Clement mainly but they fixed Straw. Valenzuela kind of an example. They tried it with Gimenez as well, without success. The issue with Sosa is that the rest of his profile is horrendous. No defensive value or speed, limited defensive utility even. Every other hacker acquisition came with secondary skills. Sosa has zero. There was never much upside on his range of outcomes.
  5. Maybe but his Stuff+ by game paints a better picture 84, 102, 95, 106 Kinda getting sewered right now by a soft first game Definitely not a 115 Stuff+ guy anymore though
  6. More about the playing time given to Sosa than anything else
  7. Absurd stuff The Sosa trade is the worst move Atkins has made in a long time. I guess it was a desperate reaction to how brutal Schneider looks + the complete lack of RH hitting depth on the 40 man
  8. Cashman rage-dropped Spencer Jones and Yovanny Cruz after the game Kek
  9. Convinced Spencer Miles is actually good at this point Getting vibes of some other deep arsenal pitchers. Having four solid-average pitches and throwing them each 20%+ of the time is very cool. Killer stuff. Hitters have a tough time figuring out what to do. The problem with some other deep arsenal guys is that they either don't have a good fastball or some of their pitches just kind of suck. Neither is true for Miles. It's four solid 50 grade (or better) offerings.
  10. The BABIP gods finally smile upon Jeff Hoffman
  11. Guzman is 5'7" 160 he's certainly just an org guy moving around to fill a need? I would assume
  12. Still trying to decide if Macko is an MLB guy He does not seem to have a good fastball. He may have a plus slider. His control/command has looked quite solid in his two appearances. I dunno. Not sure about his other offspeed offerings. Like, if it's a deadzone fastball he has to throw 30% of the time, that's not great. Maybe his pitching style can be more like Braydon Fisher's. Not as weird with the high breaking balls and stuff, but maybe just being more of a 20% fastball guy and trying to command junk. Seems like with Macko it would be more traditional, sliders/curves/changeups down.
  13. Everyone pays attention to Vladdy but WE ALL KNOW that Captain Kirk is the team's best all around player and it's not particularly close. The impact of his loss cannot be overstated. He played in five measly games. BV has provided some windfall WAR in place of Kirk, but his inexperience has also cost the team a few times and Heinewoman being pressed into starting duty for a week directly cost the team two games or so. They are probably 25-24 at a minimum if the meatball never lost his thumb.
  14. I think Hays is just rehabbing. Not sure why the juggernaut White Sox, currently occupying a playoff spot, would help a team behind them in the WC race.
  15. And he is of course.... another left handed hitter!!!
