  1. “Top prospects” -50 FV -28 year old pitcher who can’t actually pitch because he is always hurt -40 FV wow watch out for the Tigers, time to hang the 2032 World Series banner in Detroit
  2. The Tigers are wimps. This is the offer you take on Monday morning.
  3. I remember last year when the Yankees got this guy, Bednar and a Rockies pitcher and the board was losing its mind because we only got Louis Varland lmao
  4. 7.8 percent chance to make the playoffs but there is less than a 7.8 percent chance that whatever turd we get for 2 months of Kevin Gausman or a bum like Daulton Varsho is going to materially contribute to winning anytime soon anyway. If we sweep the Cardinals this weekend let’s ride.
  5. That’s 3 out of the last 4 boys Only 4.5 games back We aren't dead yet
  6. This is great work but it's also kind of depressing. I'm still not over 2025 and this season has made it even worse. We'll make some trades which will be fun but we probably aren't even going to get anything that great out of it because our rentals aren't that good. We need one of these under the radar prospects to hit their 90th or higher percentile outcomes for this deadline to make a big impact moving forward. Otherwise, it's just acquiring more Charles McAdoo's.
  7. There's got to be a way to fleece the cheapskate Pirates for Oneil Cruz. Idk if we need to take Mitch Keller back or something but Cruz is the kind of player with huge power upside that could help fix this lineup.
  8. Ross usually keeps it pretty interesting. Whether buying or selling the Jays have made at least 3 trades every deadline under his tenure.
  9. The Phillies do make some sense as they could use damn near every trade chip we have. Gausman, Varsho, Hoffman....even Jesus Sanchez would fit for them. I would take Crawford but I'm not sure how sold I am on him. His defensive metrics aren't great and they kind of need to be with his subpar bat. Gage Wood and Aidan Miller are damn good prospects but they might be worth more than the type of vets we could offer. The shine is wearing off of Painter but I would be interested. Ramon Marquez is another good pitching prospect. The rest of their prospects kind of stink. But there's probably something there though if the two sides can get creative.
  10. Trade for Skubal, Buxton and one more All-Star bat and the playoffs will be easy to make
  11. So what's the pro-Lauer argument then? Running to another website and screenshotting a bunch of baseball cavemen who agree with you isn't actually on argument on Lauer's behalf. It just shows that there are other idiots out there that agree with you. Do you actually think he possesses a special skill which allows him to produce a low BABIP and high LOB%? Why hasn't he been able to do that throughout the rest of his career instead of just these 8 starts with the Dodgers?
  12. Yeah it seems like they made the Rangers take O'Hoppe in order to get Silseth for basically nothing. With injuries to both Higashioka and Jansen they don't really have a 3rd Catcher so O'Hoppe with his options is a body to fill that spot for the rest of the year. Silseth isn't bad as a back of your bullpen type, but he doesn't have any options left so those guys aren't worth very much either. And then the prospect involved seems like a nobody. So at first it seemed like an interesting deal but after you dive into it it's kind of a nothing trade.
  13. Delete this. Cutting your username off the top of that screenshot isn't enough from it leading people straight to your Reddit profile. I just took a gander and you are a pretty prolific poster there which explains a lot tbh. It's full of very highly regarded dumbasses who don't know a thing about ball. I'm sure you fit right in.
  14. Lauer stinks he's just getting lucky. With the Dodgers he's got a .195 BABIP and a 89.4% LOB. His FIP is over 5 and that's right where his projections are too. The only thing we'll miss from him down the stretch is his ability to command a tank.
  15. I've been making tons of mock deadline deals where we're buyers. The trades I am coming up with are impeccable. If I could somehow get them to Ross he'd probably hire me on the spot. The only problem is that most of the teams I'd want to trade with are actually ahead of us in the standings.
  16. Series W followed by an off day to get the bullpen some rest and then a Dylan Cease start Is the season back on? Some people are saying it is.
  17. There was a very brief but fleeting moment last night where I thought that Brendon Little might have saved our season
  18. Statistically speaking, his worst inning by far is the 7th though. But he also stinks in the 9th inning because he gave up a home run in the playoffs. See my previous post, but I think you have to use him in the 8th inning. The 9th inning is too much pressure for him and the 7th inning isn't enough pressure. The 8th inning is the sweet spot where you unlock the best version of the Hoff.
  19. Yeah I could always tell that you were an elite athlete who really understood the mental side of what it takes to compete at the highest levels and definitely not one of those "computer people".
  20. If we win today that prospect's name is going to be Byron Buxton
  21. If we win today we are trading for Skubal and Mason Miller and we are going to win the whole damn thing. Bookmark this.
  22. I did a deep dive into the stats, and I've reached an undeniable conclusion. Jeff Hoffman is the Goldilocks of relievers. Hoff is at his best in the 8th inning. The numbers back it up. The 7th inning is his worst. Apparently there's just not enough pressure (aka the porridge is too cold). Avoid using him in the 7th at all costs. The 9th inning is much better than the 7th and statistically it is almost indistinguishable from the 8th for him. But that doesn't fit my scientific theory that the 9th inning contains extra pressure (aka the porridge is too hot) that prevents him from reaching his true potential. The 8th inning, though, is the porridge you want Jeff to be eating. It's juuuuust right. It has the perfect amount of pressure for Hoff to be at his absolute best.
  23. I’m going to get absolutely tarred and feathered for this…BUT…we are only 5 games back from the playoffs you guys…just saying
