  1. He's completely shredded the minor leagues as a starting pitcher. I see no reason to think that if he came up he couldn't at least be a dominant reliever right now, with pretty much ace level potential.
  2. Right, I completely understand that, I'm just offering a different POV here. But if the Dodgers call you up and offer Jose De Leon, who might be as good as Osuna is right now, I just don't think you could turn down that kind of deal.
  3. An alternative view, just to play devil's advocate. Osuna's value as a reliever might be at his highest right now. Teams who buy elite relievers are generally those that believe they have a shot at making the playoffs. This doesn't get more obvious than at the trade deadline, with only 50-60 games more to play. The only relievers that I can remember getting traded for a haul in the offseason have been Kimbrel and Chapman. We just saw that Chapman just got twice that value, as has Miller and the past, and Miller a few hours ago. Hell, even Mark Lowe was worth two prospects, and he's a total shitbag now. Elite relievers are different, but I think teams would rather pay now while a BP arm is pitching at their best rather than risk it next season when they might completely gascan as many do. Osuna is fantastic, but maybe a team trading for him in the offseason weighs more heavily the risk that he might get injured, the possibility that their team might not be fully in the playoff hunt come midseason, and the risk that Osuna's walk rate will skyrocket to 5/9.
  4. My lineup looks awful, I don't know what happened. P Corey Kluber P Michael Pineda C Willson Contreras 1B Mike Napoli 2B Kolten Wong 3B Nick Castellanos SS Marcus Semien OF Kole Calhoun OF Tyler Naquin OF Justin Upton
  5. Josh Donaldson's 2013-present are better than any stretch in Alomar's career, and it's not really close.
  6. Happ has been dealing for quite some time now. What a bargain of a contract that's looking like.
  7. He wasn't being very obnoxious about it. Umps usually let you question them (some do at least) if you're not shouting in their face.
  8. I thought that was a bloop at best lol, have no idea how that carried that much.
  9. Did Adam Jones just foul off a pitch that bounced?
  10. Upton is such a sound defender, even though that's a play all outfielders should make, he just gives much greater confidence than Bautista or Carrera.
  11. That's not a burn. Having an open mind and adapting to new information are good qualities to have in order to advance in the world. There are many people who still use RBI, batting average and pitcher wins as a means to evaluate the performance of players, and wholeheartedly refuse to acknowledge the existence and value that advanced statistics provide.
  12. Technically either is correct I believe.
  13. It's really not. Tulowitzki is a really good hitter, in the moment in a game where you need a hit, if you have the option of hitting Barney or PH Tulo who then only has to play 3 innings in the field, you go with the latter every time, specially with a day off coming up.
  14. At this point I wouldn't even be surprised if Smoak pinch ran.
  15. Of course. Gibbons has completely lost it.
  16. Tulo and Martin would've done an even better job at doing that, but...
  17. Thole leading off the inning against a lefty, brilliant.
  18. Nice shutdown inning, keeps the momentum going on our side.
  19. I see no alternative but for Barney to hit a dinger.
