  1. Playoff teams should have competent MLB players as depth in case of injury. The bullpen composition is really messed up with Mayza's injury. I think they have to keep Thornton up because he's the only reliever with any length. That also means Cimber is basically the honorary lefty reliever. with no true lefties. Once Stripling comes back either White or Kikuchi can slide into the long role and Thornton can go down. But that leaves a full bullpen with no optionable relievers. I really wish they had dumped Richards to a rebuilding team at the deadline. He's has big strikeout numbers and is under control for a few years, I'm sure a noncontending team has the luxury of trying to convert him into a closer with trade value. I would much rather have the roster spot to cycle optionable guys based on needs and matchups.
  2. Anthopoulos accomplished more in 5 years than Atkins has in 7. He's just that much better now with Atlanta.
  3. Honestly, unless Berrios gets his s*** together soon, healthy Stripling might be our number 3.
  4. Even in this disaster season, Gallo has more generated more defensive and baserunning value than Tapia. Gallo has a higher wRC+ against righties this year. They have the same overall xwOBA. Gallo could remain this s***** for the rest of the year and he would probably still be a better fit for this team than Tapia.
  5. Haven't seen Pop live but he has given up 1 HR in 107 minor league innings. That is insane.
  6. This is huge news. A broken elbow with complications can be a career threatening injury for a pitcher.
  7. Collins hits well for a backup C but I see your point. His entire purpose is to free up Kirk to DH regularly. I do wish they would pinch run for Kirk more often (Kirk is like bottom 5 in baserunning value in the entire league). Also wish they would use Collins as a late inning defensive replacement to get Kirk and Jansen off their feet. To your point a glove first 3rd catcher would make this easier.
  8. Atkins shed salary that he created with that low IQ contract extension to Grichuk. Watch him sign Tapia to a multiyear deal chasing after potential surplus. Just watch.
  9. Even Banda can't blow this lead.
  10. Zimmer versus a position player might actually be a fair matchup.
  11. Beasley's getting touched up but this is a great approach in this situation. 0-2 to every hitter.
  12. They're playing so bad that they're running out of mop up guys. I want to see their closer forced to pitch in this game.
  13. I was. Tapia still sucks.
  14. If Verdugo fielded that cleanly he had a shot to throw Vlad out at first lol.
  15. You play station to station on the bases in a blowout like this. Unwritten rules and so forth.
  16. The HRs were crushed though.
  17. If Biggio's playing tomorrow, you'll want to get him at least 1 AB tonight to get him up to game speed.
  18. A few more runs and it'll be safe to get Banda some innings.
  19. Tapia hits like Kevin Pillar and fields like Ezekiel Carrera.
  20. Carter's reputation was shredded during the Moneyball era because he didn't draw a lot of walks. At his best had power, speed, and played defense. He was a solid starter on a good team, he just looks bad because every single player on those World Series teams was a borderline hall of famer. Grichuk isn't even worthy of a bench spot on a playoff team.
  21. There's a bit of a changing of the guard here. If this was a few weeks ago Springer would be DHing and Kirk would be benched, no question.
  22. This is a kid who licked his lips and grabbed his crotch against Justin Verlander in the World Series as a teenager. He's probably confident enough to ask for a billion dollars.
  23. Schneider should move Stripling to the bullpen to cover the last two games before the ASG. Right now their long man is Trevor Richards.
