  1. In all honesty there shouldn't be a team in Colorado. It's a farcical environment to play in. This place just destroys pitchers. Makes absolute mince meat out of them.
  2. Been saying this whole time we gotta bat varsho in an RBI spot...
  3. Lukes gets WAY under pitches more than anyone I can remember seeing a long time.
  4. Seems Colorado is not an ideal place for Laurer to pitch. I guess the cutter will play, but his changeup is probably his worst pitch and that's a pitch that would play in Colorado. Otherwise he's looking at spin to try and get guys out.
  5. Sure but that doesn't change the fact that Varsho is not a good hitter and coming back from injury. I don't think it's that big of a deal but he responded as if the notion that Fido hitting ahead of Varsho is laughable and it really isn't.
  6. It's official, Myles Straw is more clutch than Vladdy. Then again so is almost everyone else apparently😄
  7. Well how do you judge good hitting? Varsho is a below average hitter for his career. We don't know what Fido is yet, but Varsho doesn't set a very high bar to clear and at least Fido is hot and in the swing of the season unlike Varsho coming back from injury.
  8. If he can slug the way he did earlier in the year, I'm fine with him, I was never someone who was in love with the Varsho deal, I always hated the deal, I still think we didn't maximize the perceived value of Moreno. They prioritized years of control, just like they did with Varland. If he can slug, I can deal with it but if he doesn't slug then it's rough watching him at the plate.
  9. Well in fairness they went after two generational talents in the last 2 years, they just didn't want to come here. It takes two to tango.
  10. Well at the end of the day, the two things that people weren't thrilled about for each of these guys was lack of command with one and lack of whiff with the other. We now have two pitchers, one left handed and one right handed, that strike out a lot of guys but we'd be nervous to bring either one in with runners on. It's still a flawed bullpen. The hope is that enough of them are on their game that we can find a way through.
  11. It is quite astonishing that he can't even foul off a high fastball, I mean hitters have their weaknesses in their swing but I've never seen one who literally is physically incapable of touching the ball in a certain part of the strike zone. It's almost beyond belief.
  12. It would be hilarious if the Red Sox win this division after all they went through and the Devers trade with them doing the least at the deadline.
  13. I think you got the wording of that wrong. It expressed the opposite of what you intended.
  14. He's not a strikeout pitcher. There was no problem with the pitchers that pitched they just failed to get the job done. These are guys that we are going to have to rely on so you live and die with them.
  15. Our two bullpen acquisitions just Yankee'ed themselves.
  16. Really wish we picked up a second left-handed reliever at the deadline. Sucks to only have one real option, and someone that you don't feel comfortable bringing in with runners on. That's a real weakness.
  17. Everybody left the Red Sox for dead but they're coming hard.
