    I wasn't aware people were in your DM's harassing you about Bellinger. I have taken some shots but all in good fun and public on the board. Bottom line Bellinger was a good signing for the Cubs. Kiermaier was a good signing for us. I never disliked the Kiermaier signing it was more about health and whether or not the Jays were going to add a right-handed bat to compliment both Kiermiaer and Varsho. Ultimately that didn't happen and the Jays are still looking for that guy. I am in the boat that Kiermaier should be playing against lefties over Varsho. I don't understand why Varsho starts in CF vs Lefties. It's confused me the entire season.

    If we’re spending $6 million a year on reliever I would just prefer someone who does a better job preventing base runners. His K rate is good but his stuff just isn’t consistent outing to outing. We see his fastball perform better with ample rest. So yes if used correctly he’s an asset but maybe I just want more from that spot. I just don’t want to see out flexibility hampered by relievers being overpaid. The team is getting expensive and the lack of prospect development has really made the issue worse. We pay a premium for back end Starters instead of develop them it makes things tough. We’re currently paying 4 Starting Pitchers over $20 million a season. But atleast Ryu is coming off the books.

    I liked both signings the fact that you fail to understand that astonishes me. This was never a Kiermaier vs Bellinger debate but you decided to make it into one just to argue with people.

    Ah the peaks and valleys of role players. Gotta love Baseball.

    Yimi Garcia is not worth $6m. Period. Don’t read anymore into it than that. Poor asset management. I’m very aware of his performance since June. Hes been better in low leverage. He sucks in high leverage or extended outings. He’s replaceable plain and simple. Don’t know what’s so hard to understand about it. They gotta stop the option from vesting. Perhaps the team and him can come to some kind of agreement that its not picked up. But he still gets his buyout. Very expensive middle reliever. Where is this info even coming from that he has over 11 strikeouts per 9 in “high leverage” what does this source even associate as “high leverage”. He has clearly not been the setup man or used as often in close late games the past couple months so I’m calling BS. He worked his way into more leverage recently and it has not gone well. I don’t even think he’s that bad if used correctly. But for that price its a no for me.

    I will roll with the MVP tonight.

    You would think as a professional athlete you would want to make maximize your potential performance. If not for the love the game. Your earning potential. It’s just strange to me. Nobody is telling these guys nerd to be shredded to the bone and under 10 percent body fat. We’re setting the bar at just being in shape to perform at your job. It requires just a little self care and discipline.

    And some team will probably overpay him for multi year deal. But my point to Sherman is the one year deal he signed with the Cubs looks like a good bit of business for them. He was calling people idiots in the off-season for suggesting he was signed to a one year deal here. Cubs will flip him for some decent assets.
  10. Jonn
    Your limited Baseball knowledge is showing Shermantor.

    2.8 in WAR in 68 games Good Defense regardless if he plays OF or 1B. Good base runner. .370 On Base. OPS over .900 All for a show me one year contract. Yes please. Would have loved to have that on my team this year. He would be the best hitter on our team.
  12. Jonn
    He has been much better but has also been awful his last couple times out. I just think he can be cut bait and that money can be better spent elsewhere. Going to be a tax team soon. Can’t afford to be giving middle relievers $6m. Young arms from Buffalo need to emerge at some point.
  13. Jonn
    So me calling him a rockstar because he’s been awesome for the Cubs means I can’t read a statcast page ok bud lol. God forbid I’m happy for a player for having a career resurgence. Sorry it’s not up to your standards.
  14. Jonn
    What about not being fat out of self respect for yourself. What happened to that?
  15. Jonn
    Manoah I just don't really see as an asset out of then pen Kikuchi absolutely could be. Hes the best option and probably will be in the post season provided we get there. You don't need 5 starters in the playoffs but he would also be likely to start over Manoah. Lots of decisions need to be made.
  16. Jonn
    It makes the most sense to keep Manoah as depth in AAA or Kikuchi to the Bullpen. Only 2 moves that make sense. But Kikuchi doesn't deserve to lose his job to Manoah. And Kikuchi's last outing was the best I have seen him pitch for the Blue Jays.
  17. Jonn
    I am sure Manoah will get one more start atleast. Before they make the decision on whether or not they go with a 6-man rotation or just ride with 5. It only works if they are all pitching well. Taking starts away from Berrios and Gausman doesn't sound exciting to me though. I want those guys pitching as often as possible.
  18. Jonn
    It's also possible Ryu was already hurt and was pitching through it before he ultimately f***ed it for good. He's healthy and in the best shape hes been in a long time. We know good he can be. He's also a pending Free Agent so he has incentive to pitch well to get paid in the off-season and guarantee himself a Starting job.
  19. Jonn
    Promising signs but I just don't think he can be trusted down the stretch. Ryu likely takes his spot and never looks back.
  20. Jonn
    We had the lead late in all 3 games. So yea we arguably should have. The failure to get add on runs has sucked.

    Pillow spared my wrath tonight

    OMG when I saw Romano's reaction I thought that was 3 run bomb Jesus Christ
  23. Jonn
    I don't even know if walking J-Rod is the right move because of Romano's command.
  24. Jonn
    I don't even want to hate him. But he's always pissing me off.
  25. Jonn
    OMG Not again.
