A first baseman who actually hits like a first baseman.    I didn’t think the brewers were allowed to have that 

Wouldn't it be nuts if he hit about 20 bombs between now and the end of the season.

If needed I hope Murph remembers Easton McGee is a corporeal being capable of throwing baseballs

[Brian]

Vaughn .189 with white sox

.500 with Brewers WOW 

[StearnsFTW]

Would anyone trade Priester for Yophery Rodriguez and a pick?

 

I know I wouldn't.

I was told Vaughn was sh*t

He was never as bad as people were portraying him as.  He’s been a slightly below average first baseman in his career yes, but still a legit MLB player.  He was just getting expensive in arbitration and had a terrible start on a terrible team this year.

[mudbutt]

Man Durbin now has a higher OPS than Turang.

[yourout]

Ortiz has to big of a swing.

Really uncontrolled swing path because of it.

You're right. I just looked at his career numbers and they're really not bad at all.

[yourout]

Sal's just a really good old school baseball player.

[edfunderburk]

Frelick & Ortiz have two of the best defensive plays of the year tonight 

[markedman5]

Finally got Judge……I mean Riley Adams out…..

Yeah I mean he was *terrible* for the White Sox this year, and has been great for us, both things can be true.

You guys are right though, his career numbers aren’t awesome, but they’re not indicative of 2025.

He was once a highly touted prospect. Not that I would expect it, but not impossible or unheard of to see guys be late bloomers or succeed with a change of scenery. 

[yourout]

Really solid win.

[edfunderburk]

Great to see Priester pitch six innings to finish the game & protect the bullpen

[duewizard]

Nice win. Was concerned when Abner was throwing in the pen but thankfully Priester got it done.

Gettem tomorrow for Woody!

Hall for 3, Quinn for 6, done.

Correct

[edfunderburk]

One game back of flailing Cubbies

[markedman5]

Durbin had a really bad May……other than that……not bad at all

1.8 War before tonight…….

He would definitely be in the top 4 or 5 in Rookie of Year race as of now.

Sophia is an all-time favorite broadcaster! She’s exceptional with postgame interviews. 👏

Perfect roll of the dice trade with upside ……trading an expiring contract from a position of strength……..Arnold is the man.

Vaughn actually has a better xwOBA than Hoskins this year and that was before tonight where it will be going up again. He was just one of the unluckiest hitters in MLB this year when he was on the Sox

It’s definitely a testament to the MLB scouting that they had their eye on a guy and were able to make a trade for someone they believed in before Civale’s vocal cords stopped vibrating.
