  1. It's September. everyone has aches and pains and strains at this point of the season. It's just a matter of what can you play through and what can't you. They have to find a comfortable middle ground. We're gonna struggle to score runs without Adames in the playoffs so it's gonna be important for him to get back and get some live in-game swings before the playoffs roll around.
  2. noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I was hoping to open this thread to see "Tim Lopes removed from 40 man"....... but here we are. Oof. I can live with Reyes being on the 28 man roster. But Lopes as well. Aaaaargh.
  3. Whatever Tampa is doing, they're doing well within their financial means. Back to whether or not to trade Hader..... I'm gonna agree with the consensus here. We're in a competitive window, and we have a guy that's one of the top 2 or 3 or five closers in the game right now. He doesn't even really appear to be subject to the reliever volatility that strikes most guys. He's just that good that you can count on him to be downright dominant. He's not a "pretty good" reliever who has swings from good to ok years. He's just dominant. Even in his "bad" year when he gave up 15 dingers he still had a 170 ERA+ and a 3.10 fip. Find a way to make it work until he becomes prohibitively expensive.
  4. I think playoff appearances and overall w/l record is a pretty decent way to gauge if a team's strategy is working. Baseball playoffs are so random. Look at the Dodgers. 8 straight appearances and the only year they won it was the Covid year. That's probably not indicative of their true talent level. If you're running a small market team, and consistently winning enough games to compete and make the playoffs, you're doing something right. Playoff baseball is weird. I'm not saying you shouldn't think about how baseball is played in the playoffs when you build your roster, but it's just not indicative of overall talent level. 5 and 7 game series don't normalize out at all. 2-3-4 guys have a cold snap at the wrong time or one Sean Marcum has a dead arm or your manager decides to start Mark Kotsay in CF for some reason, and that's all it takes in a short series.
  5. I feel like a CG shutout for us is how it feels for most other teams when they toss a no hitter.
  6. Normally I like to err on the side of caution with pitch counts and stuff, but Hader was ready to go, and houser wasn't losing his location and looked strong still.
  7. I cant stop looking at that picture of Rowdy Tellez's serious ass face peeking over R2-D2's body and I can't stop laughing rn. Who's idea was that?
  8. Yeah, the game plan sucked, the playcalling sucked, but it's fair to point out that Mertz sucked too. Both things can be true.
  9. Nice draw on that FG
  10. Motion and sweep fakes are making some space now.
  11. Wow. In real time that did not look like Davis got a foot in.
  12. Huge stop there. Man, this Penn St. kid has a HUGE leg.
  13. Another guy wide open deep. How does that keep happening/??
  14. Good flag pickup.
  15. Our defense playbook seems to be "don't cover anyone running deep down the middle"
  16. Can't help but notice the big gainer on that drive was the 27 yard pass on a really well executed play action. Huh.
  17. I'm not sure how Chryst can be watching this and be thinking "Yes. What we're doing is definitely working and we don't need to make any adjustments on offense"
  18. No motion. No play action. No nothing to make Penn State even try to guess what's going on. This is brutal to watch.
  19. I'm gonna say something obvious, but it's gonna take a big special teams play or a pick 6 or whatever to get something going in this game.
  20. Ref explained that very well.
  21. Who can we send to ND to get Coan back?
  22. I know we have a lot of talented, athletic guys, but man this offense looks as vanilla as one could possibly be... so far. I sure hope this is just "this is our first game" look.
