    Dang, I see Devin imploded again.

    Interesting, Mississippi State is where we just got Hardin from. I've read that from release, Yoho's changeup and curve will end up nearly 2 ft from each other on opposite sides. I don't know Mannell, but I guess this formula is exactly what I'm pondering, so great pull. If he were to have one plus pitch with movement but nothing to counter it .. is that more moldable than just grabbing every guy that throws 97/98 and hoping they can develop a 2nd pitch?

    So what happened and how can we identify his type again moving forward? Mid round college arm. His peripheral '23 college stats at IU were good but not special (his K% was great). Injury filled career in college. He lasted 8 rounds in the draft ... now here we are less than 24 months later and he is poised to be working high leverage innings for us soon. What home run value at that draft slot. I've seen the Curt Hogg article from spring about his wrist flexibility ... but other than that has there been any front office chatter about why this transformation happened? Is it truly just about one pitch being that special or can we identify other arms who have the makeup to create such contrasts in movement if we can develop a counter pitch with them? The fast start from Tyson Hardin this year with Wisconsin has me wanting to dive into mid grades on college pitchers and find the guys who have + arms but are at treading programs... What great value to the organization if you can find middle round arms and develop them into trade pieces... the Yoho thing on top of it is just a wild outcome.

    Hardin was a 12th Rd pick for us last year... It won't take too many more starts like he has had to open the year before he gets bumped up. Nice little surprise for the TRats thus far. Inflated trade value currently ;)

    Excited to see him, congrats Logan!

    Of note re: McMahon ... he is 4-59 (.068) in his career hitting at AmFam Field. That isn't a typo. Ryan McMahon Career Batting Splits | Baseball-Reference.com

    Typically a platoon is a left/right combo so you can match against pitchers. Capra/Durbin isn't much of a platoon save maybe late inning defense. If Durbin hits, he is going to be the everyday 3rd baseman. If he doesn't .. we start window shopping with other clubs.

    I wonder if Boston will give us back our PTBNL for Dunn? :)

    I'm still struggling with the thought of moving Turang from 2nd. He was just named the best defensive player in baseball there last year. Are we sure his defense at SS is similar? Reminds me of when the Packers had no ILB so they moved Clay and effectively eliminated their own pass rush. If our issue is at 3B we should be solving this issue with a 3B? Not putting a bandaid on it and creating an issue elsewhere - ESPECIALLY when the band aid involves eliminating our greatest strengths defensively. If Turang is a Gold Glove SS then fine ... I'm just leery.

    That pitch to Elko showed 90 on the gun, is that a slider for Mis? It didn't slide anywhere.. :/

    That Carolina lineup is just so fun to look at on paper. Selfishly can't wait for them to get to Appleton in a few months.

    A little tough luck for Peek getting pulled with the bases loaded and having all 3 of them then score and he was charged with all of them. He wasn't happy getting taken out either, when the mound visit started he put his hands up in the air asking why and did they same thing walking off the field to the pitching coach ... then went straight to talk to the PC when he got to the dugout. It wasn't in a show up way.. I think he really wanted to work through that himself though.

    Crazy to watch Quintana not have his best stuff, not have the usual command ... and here we are through 4 and they are scoreless. Professional pitcher this one.

    Hoskins suddenly hitting .240
  15. liveforoctober
    Shut us all up Rhys. Get hot man.
  16. liveforoctober
    Optically it is just really important for our DH to be able to hit. That felt good. BA well above .175 now ;)
  17. liveforoctober
    well placed ground ball Dunn ;)
  18. liveforoctober
    Almost wanted Joey to swing at that 3-2 pitch for fear of an inevitable Dunn ground ball here.

    Turang is listed at 190lb and he looks about 2/3 the size of Montero ha

    26 in the first. We might be seeing Henderson today after all?
  21. liveforoctober
    Here he is a week ago. I'm not buying 145.
  22. liveforoctober
    What a trade for Priester. Never doubted it for a second.
  23. liveforoctober
    I probably agree that Hoskin gets the rest of the month to figure things out. After that, he may find himself with a lingering quad issue or something that lands him on the DL for 3 weeks so Ernesto can come show the team if he is going to be overmatched.
  24. liveforoctober
    Just to prepare you moving forward, there are going to be plenty of games the rest of the season where we play better than the opponent and don't win.

    Flush yesterday. Can I request a Jake Bauers start please against the RHP?
