It feels good to be right. It feels better to WIN! -
Now turn that Raptor into a Vulture!
-
Devin's been pitching his best ball all season lately. Calling a Rowdy walkoff.
-
That was a heck of a catch.

What do guys even do when they're promoted/demoted between minor league levels? Like live out of their car or splurge for a hotel while they hope to find a month-to-month apartment probably with furniture during the few hours a day they're not at the park during the 50% of the time they're in town? Noticed a big advertisement at the Mudcats stadium for a new housing development going up, "Be Muddy's Neighbor!" Why wouldn't the organization make an investment for four or five of those? It would run $2M, in a market that appreciated well prior to this year's craziness and will continue to go up in value, and that alone could hold 20+ players comfortably.

I'll take the under on that Give me the odds and I will take that bet I bet you can make a ton of money on that. Pittsburgh is not a professional baseball team after dumping everyone Seemed like they did the Pittsburgh thing and screwed that up by going for a bunch of AAAA players rather than legit prospects. Might be good enough to steal a couple.

They did this with Strickland too. My only guess is they try to wait a day hoping for a false positive and to test out of it with negatives. Unfortunately, that's a very slim chance.

Houser and Gustave test positive for Covid

Lindblom has been really good for Nashville, I guess. When do we start getting people back, or perhaps, when can we cancel a couple games to buy time until we get people back? -
Ashby: 6 IP, 0 R, 1 H, 1 BB, 11K First inning was 10 pitches, 3 strikeouts. It's like as soon as he's a starter without a limited pitch count he turns back into a really good pitcher. Strange.
-
Some of the best changes all year the last two outings for Williams.
-
Things you never thought you'd hear a month ago: I can't wait for Jandel Gustave to come back from the IL so he can take some late inning work.
-
Our 4-6 are better than several team's 1-3.
-
So Perdomo up today because they couldn't find anyone in time, Romano tomorrow, and Gustave back by Friday so Romano can be re-DFA'd (assuming no more COVID and Gustave doesn't come up positive)? Did I get that right? If so, I missed my calling working for SpaceX.
-
That may be it. Would probably need to be healthy and get a chance to pitch again in the next three days, assuming Gustave is good to come back.
-
It was a fun moment.
-
The AxMan is in the ballpark. No word if we brought his 2011 Rolaids Relief Man trophy with him.

Hader to Covid IL - Latest: Hader reinstated, Milner to AAA
folly412 replied to markedman5's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Don't they need to produce multiple positives (or not have a positive cancelled out by negatives) to try to avoid false positives? Thought this might have been why there was a day lag on Strickland being placed on the list, in hopes they might be able to mulligan out of it. if you're placed on the injured list as a close contact, it's because you are not fully vaccinated. fully vaccinated players who test negative cannot be placed on the injured list for close contact. Given the 85% threshold for loosened restrictions, doesn't this mean there can't be more than 4 who aren't vaccinated? Assuming all the roster changes didn't mess up the threshold calculation. That may at least indicate that our "close contact" cap could be anywhere between already reached and up to two more. -
I'm proud to have just edited the Rolaids Relief Man Award Wikipedia page to denote that 2011 winner John Axford is an active player.
-
His (limited) numbers are indeed better than any of them. Kind of surprised Lindblom hasn't been in the picture with his fantastic AAA numbers, though they possibly view him as starting depth only. Luke Barker is also having a nice season and probably the next best choice.
-
He dominated AAA coming back from injuries. May the story get even cooler!
-
Seems File is doing ok (1 run in four innings), considering his "rehab" is actually his AAA debut and he'll almost certainly be optioned there upon being activated. Keeping walks in check but giving up a high number of hits - wonder if the velocity isn't where it needs to be yet?
-
So the Mets didn't sign Kumar Rocker, supposedly over health concerns. Boras puts out a statement denying that, with evidence backing the claim. Strange stuff. Further down the rabbit hole, Rocker won't be returning to Vanderbilt and can't play in affiliated ball until he's drafted again and signs. [sarcasm]Maybe he will sign with the Fon Du Lac Dock Spiders and the Northwoods League stuff that scrolls at the bottom endlessly during the Bally telecasts will almost have a point.[/sarcasm]

More road winnings! Let's make the Pirates look terrible again.
