  1. I was more in the camp of Peralta being a reliever but he may be changing my mind....and they may need that.
  2. Yeah, I'll keep the Williams kid. Command looks fine to me.
  3. You must have a very loose definition of TOR arm if you think there was a deal to be had for one involving Santana. Let's give Stearns some credit, if an actual ace was available for Santana he would have pulled the trigger. He is not dumb. He was interested in dealing Santana all the way back at the Winter Meetings in December before there was any sign that Yelich and Cain were going to be Brewers so the fact that Santana was not dealt even after those deals is a pretty certain sign that the trade market for Santana was extremely underwhelming. I wish Santana, or Braun, or at least Broxton, had been traded. But the OF trade market stunk. It is what it is. Guys like Corey Dickerson ended up available for basically nothing. I guess I don't define a TOR as an ace (our definition of an ace could vary wildly as well) necessarily. I do believe there were trade opportunities available for arms significantly better than we currently have at three of our rotation spots. Call that TOR or something else. Let me put if differently. I'd be comfortable with Broxton or Phillips playing while Yelich is hurt if it meant a significant upgrade over what we currently have at back end of the rotation.
  4. Good thing those aren't the most important stats out there by any means. I will agree the defense has been putrid however. Except those are two of the areas we were told we were going to see significant improvement.
  5. We don't know that. They admitted to being close to trading him twice during the off season. DS may not have been able to find a way to finish off those deals but we don't know why. Presumably secondary pieces. There were deals to be had.
  6. I'd live with Broxton or Phillips starting while Yelich is hurt if that meant we had a TOR arm and I wouldn't think twice about it.
  7. Burnes had a really nice start tonight. Hopefully he can keep it up.
  8. Didn't they say he was likely to miss the weekend. That was my impression anyway.
  9. Better than I expected. I guess that's good news.
  10. Was Houser stretched out during the spring? I hoping against hope they are bringing him up to start.
  11. More likely he just had a hammy that was ready to pop. He had the appropriate warm up time.
  12. Are you watching the games? They've fallen behind by 4 runs or more in 4 straight games. Their closer is headed to the DL, possibly for the season and they are back to their old ways of boneheaded play and not making contact. The manager is way too lax. The hitting coach should have been fired a long time ago. In short this kind of play is unacceptable. Period. Good news is there's time to make changes before it's a total loss. I just keep thinking of the Monty Python Black Knight skit.
  13. I'm guessing a pretty significant hamstring injury. He just kind of crumbled to the ground, couldn't walk off under his own power.
