    Orlando is not Grandal level slow, but he certainly isn't as fast as a guy who is 170 pounds soaking wet should be.
  2. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Nice approach from Arcia again. Wow would it be nice if the 2018 playoffs version of Arcia made a comeback.
  3. Ron Robinsons Beard
    44 pitches through two innings isn't ideal, but I doubt a guy who has been starting all season and basically skipped a start when traded is going to be on a pitch count. He should be good to go for 100+ pitches. Whether that gets hi to 5 innings though?
  4. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Solid first inning for Lyles. I feel like every mostly clean inning we get out of him tonight is a little bit of a win.
  5. Ron Robinsons Beard
    The offense needs to score early and often tonight. Make it easier for Lyles.
  6. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Yet another Braves overhyped pitching prospect. There is definitely a trend there which has led to them going out and grabbing every outside arm they can find.
  7. Ron Robinsons Beard
    You are right. A lot of uncertainty going into next year. With what they are paying Cain, they need him to rebound and be productive next year as well. At 1B today's Aguilar deal all but guarantees that Thames' option will be picked up. Do they move Braun to 1B to platoon with Thames next year and open a spot for Grisham? Perhaps they could resign one of Moose or Grandal ... I mean Moose's market has been crap the last two offseasons, and while he's been decent this year, I can't imagine another team is going to suddenly decide to give him a 3-year, $50 million deal. Do they give Nottingham the chance to win the catcher's job? Pina? Freitas? As for the rotation, I agree that Woody and Davies are likely locks. I think Houser is getting close to being a lock as well. Do they bank on Burnes taking a much-needed leap? Faria is a talented dude that has a chance. Peralta? Definitely more uncertainty right now than at the end of 2018.
  8. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I don't know about that. That rightfielder seems pretty decent, and they have a young 2B who is hitting OK. Honestly, this is a team that has a legit super-duperstar in Yelich, and potential ones in Hiura and Woodruff. If they can make smart moves to surround those guys with solid MLB players, that is the foundation of a strong team for the next 3 years.
  9. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Lyles is taking Aguilar's roster spot.
  10. Ron Robinsons Beard
    While I'm not anywhere close to your "glass is half empty" take here, I was underwhelmed by what they managed to do. I am intrigued by the upside of Faria and Black. I think Pomeranz, if deployed as a mid-inning reliever, can have value. We'll see what Lyles can do. The pen, which was this team's major downfall, stands the chance of being better. Can they survive with basically 2 healthy starters and Houser until Gio is fully back? Maybe.
  11. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Well, that would be fun. I guess it makes some sense if Braun is going to see time at 1B. OF log jam if not, though. Braun is gonna get his ABs, and they wouldn't bring up a blazing hot Grisham to ride the pine.
  12. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Spot on. Gives the staff a shot in the arm, without giving up Moose or Grandal. Pomeranz's numbers as a reliever are very intriguing to me (2.83 ERA, 9.6 K/9). If he does well, he's worth bringing back. Might be worth retaining just as a dominating reliever who could go multiple innings. He's also only 1 1/2 years removed from a very solid 2-year run as a starter for the Red Sox. Only 30 years old too. Some Miley situational similarities.
  13. Ron Robinsons Beard
    That is certainly a "go for it" type return. Martin, Bukauskas and Beer are legit blue-chippers, and Rojas isn't too far behind.
  14. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Pretty big blow to an already pretty poor system.
  15. Ron Robinsons Beard
    That's fun. Astros have the bucks to eat that huge contract.
  16. Ron Robinsons Beard
    He was DFA'd. Probably got a little more than the claim cost.
  17. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Castellanos going to the Cubs apparently. Nice bat for them, but where does he play on D?
  18. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Aaron Sanchez going to the Astros. Good pickup for them. Legit huge upside there. Would have loved for the Brewers to grab him.
  19. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Lyles and Pomeranz are total gap fillers. Black and Faria have legit upside, though. The only determination you can make right now on the trades is "we'll see."
  20. Ron Robinsons Beard
    I think the Peralta starting this season ship has sailed. I obviously could be wrong, but I think he's in the pen for good from here out. He'll get another shot as a starter next year.
  21. Ron Robinsons Beard
    That seems really odd coming off of what he did last night. I mean I get that everyone needs rest, but you'd think you'd want to keep a hot bat in the lineup. Unless ...
  22. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Grisham is not in the lineup for the Missions tonight. That seems odd coming off his showing last night.
  23. Ron Robinsons Beard
    Probably not the best time to bash Houser starting coming off a terrific outing against a very good lineup. You are grasping at straws now. Take a deep breath and relax. 1 good start...1... how were his other ones earlier?? Note the difference between his bullpen/starter ERA. This is the same Adrian Houser that everyone here wanted moved back to the pen. That last sentence isn't true. At all. Houser had some growing pains no doubt, but he's shown very good stuff and has a future in the rotation. Again ... you need to calm down.
  24. Ron Robinsons Beard
    He should be ... in San Antonio.
