  1. Finally a night game, I would really have liked to see Freddy pitch today. I get that we want to be easy on him but it seems like we need a boost and the Royals do have Ragans going tomorrow. I get that this isn't a must win this early on but if Patrick only goes like 3 innings our bullpen will be dead and we play 25 games in 27 days. My guess is it will be Patrick for 75 pitches and then Connor Thomas after that which worries me that we are going to give up a ton of runs again. Here's to hoping we see the AAA version of Patrick from last year we need 6+ innings bad right now. I know I read that Quintana should be scheduled to start the 11th and Myers and Woody need 2 or 3 more outings before they are ready but that could be an eternity if we don't get some length from our starters.
  2. Why is Yeli in left, Chourio makes that play and saves 3 runs.
  3. Civale on DL looks like we will find out. After watching Thomas the essential trade of Shane Smith for Connor Thomas looks awful especially if reports of Smith hitting upper 90 to 100 in spring are true.
  4. If the big league club needs some innings in the next couple days do we go to CarRod because of his good start or Henderson because of the better spring?
  5. For me we need a No. 1 capable WR not really depth. I do love a ton of WR in this draft and coulds see some guys as late as round 3 having WR 1 upside. So WR I'd like top tier for me but once we get into like the 3rd it actually drops to like 3rd tier. It would be nice to find a bigger pass rusher who could be a end on rushing downs and a DT on passing downs (Harmon?). Otherwise I think DT is above Edge as well, Gary, Van Ness, Enegbare, Cox, and Mosby is solid. It would be nice to have a guaranteed 10+ sack guy but at 23 I don't know if anyone fits that bill. To be honest CB is my only tier 1 and that is if Jaire is gone.
  6. If Tet McMillan falls past say 15 would we be interested in trading for him? I would but really only have seen highlight reels. I would love to get Will Johnson or Barron in the 1st and then double up with Morrison in the 2nd. Especially if we let Jaire walk. I also love Nick Emmanwori, any chance we would play him at LB? With our 3 safeties on hand I doubt we really would go after him unless he plays out of position.
  7. With Mone, Collins, Capra, and Dunn I don't see Leonard doing much different. As AAA depth ok but he really doesn't move the needle much, I would rather see Anthony Seigler and Raynel Delgado for now.
  8. 2 observations that I felt really changed the game. 1. In the second, Cortes got Judge to ground out into a potential inning ending double play. Turang didn't make a great throw but Rhys had one of the worst dig attempts I've seen (I haven't seen a replay so maybe not as bad as my 1st impression). That play really shifted momentum because the Yanks went 1B, 3R HR, walk. 2. I don't get bringing in Connor Thomas after Nestor. Hey the Yanks dismantled Cortes, let's bring in the exact same pitcher. That should have been Patrick and go to Thomas later if you need more length. I am going to try no to overreact to that one. It was good to see our offense put up a strong outing especially with Fried to start (and amazingly throwing up to 97-98, 93.8 Ave fastball last year).
  9. EMJ is quickly becoming my favorite for 1st next year. Has there been any rumblings on a Mike Boeve eta, it would be nice to get him in the IF mix soon-ish as well. Is April 4th the other leagues openers?
  10. Super excited to have these back, I love to read then on my lunch and they are the best stress reducer. Also super excited to see CarRod get off to a good start. I think that he still has a great shot at the rotation next year. Ray Delgado looks like a perfect AAA infielder with some upside. Great find, even if losing Hicklen (and Black for a couple months) hurts we did well finding upside minor league bats like Herron, Siegler, and Oliva.
  11. I wish there was a little more offense yesterday. JlFreddy looked good other than those 2 1st row on in Yankee Stadium HR's. The pen (keonig) was a bit shaky but it's early so no worries. Onward and upward
  12. If his wife is pulling a veto we need to go dirty. The Dirty Sanchez The Hot Carl Rusty Trombone The Houdini (works on a couple levels) The Chili Dog The Dump Truck If you are juvenile as I am looking these up was a blast. If squeamish dont.
  13. I like Dailyn Swain from Xavier only a sophomore good size to play 3 or 4. Not a great shooter (showed improvement) but will attack the basket like Tonje. Not sure if we have shown any interest.
  14. Who do we think the surprise team that has been good, but is going to stink this year and have a fire sale. My guess is 1 team from the AL Central Twins, Guardians, Royals and one other team. Either NL West Giants or Padres or AL East Blue Jays or Rays. Add in the Cubs and Cardinals after we decimate them for good measure and the could be a lot on the trade market.
  15. I love the Sal home run prediction 2 to 6 Italian food. NIOCE I am all in on the Joey Ortiz as a better player than Adames. Joey had a 2.7 WAR last year hitting .239/.329/.398, I really think he ends up being a .280 hitter in his prime. Say .260/.350/.425 this year. It might take another year but I think Ortiz will have the reliability of JJ Hardy with a lot less streaking in the bat.
  16. I have always looked at Collins as more of a 2B but looking at stats he has played a lot more OF. Still with 4 everyday OF and Bauers likely I don't see a need for Collins. I am sure Dunn or Capra could play a decent emergency 6th OF if needed.
  17. I don't think Collins outplayed Mone in anyway so I am also thinking the 26th man isn't on the roster and Collins will go down. I would rather go with Patrick or Henderson over guys like Dunning or Flexen. Adam Ottavino would be a decent relief option, at 39 he had good k numbers and a 3.67 fip shows better than his 4.34 era. I haven't seen an bats released that excite me.

WWW.FACEBOOK.COM Everybody loves a good 100mph FB #ncaa #baseball #mlb #sports #wow #pitcher #baseballlife. 5'10" throws 100, has some serious swag. I don't see him in the mlb top 100. Sign me up.
  19. Does Quintana start on the IL if he isn't making his 1st start? I still like Tyler Black as the backup 1st baseman/5th OF/occasional DH/LH bench bat, I get his Spring had been rough. He does match up better as a LH 1st baseman and better OF than Bauers (splitting hairs) and Canha. In all likelihood, Black goes to AAA and get consistent PT for a bit but at some point sooner than later that spot should be his. On top of that, I would let both Canha and Bauers go if/when Black is ready because I think at some point Ernesto Martinez and/or Mike Boeve will likely be ready for a cup of coffee in the bigs. Contreras, Rhys, Turang, Joey, Dunn, Sal, Mitchell, Chourio, Yeli (everyday) Haase, Durbin, Bauers (for like a month), Capra (bench) Freddy, Civale, Nestor, Henderson (rotation to start until Q on roster) Megill, Huddy, Koenig, Payamps, Peguero, Thomas, Thomas, Rodriguez, Alexander, Uribe (suspended) (pen) IL=Woody, Quintana, Ashby, Hall, Myers, Perkins (there is a decent rotation there on the IL already) When Quinata come back Uribe goes back, when Woody is back Alexander/Rodriguez/Henderson, when Mears, Myers, Hall, Ashby, and Yoho are ready it will depend on who is pitching the best at that point.
  20. I would rather give the young(er) guys who have a shot at a rotation spot next year get the shot 1st. Thomas probably has had the best spring (unless he has had a bad outing the past couple days), but probably the worst stuff of the group. Elvin Rodriguez is 27 so I dont have any problems with him getting a shot, Patrick could get the nod based on last year. However, I would go with Logan Henderson for 2 times through the order and then have a multi inning guy ready after him. Freddy, Civale, Nestor, Henderson, bullpen game (1st time) Freddy, Civale, Nestor, Henderson, Quintana (2nd) Freddy, Civale, Nestor, Henderson, Woody, Quintana (3rd) If Henderson has been good stick to the 6 man if not go 5 man until Myers is back.
  21. I would think any phone call to Baltimore starts with Freddy and with our rotation the way it is now that won't work. Maybe come some point in May when Woody, Hall, Ashby, and Myers are back or close it could be worked out. If the O's would want prospects I would think that the O's would want 2 of our top arms and one of the 3rd/1st prospects. Since they have a stacked roster of everyday players my guess would be Misi, Yoho/Henderson/Meccage, Bitonti, which I wouldn't do. The who does Pratt profile to debate is more like Dansby Swanson for me at this point. There is some room that if he adds power he could still have some Gunnar Henderson upside but for now with the defense a bit ahead of the bat Dansby is my comp.
  22. Roberts is a good coach, but also having a team of high paid vets will do that. Imagine what the Brewers would look like if we could have afforded to keep Willy, Burnes, Hader, Devin, and then had an top free agents like Mookie, Freeman, a couple 30 million dollar starters and 5-6 vets making 10-20 million. Not to mention Mr. 700.
  23. With Quintana did they say if he would make a start in the minors or could he just start and pitch like 3 or 4 innings and turn it to the pen early. With 6 games and 9 day Q could get 2 more starts. 2-3 innings/30-35 pitches Friday 21st (last pitched sunday) then 3-4 inn/45-50 pitches in a simulated game the 26th the day before the season. With the 2nd day of the season of Q could be ready for the 5th game even on a basic 60 pitch count.
  24. If we lose any more pitchers to injury what would you all think about Craig Kimbral (not as a closer but like a 6/7th inning guy). He still had great strikeout and whiff numbers, maybe our staff can help some location and find a mph or two back. I think he would be a low risk add at this point, again if we have further injuries.
  25. I wouldn't let Peralta go for nothing but I feel like it is an inevitability he gets traded next offseason. If there is a deal on the table for a top notch mlb 3B or mlb ready starter I would think about it, especailly if our vets are pitching well (and healthy when my trade idea 1st began) and the young guys are throwing well in AAA. I think at the deadline it would be alot harder but earlier in the year makes more sense, again if the staff is healthy and looking good.
