  1. At zero point in the history of the game has winning division titles and winning 90 games been considered "faux competing"...
  2. So, does Devin get a WS ring?
  3. Nola is better than Freddy, but he's pretty much as frustrating to Phillies fans as Freddy is to Brewers fans.
  4. Two best closers in baseball stinking up the joint this postseason. Postseason is awesome, but a great deal random. Gotta remember that. And also never give out big time money to relievers....
  5. With Jackson Chourio, I think we'll get to experience the best of both worlds. Also, William Contreras is statistically the best catcher in baseball right now.....
  6. Beat the Brewers become worldbeaters. A tale as old as tine.
  7. Nelson is irrelevant as he had a totally different, much more severe injury than Woodruff. Being 17 months removed from surgery does matter though as it increases the likelihood he'll be fully healed from his procedure. These things take time, as we saw with Ashby who only regained his stuff in July/August. Also, do you really think this organization is in the business of paying $17 million for a player for PR reasons? Like I said, I don't think it's wise to count on Woodruff returning to the top 10 starting pitcher he was prior to the injury given the nature of shoulder injuries, but odds are pretty good he'll be in the rotation in 2025 given the financial commitment and time distance from his surgery.
  8. I don't think it's that irresponsible to count on him being in the rotation considering they paid $17 million for him. He'll be 16 months removed from surgery by ST, which is where Ashby was when he regained his form. Counting on him to be an ace is a different thing, but odds are he'll be in the rotation.
  9. Ohtani>Judge.
  10. And we had them dead....Thanks a lot, Devin.
  11. It's happening again....
  12. Kinda frustrating seeing the Guardians who are no better than us dominating in the ALDS. Postseason often comes down to luck of the draw. Really wish we could've gotten that bye, and we would've had we been in the AL.
  13. It’s certainly a legitimate question. I’d like to think he realizes a move off SS is in his future regardless, and that he wouldn’t lose much, if anything, in FA so long as he rebounds to all-star caliber form with the bat. I think I’d take the risk just due to the bat.
  14. Two bits of anecdotal evidence from last night that have me convinced now more than ever that Chourio will be the one to save us from our collective postseason misery and finally lead us to the promised land.... 1) Catches the final out of the top of the 9th inning and proceeds to full-scale heave the ball into the second deck. 2) After being left in the on deck circle as the potential tying run after Turang's GIDP, stares into the crowd for a solid minute, and then as the Mets are celebrating on the field, shatters his bat into a million pieces This kid, at 20 years of age in his first season, already wants it as badly as we all do....
  15. We really should get in on the Bo Bichette sweepstakes this winter. Cost is going to be relatively limited given the season he's coming off of and his 1 remaining year of control. But, assuming he returns to all-star form (which I think is a solid assumption at 27 going on 28), you'd have effectively replaced Adames' production and would be set up nicely in the IF. I'd be fine giving up Tyler Black+, even for a rental like Bichette.
  16. Was thinking about this last night as I was unable to sleep. For as dominant as Devin is according to all the major statistics, there is just a tiny bit of variance with him because he relies so heavily on the changeup and doesn't really overpower guys with his fastball on its own. When he doesn't have pristine control of the changeup such as last night or in St. Louis, for example, he gets behind hitters who are able to wait him out until he either walks them or gives them a hittable pitch in the zone. This is one of the many reasons I'm in favor of trading him. I'd much rather rely on closers such as Megill or Clase or Hesley who simply overpower guys with their fastball even if it's left over the plate.
  17. All I know is that it’s about more than just winning the division for me next year. I want that playoff bye so bad, and in hindsight it hurts how close we came to getting it.
  18. I think one thing that's clear is that this playoff format sucks and needs to be revised. You're absolutely screwing over the teams that actually win their division over a 162 game season. Home field is not enough in baseball. I think the obvious solution is that division winners should only have to win one game to advance, while the Wild Card teams need to win two.
  19. If we didn't have Jackson Chourio, I don't know what I'd do......
  20. Contreras at least has an excuse with his injury, but talk about going out with a whimper between Williams and Adames.
  21. Good riddance. Time to cash out on this choker. Should be able to get a solid piece or two.
  22. Please Devin no heart attack inning I beg of you.
  23. Gotta steal here. Diaz is sooo slow too the plate.
  24. Hardest hit ball of Frelick's career, too, LOL
