    Will be interesting to see what they do. They had been piggybacking Jimenez and Hernandez so I could see Hernandez coming in to start the 6th (assuming he is healthy, I think he left his last appearance with an injury)

    That was a great AB from Gray Jr. Kind of bummed it didn't end with a positive outcome, but going from 0-2 down to an 11 pitch AB is impressive. He also had a couple of well hit foul balls down the LF line.

    The second solo shot was just ridiculous. Shoulder high FB that the dude just tomahawked out of the park to LF.

    Robert Gasser absolutely shoved today. 7 IP, 5 H, 0 ER, 0 BB, 9 SO. 57% zone rate (by far his best this season). This is the guy we saw after the trade deadline last season.

    Adames was on the rail. He also wasn't really paying attention that closely (although I'm not sure that would have made a difference). Here's a video of it.

    In market Padres fans that have MLB.tv cannot watch the Padres games. You need to sign up for a specific individual package to watch their games.

    Reese Olson making his MLB debut for the Tigers this week. (Anyone know what Daniel Norris is doing these days?) Wish him luck but will always regret trading him away for Norris.
  8. Lucas O.
    Gasser is cruising so far. He gave up a hard hit single off the wall in LF but that has been his only baserunner through 3 innings.
  9. Lucas O.
    Think that's probably the win of the season so far. Coming back from being down 6-0 through 6 innings is an incredible feat.
  10. Lucas O.
    Joe Gray Jr just said "HECK NO" to the Cardinals devil magic that Peoria was trying to pull off.
  11. Lucas O.
    This ump is criminal. Stole a strike 3 from him in the next AB as well. Thankfully Uribe took it into his own hands with a K-swinging.
  12. Lucas O.
    Yeah I had a feeling it was going to be that inning for him after he hit the second hitter. Feel like he's pitched so much better than his ERA this year but has had a big blowup inning in a bunch of games.
  13. Lucas O.
    Feels like Cornielle has had 1 blowup inning in every start this season where he just completely loses it. That inning feels like it is upon us today. Already walked in a run and there are still 0 outs.
  14. Lucas O.
    Just not sure I agree with that. Brewers will have a ton of leverage dealing the best pitcher on the market. There would likely be a bidding war for him.
  15. Lucas O.
    If Burnes was made available on the trade market, he would still get quite a lot. He'd easily be the most sought after SP which will drive up his value.
  16. Lucas O.
    Bummed it’s not Singleton but thankful that I get some time off from watching Jesse Winker play baseball for the Brewers. With any luck we’ve seen his last AB as a Brewer.
  17. Lucas O.
    I would prefer they play every team home and away during the season but that probably involves too much travel. Divisional - 13 games each (52 games total) Intraleague - 5 games each, home-away 2-3 game series swapping each year (50 games total) Interleague - 4 games each, home-away 2 game series (60 games total)
  18. Lucas O.
    I like it for the minor leagues, but I don't think I would want it at the MLB level. I am a fan of the balanced schedule and playing every team every single year. You couldn't do that with the MiLB schedule.

    The offensive environment was far worse last season than this season so I don't know why you think it's okay to use his OBP last season in comparison to how players are performing this season. Ruf currently has a .360 OBP this season which is second to only Owen Miller. Yeah I thought you made the comment Turbo did about Hiura. I rescind the comment I made about Hiura.
  20. Lucas O.
    .322 OBP was 10 points better than the MLB average OBP last season. Why are you acting like that’s a bad OBP? You dislike metrics like wRC+ but then set arbitrary OBP numbers as determinants whether a player was a good or bad hitter? You’re talking crap about Hiura in this comment when your most recent comment in this thread is how the Brewers misused Hiura not playing him more??? Make it make sense please.
  21. Lucas O.
    Actually good is quite the overstatement.
  22. Lucas O.
    I'd say if we didn't pick up Ruf that we could give him a shot, but I think Ruf is just a better fit for a weakside 1B/DH platoon than Aguilar at this point.
  23. Lucas O.
    Just for some context on how bad this Cardinals defense has been in comparison to last season. DRS - 67 in 2022 (4th), currently -1 in 2023 (19th) UZR/150 - 6.3 in 2022 (2nd), currently -2.0 in 2023 (21st) Framing - -3.4 in 2022 (18th), currently -1.3 in 2023 (18th) OAA - 26 in 2022 (4th), currently -1 in 2023 (17th) Defensive value - 33.9 in 2022 (3rd), currently 3.4 in 2023 (13th) They've dropped off from an elite defense to a below average defense. That's a huge development for a team with a starting rotation that isn't great at striking hitters out.
  24. Lucas O.
    I think it's also fair to ask if this Cardinals team is as good as last years team. The pitching is clearly worse. No Yadi, Mikolas and Wainwright are each a year older, Quintana left in FA. The offense might be worse. Neither Goldschmidt nor Arenado are replicating their career offensive peaks last season. The defense is substantially worse. Loss of Bader and Yadi. Incorporating Gorman, Burleson, Yepez, Walker into the lineup who are all poor defenders. Contreras major drop off at C. The Cardinals certainly have a great offensive team but their roster has substantial holes as well and that's not being taken into consideration enough.
  25. Lucas O.
    Who are the pitchers that performing significantly worse than they have in the recent past? Mikolas in 2022 had an 85 ERA-, 100 FIP-, 95 xFIP- (mostly just greatly overperformed his peripherals last season) compared to 101 ERA-, 101 FIP-, 101 xFIP-. He's also 34 so a slight drop off wouldn't at all be surprising. Flaherty has struggled with injuries so hasn't pitched much the last few years but last year he had a 109 ERA-, 127 FIP-, 123 xFIP- compared to 115 ERA-, 109 FIP-, 107 xFIP- this season. Performing pretty much on par with how he did last season. Montgomery had a 90 ERA-, 91 FIP-, 87 xFIP- last year and has a 107 ERA-, 93 FIP-, 94 xFIP-. His ERA will probably stabilize as the year goes on but peripherals are largely the same. Wainwright is 40 and has lost has career battery mate so him having huge issues this year is not at all surprising. Especially considering he was terrible to close out last season. Has an ERA over 6 in his last 11 starts dating back to last season. Now if you want to talk about pitchers wildly underperforming relative to past results, Burnes and Peralta are far better examples.
