  1. I thought “probably” out, but in no way do I think that met overturn criteria.
  2. I actually think Turang had the play by a hair at 1st if he goes that way, contrary to what was said. But still, great looking play.
  3. I mean … Chourio hadn’t had one MLB plate appearance when he got his. So there’s precedent not to wait and see. Sure, you gain more certainty if you wait until the end of the season with Miz. But if he’s lights out all season and wins ROTY, he’s probably more inclined to play the long game and bet on himself than he would be right now.
  4. I suspect that we approach all our young starters as they come up with the opportunity for them to take life changing money now in exchange for taking a discount on their potential future earnings. When that is, I’m not certain — don’t know if we have anything like that yet for Miz, but I would never be opposed. It makes good business sense, and if something bad happens, it’s not franchise crippling. It’s like diversifying your portfolio. Burnes bet on himself, and won. Peralta took the early money, and it ended up being a great deal for us. No idea what the dollars would look like for Miz, but I imagine the structure would be the same as we often see in these deal, like with Chourio — money up front, and as many club options as we can tack onto the end. Just as a reminder — if we followed this for every young stud, we’d still be paying Keston Hiura (but it wouldn’t be crippling). I’d rather do this with every young potential star and take the risk that some won’t pan out, than venture too far out in free agency. Some just won’t do it — depends on the player, the agent, and their priorities. But it’s always worth the inquiry.
  5. Have to give him credit for going with the 4 out save to Megill, then. It was the right call and paid off. Things getting interesting I put mostly on Hall and Koenig. Hall wasn’t effective at all. Koenig needs to cover the bag. Those were the two biggest factors in the score getting as close as it did.
  6. Walks. Can’t do it, Hall. A big lead and you’re walking guys and all of the sudden a big lead has the potential to be a tie.
  7. I think he’s safe. Not sure enough to overturn or not. He came off the bag but Ortiz didn’t hold the glove on.
  8. We know who you’re secretly rooting for this series, so we thought it was reverse psychology.
  9. This outing so far for Quintana can be described as ugly, but effective. That's the kind of thing that works until it doesn’t, so Murphy would be wise to have a pretty short leash with him when the 3rd time through the order comes around, unless our lead grows by then.
  10. I totally forgot that Robert Gasser still exists too. The depth there when healthy is completely unprecedented for this franchise.
  11. Quintana needs a solid performance today to show that his early season successes weren’t just flukey. With Miz now having locked down a rotation spot for now, competition for a spot is going to be fierce especially when Woodruff returns. A solid 4-5 starter type won’t cut it, just ask Myers and Civale.
  12. Today is the first time this year that we woke up in playoff position (would be the 6 seed if the season ended today, via H2H tiebreaker over the Cardinals.)
  13. Given the lineup they’re facing this week, they should be able to continue that trend.
