  1. Mask wearing is important, and I wear one regularly as required, but mask shaming has got to stop. There are plenty of legitimate medical reasons for people not to wear one. I have a friend with two autistic children, for example (one older), and taking them out in public is already challenging -- (not to mention her children are still trying to adapt to a masked society), without worrying about comments or dirty looks in public. If you see someone without a mask on and you're not responsible for that business or venue, mind your business, keep your distance if it makes you feel better, and move along with your day.
  2. Yelich's projections are in line with those of an MVP caliber player. If we need him to hit to projections just to be a slightly less than average offense overall, that's probably not a good thing.
  3. CC needs to get fired up tonight. This umpire is flat out putting two zones out there. Bauer gets a nice wide one and we get a postage stamp.
  4. Your idea of "best case" is odd. Yeah, that seems to be the worst case scenario. 2020: "Hold my beer."
  5. Not for Bauer. He got two very generous calls from this ump in the first, one on Holt and one on Yelich.
  6. Not sure what Urias' wrist would have to do with him not getting called up now. Would have made sense back in April, but that's been healed for a long while.
  7. That has been one of the more baffling developments this year. Counsell did say he was being careful with his usage because it being early in the season, but I don’t like him being tied to the 9th. Same. I don't like pigeonholing almost any reliever for a specific inning, but especially Hader. His versatility as a reliever is what makes him so valuable.
  8. I think it's just that CC has a lot of confidence in Phelps. Plus lots of righties. He almost payed dearly for that confidence. Very lucky inning for Phelps.
  9. Here he is in Appleton yesterday. Surprised they haven’t called on him, I guess the fact Mathias can play more positions (including OF) might have been the reason they went with him for the recent call up. I guess color me baffled. We gave up a really good young player and a decent pitcher to get him. I can't believe he isn't a big immediate part of our plans.
  10. Obviously we intend on turning Hader into a traditional 1 inning closer, which i think is a bad move.
  11. What's going on with Urias? He's out with COVID-19, right? Wasn't that several weeks ago now?
  12. Whether we have a struggling Yelich or no Yelich at all, this is a woeful lineup.
  13. I'm blown away that Hiura somehow has a .788 OPS this season. Seems to me like he's whiffing away every time he's up.
  14. I found that strike 1 call to Hiura to be really annoying after last inning.
  15. Great outing by Houser. It would be fantastic if his career path ends up being similar to the Woodruff route and we have both in our rotation for yesrs to come.
  16. No one is saying that at all. I think most of us, myself included were in favor of that deal. However, I also loved Grisham, and obviously the Padres did as well, very much, since the general concensus at the time was that they took a lot less value in that deal. However, it has been far more than a week since something has seemed to "click" with Grisham. It's certainly starting to look possible that he could become a special player. If that happens, it indeed would be a really tough loss for our future outfield especially having watched his development through our system over the years and seeing how far he's come in the last year.
  17. Except that the runner on 2nd in extras has to be the player who made the final out in the previous inning. Shouldn't be hard to get him to make the last out in the 9th.
  18. If Yelich doesn't find his GOD mode this year, I think this team goes about 25-35. There's just not a lot of talent. Hopefully Hiura gets it going, but there's not a ton of young up and comers here like the White Sox have. We have one good starter and that still wasn't enough tonight. The lineup is just punchless. Even if Yelich does get it going, he doesn't have much help.
