  1. Shouldn’t of come back out for this inning. You have to be able to rely on others. If they can’t, then either go out and trade/sign/call up guys or call it a season. CC found a shiny new toy and can’t help himself. Freddy has always been a multi inning guy. I think he'll be used much like Hader is. In that situation, I get it. Especially with the meat of the order coming up for us in the 10th.
  2. The Cubs offense is generally garbage against us. I feel we could throw a fan out there and escape with little to no damage. Why would you do this to us?
  3. Sometimes rookies look like vets and vets look like rookies. I really do think the concept of not trying to pressure a guy like Hiura by putting him in the top of the order is overrated. He can handle it.
  4. Holland is an albatross against RHP but actually is a fairly effective LOOGY. At least he got the runner over even though that was a lot of luck too.
  5. We got a surprisingly good return for Jean Segura and if you can still get anything comparable for Arcia for any seller who still believes in him, just pull the trigger. His time here should come to an end.
  6. At this point you may as well option Arcia and Saladino, bring back Dubon to play every day and put Perez back on the 40 and 25 as the super sub. I get that the PCL is a big hitters league and Dubon isn't going to keep up what he's doing here but you literally have nothing to lose at this point. The shortstops we have are just awful.
  7. But you HAVE TO realize, you're saying that you're ok trading off people that have either little value or whose value is massively depressed (Burnes). You're not getting significant pieces for our crap. But YOU have to realize, you just don't know how another GM might value those pieces. No one does. Maybe someone loves Freddy and Burnes, and that brings back more than anyone thinks it can. Or maybe, some GM's would prefer a package of major league ready players with some upside(which all of them cept Pina and maybe Thames have), rather than taking back prospects. Maybe Arcia is highly regarded by certain GM's. None of us know any of that. Some GM's may prefer quantity over quality. They all have value, but none of us know how much. Look how cheap Diekman went. There is some truth to this, but there's a limit to it. Yes, GMs will have differing opinions on some guys, but common sense comes into play, too. Obviously, you know there's no GM out there who is going to give up a big return for Aaron Wilkerson, for instance. His numbers are solid. There's just some common sense to apply there. The other element here is that the guys you've been wanting are the big fish, and many teams want the big fish. Competition is tough against teams with top farms. Yes, it's true a team may still value Burnes. But if we're offering him and the Dodgers come offering Gavin Lux, for example, we're not going to win that bid. If offered the choice between a top prospect and a young reclamation project, again, it's just common sense.
