Couldn't tell until they replayed because they still insist on occassionally panning to the silly behind the catcher camera for the pitch.

I've been down on our pen but I actually don't think they are too far off from where we need them to be. We got Houser back -- he and Peralta have been outstanding in the pen. If you got one, preferably two arms in the pen to add to that, you could be in a lot better shape. It's just disappointing that neither or Barnes or Williams was able to grow and step into the Knebel role this year.

Baseball trade values website
adambr2 replied to johnbitzer's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Which makes me very surprised that you value Jesus Aguilar as a 7.6. Obviously the Brewers agree as they've stuck with him through some very rough stretches this season. -
Saladino is so bad.
-
Atta boy Moose! Huge!
-
So they're beating the teams they should beat, which is what we failed to do in June. Nothing we can do about it but deal with it and try to improve ourselves. This constantly living and dying with every Cubs win or loss in July isn't productive at all.
-
Anyone expecting Gio to be some kind of big difference maker for the rotation is going to be disappointed. The best part about it is probably going to be getting Houser back as a pen option.
-
I don't think Dubon has been down 10 days yet, and he'd be the logical swap. I just don't trust the offensive numbers being put up by the other IFers in San Antonio like Spangenberg, Orf, Hager, etc. I don't know how much I trust them either, but I do know they almost literally could not be worse.
-
The nutso thing with Saladino still being here is that he has an option. Like they don't even have to DFA him. They can just send him down and they're not doing it.
-
Oh, how I wish we still had Will Smith right now. Trading him for Phil Bickford (he of the 7.59 ERA at high A ball, right now) and Andrew Susac (who's in AAA....for the Royals) was a real head scratcher. What? Obvously we'd love to have it back now, but this is total benefit of hindsight. At the time we were in a full tear down rebuild, about to trade Lucroy. Bickford was a recent 1st round pick and top 60 overall prospect, and Susac was still considered a decent prospect and a former top 100. At the time it was considered to be a fantastic return and you'd be hard pressed to find a single individual if you dug up that thread that wasn't thrilled with it.

Moose has not been very good lately.
-
If they do that, they are obviously waving the white flag on the season. That would be pathetic. Just go get an arm and be done with it. Problem solved. He's our best pitching prospect. It is not unusual or waving a white flag in the least for a team to give their best pitching prospect a shot at the MLB level. It is how we got Peralta and Burnes here last year.
-
I'm amazed at how many fat middle middle pitches Junior throws. IMO he's our worst reliever.
-
He's worth nothing. A few decent starts was bound to happen at some point, but his 2019 body of work is terrible. Fortunately unlike Suppan, he's not here on a long commitment.
-
So, Chacin still sucks.
-
Waa that called Strike 1 to Grandal as horrifically bad as Gameday shows?
-
Which one of these guys is a TOR arm?
-
Swapping Saladino for Spangenberg is certainly fine by me, but Shaw is the bat we've got to try to work back in eventually. (Not at Hiura's expense of course). We've seen with Saladino how much a journeyman raking in San Antonio means.
-
All that said, it would be nice to have the kind of stretch where we win like 9 out of 10 games and get back to where we were before the big slump started.

Relief Pitching Options
adambr2 replied to BrewCrewBlueDevil's topic in Transaction Rumors & Proposals
Shane Greene, Will Smith and Ken Giles would be my top 3 choices in no particular order. I'd take whichever costs the least. -
He seemed plenty ready last year both in the postseason and regular season. I just don't know what happened since then.
-
The revision of Baseball america's top 30 prospects for each team came out today. They have Grisham at #9. Dont remember where he was previously. That's way too low. No matter where everyone is at on the Grisham hype train I think we can all agree there are not 8 better prospects in our system at this very moment than Trent Grisham.
-
This bullpen is a huge problem. You've got one reliable guy. Trade, put Houser back in the pen, I don't know, but you've got to fix this pen.
-
I actually like this idea a lot. I don't believe the argument that Hiura is just too young to handle batting higher in the order. He's just a great natural hitter, and if he's not cracking under the pressure of playing in the big leagues for the first time, I don't expect him to suddenly cave under the pressure of batting leadoff.
-
Poor Chase. Honestly, you're right, it's really probably not that big of a deal to either Anderson or Stearns, but I think many of us felt the same way Anderson does.
