  1. Good job Contreras and Bauers. Way to make him work.
  2. Shocking that this lineup hasn't scored.
  3. Garbage 0-2 pitch with like your 5th best reliever in a bases loaded spot and a lefty vs righty matchup. Murphy doing everything he can to lose this game tonight.
  4. I didn't expect much when I saw the lineup but this is just horrible managing.
  5. Way to make your case to stay in the majors Perkins. Ridiculous to let that ball drop.
  6. Miz swearing on the broadcast. Hell yes.
  7. Keith Law in his chat (because I know you all like him) said ”I think Durbin just had his best year. I’d rather take the chance on helping Harrison than settling for Durbin’s low ceiling; the competitive balance B pick going to Boston isn’t nothing, though.”
  8. Funny how Wisconsin, as bad as they were this year played Indiana and Oregon on the road better than Texas Tech and Alabama did respectively.
  9. Deplete a major strength for barely any upgrade in a corner outfield.
  10. In no possible way Frelick more comparable to Braun as a player other than both being 1st round picks.
  11. I guess Frelick is more similar to Ryan Braun than he is to Collins since Frelick and Braun are both 1st round picks. And Frelick was only brought up as an example because all the talk is we got rid of Collins before he falls off and has no value because of his xBA and xSLG. I merely used Frelick to point out that his xBA and xSLG numbers are also way lower than his actual numbers and nobody is saying we should get rid of him before he regresses.
  12. So if we're going the "bunch of options" route, wouldn't it make sense to keep our best option from last year and if he falls back, you go with a different option? Especially since all we got in return is a modest bullpen upgrade to what is already a strength of the team at best and that assumes our pitching lab can fix Zerpa.
  13. If we're going this route, we should probably replace Frelick who had an xBA of .256 and xSLG of .337 And fangraphs has him at 0.1WAR in that same span. On top of this, shouldn't we try to be, I don't know, improving? Collins may very well turn back into a nobody but his actual contribution did happen last season. That should be our baseline, trying to improve on what every player provided last year. We have now removed one of our most productive hitters from a lineup that needs more productive hitters and currently our replacements are a guy who can't stay on the field, a guy who has 0.1 WAR since he's decent rookie season four years ago and a couple other guys who can't hit. This is on top of the 3 starters we already have who were in the 8th percentile or worse of xwOBA on contact last year.
  14. Probably 200-250ish.
  15. Baddoo's pedigree is literally having a rookie year where he hit about as well as Collins and has hit like 2025 Joey Ortiz since. That's not a pedigree I want anywhere near starting for my favorite major league team. It's bad enough we have one Joey Ortiz, we certainly don't need another in a corner outfield spot.
  16. I've seen this a lot and don't understand it at all. Do we have good depth? I would argue we have a lot of guys but they're pretty terrible. Frelick and Chourio have spots but after that we have Yelich who is our full time DH and you probably don't want him in the outfield more than like 25 games a year, Mitchell who has cracked 300 plate appearances once in four seasons and has a huge strikeout rate,, the same problem that Hiura had. Then we have Perkins, Lockridge and Baddoo, none of whom can hit and then Bauers, who can kind of hit but you don't really want him full time in the outfield either. Where is this outfield depth that we should be giddy about? I see three terrible hitters, two injury risks and in the spirit of the season, a partridge in a pear tree.
  17. Would have preferred Dweezil.
  18. It's not like the Dodgers are our only competition. We barely got by the Cubs. We would've been underdogs to the Phillies. There has to be a happy medium between going all-in and doing nothing.
  19. "Hey, remember that time we went to the World Series and lost?"
  20. What else is he going to say? This guy sucks and I don't really have any use for him? There's nothing exciting about getting a 28 year old defensive replacement who can't hit no matter how much the manager tries to spin it.
