I think you're exactly right we need someone now. And Lux would be great. My vote would be for Friedl of that group - he's a lefty, also hitting...
You completely overlook that the Cassell / Horry crew was 100% able to beat the Jazz in 1994 and 1995. We had their number. Our guards punished...
Him and Guillorme too. The latter looks like we called him up from a 40+ beer league.
Astros have 4 guys with a .700 OPS or better. And 700 is not even good. I'd say minimum one bat needed, maybe two. Weird thing is, if Altuve...
I was hoping for a win but I guess watching a tie in baseball would make some sort of history. Especially since it's unlikely to rain here until...
I remember when we gave credit to Maldonado for all the great game calling he was doing with our starters. Maybe he just had a better PR team...
Tickets are cheap because there's no interest in the A's in Sacramento - not for a team that refuses to acknowledge the city in its name or spend...
I'll be at Wednesday's game. Hoping for the win and the sweep!
That's a lot of assets to give up for a first round pick.
Jake Meyers, #5 hitter. What a world we live in.
He's on pace for a perfectly average season for him, which means 5+ bWar and an All Star appearance. Looking at a career high in SB and more...
If Whitcomb can't make this lineup that's starting Dubon and Rodgers, he's never getting a start again until he goes back to AAA or is traded.
Cam Smith is a natural 3B. He's been impressive in RF, I bet he'd be equally so at the position he's played his whole career. What about him at...
I just think we yada yada the whole hitting thing sometimes like it's a minor skill that isn't part of the equation. His walk rate isn't anything...
"Easily steal 60+" may be hyperbole. One guy got there last year. Five in the past decade. I do like his speed but you can't steal first base....
People fall in love with "tools". Pedro Leon aged out of prospect status and we need a new guy to focus on. He had really good bat-to-ball...
Whitcomb has played 2x as much SS in the minors as any other position. If the Astros aren't going to play him (which seems clear), perhaps...
Urquidy consistently outperformed his FIP. He won more than 60% of his games and ended with an ERA under 4. WHIP always very good thanks to a...
Whitcomb has played pretty much everywhere but 1B, catcher and pitcher. But on a day Walker rests, Diaz could play 1B and Whitcomb could DH. Or,...
I'm fine hitting Altuve 3rd, I'm not fine with him playing every day. He needs a little time off, too, once or twice a week. Even if he's...
