  1. Workman has definitely moved his way up the reliever chain toward the top. He may be there now.
  2. It gets no worse than Monday night, Tyler. Why do we do it to ourselves?
  3. It hasn't been musical chairs. He's been using Barnes as the 'relief ace' consistently. If the 2019 bullpen is bad, that's all on Dombrowski.
  4. We seem to be seeing that classic syndrome of a team 'finding ways to lose'.
  5. The game's never over when you have the two 3-point assassins, Curry and Thompson.
  6. Yep, the only ones who will be pushing any panic buttons are some of the fans.
  7. Can you remember anything of significance Bill Belichick has ever said at a press conference?
  8. Nothing much is going to happen, so just live with it.
  9. Karma-wise, the Warriors losing Durant is payback for the series a few years ago between the Warriors and the Spurs when Kawhi missed virtually the whole series. Plus last year the Warriors got a big break against Houston when Chris Paul missed the last game.
  10. I don't see why this signing indicates Theo is slipping. The Cubs needed bullpen help perhaps more than any other team in baseball. It's not a wacko deal.
  11. Every game is important to a team on the periphery of a Wild Card spot.
  12. The pitching matchup wasn't exactly in our favor either. Rays pitching absolutely snuffed us in this series.
  13. Should be some good comments about today's lineup.
  14. We need a healthy JDM badly for sure.
  15. The LaunchBall approach certainly has a lot to do with that. To evaluate a hitter you only need to look at the slash line and the OPS. Batting average matters, but OBP and SLG do tell you more. They tell you if the guy is getting on base without hits, and they tell you if the guy is hitting for extra bases. J. D. Drew was a classic example of a guy with a mediocre batting overage but an impressive OPS. Because he really did take a lot of walks and he really did have serious power. OPS treated him more fairly.
  16. That's brutal for the kid. I hope he eventually makes it to the bigs.
  17. A career OPS of .884 by a 26 year old doesn't support a projected OPS of .900? I disagree wholeheartedly.
  18. A projection of .900 does not reflect a lot of skewing. He had an .897 in 2016, after all. He's always been .800 or better. He's .840 right now, and we know he's capable of getting hotter than he has been.
  19. You know the numbers that matter, oldtimer. We're 34-31, 6 games back of the Yankees and Rays. And today is another big game. If we win and get a split we'll all be feeling okay about the team. If we lose 3 out of 4 we will not be feeling okay.
  20. The preseason projections for Mookie had him at an OPS of around .900. I assume the projections are based on weighted averages of recent seasons, age et cetera. All the factors that make sense in such a calculation. But it's all guesswork. You know that. We all know it. It's baseball and there is a lot of unpredictable stuff.
  21. With Moreland and Pearce out, it's Chavis at first.
  22. How do you like that, folks? Chavis may actually be one of the bright spots of the day.
