    Nothing in the sport of baseball has been more nailed on.
  2. Hitch
    That's how I read it. Fair play to you..
  3. Hitch
    It really is tiresome. For a board slanted toward the more mature age range, the immaturity is off the scale on times.

    Imagine being one of his ex-teammates hearing that? Flat out refused to help the team. He had every right to be pissed, but to simply have no interest in helping his team because of it - he had to go.
  5. Hitch
    Agreed, and the Sale trade looked fine at the time. The guy wasn't able to stay on the field.
  6. Hitch
    Yeah this, and - we want Bregman to play 2nd base. Stupid, unnecessary, and easily avoided. But after that, it's all Cora and mostly Devers.
  7. Hitch
    For me - Breslow - 40% Devers - 40% Cora - 20% They f***ed up the communication and lied to him. Then Devers threw his toys out of the prams and s*** on his teammates.
  8. Hitch
    Do you have links for this? Can't see anything. If that's true, then the guys is better away from the place. I find it hard to believe. That said, while I am still in disbelief at the trade, I'm also fairly confident Devers was far from being a saint, or even a good teammate for stretches at points this year. The 'culture' comments are clearly barbs aimed at Devers around being a good teammate.
  9. Hitch
    Let's maybe give the guy some time? The one thing we all agreed on before he arrived was that the FO were being bad owners and not giving the team a chance to win. It takes time to build from that.
  10. Hitch
    You really can't. He was left a shitshow.
  11. Hitch
    Real blow for Miami considering they planned to get a haul for him this year.
  12. Hitch
    That is an interesting tidbit. Regardless of anything else, Devers really acted poorly at times these past few months.

    Big win to open this trip after recent events. The offence needs to get going. Without its best hitter...
  14. Hitch
    Weissert is trying to make things exciting for you to keep you up. 😬
  15. Hitch
    That's a fair point. I think if we come home around 500 for the trip that's a success. I just fear that we might come home quite a bit under it. The youngsters might really grasp the nettle and fly with it. But alternatively, there might be a lot of deflation. Time will tell I guess.
  16. Hitch
    This is the worry. I do trust that they now think the team is set for a while (in terms of the youth graduating and us being in a place to go for it) and that they will spend to add to this. Whether they get it right is a whole other matter.
  17. Hitch
    Cotillo and McAdams mentioned a while back that there were players who were not happy with Devers not taking 1st and helping the team and players who were backing Devers. I'd love to know the split on those numbers.
  18. Hitch
    It really feels like it. I cant see anything but a slide back under 500. Would be quite something if it goes the other way, mind you.
  19. Hitch
    These are different points and ones I agree with you on. I do believe they will spend the money, but it will be next year. Which does little to help us this year.
  20. Hitch
    You've also been quick to comment that Cotillo knows little in the past tbf.
  21. Hitch
    People need to give this s*** a rest. It's beyond childish and utterly lacking in facts. The football team is a separate entity that runs off its own financials successes or failures. Money is not sliding over from the Red Sox.
  22. Hitch
    I hear you. I don't disagree with any of this. I did wonder if this precedes a huge deal for a pitcher coming up. But that may well be me just looking for something that isn't there. I do think moving Hicks back the bullpen will see him return to the form before the Giants tried to make him a SP. Not that it makes it too much more palatable.
  23. Hitch
    I'm not so sure. I don't think it's the main reason for sure, but we've seen the Giants strike out on several big name players despite matching the money because they didn't look like a club in a good spot at the time. It's OTT example, but if the A's offer you $320m, and the Padres offer you $300m, you're going to the Padres.
  24. Hitch
    Keith Law is higher on him, and still very high on Harrison. "Rightfielder James Tibbs III was the Giants’ first-round pick last year out of Florida State, and while his minor-league tenure to date hasn’t looked great on paper, he’s had a lot of bad luck on balls in play and is a better player than the stat line implies. He’s hitting .245/.377/.480 in High A this season, walking (16.3 percent) almost as often as he’s striking out (17.9 percent), and the BABIP gods have started shining a little more on him — he’s at .292/.402/.656 with a .300 BABIP over the last month, which is a lot more in-line with what he should be doing at that level."
  25. Hitch
    I mean, some of the logic tracks, some doesn't. I think a lot of people are too angry to think much through logically today - I don't blame them. The timing is absolutely mental. I cannot get my head around that part.
