  1. I can’t imagine after Wink’s experience, them not doing anything for Seabold.
  2. I'm not all that optimistic about Hill, either, but I would not write him off. He could become a key pen piece down the stretch and maybe allow us to pool our resources to get one solid RP'er rather than 2 decent ones. (Wink might be able to do that, too.)
  3. Hey, look on the bright side: we shut out the Yanks for 2 innings, tonight!
  4. The first 12th of his contract has been a very big disappointment. If it wasn't for the RBI total, we'd be talking about CC, Pablo & Story in the same breath.
  5. Getting awfully tired of watching solo blasts followed by the same guy making outs with men on base. Players going 3 for 4, and the one out was the time we really needed an out. It's just one game, but this is becoming a pattern.
  6. I've been touch'n'go on that thread. A lot of times I join it near the end of the game, after I have caught up on tape delay. I have noticed some winning games, the threads are just 2-3 pages long.
  7. Yes, I thought about that after I clicked "submit," but I think there is reason for optimism on both fronts.
  8. It's like Swi and Stork only coming out after losing streaks. Now that I mention it, where are they?
  9. He may be replaced at the deadline.
  10. Having a lot of players on the IL is rarely exciting, but in our situation, there does seem to be a significant amount of optimistic anticipation about the future of our 26 man roster, this summer (and some improvement in ML ready AAA players, as some decent players will have to be demoted.) Sale Wacha Eovaldi Whitlock Hill Danish Barnes Paxton Kike It's like we are trading for these guys without giving up anything.
  11. Apparently, his lack of comprehension goes beyond just reading and simple logic.
  12. I'm thinking there is less pressure when we are down 5-0, early.
  13. Why does it seem like the pen does much better in games where the starter sucks?
  14. I remember, yes, but back then, I didn't pay much attention to who was who. I just responded to posts. Maybe that was a better way to do it.
  15. Agreed. There is room for both on the budget, but it would cut into Bloom's ability to fill out the rest of the roster, which will have some big holes in need of filling. I doubt he fields a team with Judge in RF, but Downs/Arroyo at 2B or SS (wherever Story does not play), Casas./Cordero/Dalbec at 1B and some combination of Wink, Seabold, Bello or Crawford in the rotation replacing 2 or 3 of Nate, Wacha & Hill. IMO, if we extend Devers, this winter, we will spread out the rest of the winter spending budget to build a more deeper team, instead of a top heavy one. Just my opinion.
  16. As much as I find JD annoying and trollish, I'm not sure he's done anything worse than some Sox posters, but I'm not aware of his past incarnations and transgressions. Speaking of Skeeters, the Sugar Land Skeeters changed their name to the Space Cowboys.
  17. With Sale and Nate about to be activated, I think Bello gets sent down, for now. His next ML experience may be as a RP'er. For now, I think Wink and Seabold might be ahead of Bello on the rotation depth chart.
  18. Exactly, but even after you put him on ignore, he apparently still goes on and on.
  19. I'm not sure we go large and long on any 1Bman, this winter, due to Casas being in the system and ML ready, once he returns from the IL and gets some rehab work. Abreu might sign for 1 year, but probably not.
  20. Agreed, and it sure was nice watching the best 2 man combination of the decade, but it's not the only way to win it all, and I don't think Bloom's philosophy is to put all your eggs in 2 baskets.
  21. I’d rather they sign him than both Bogey and JD combined, but I’m not sure hi fits into Bloom’s priorities. Sorry for the non answer, but I have no idea. If I had to guess, I’d say no.
