Glad he saw the resurgence this year. RIP.
. . . and Conger will start throwing baserunners out -- with an urgency and purpose. It all starts tonight.
Yep, he's been pitching well, but he and Lowrie both seem like they're destined to only play half the year every year going forward.
Yes, but King Felix threw 34 pitches in the first inning. This will be an interesting game.
Some team will overpay Kazmir, and I don't think it should be us. He's only a year younger than Feldman, and at the age where his best years are...
This. And Luhnow doesn't need to add another guy who will unnecessarily expose someone to the Rule 5 draft for one month of playing time.
Villar will be a nice insurance policy if we have an injury to one of the infielders. Decent bat, switch hitter, can pinch run, but yes, he's a...
Are you sure that's the rule? I thought as long as a player played on the active roster at any part of this season, he could join the playoff...
I compared Perez to Fields because Fields was sent to the minors not long after Perez was added to the roster. Seems like arguably the team would...
Well, he only faced one batter in two out of his four "good" outings. He's not an upgrade over Fields. As the rosters expand tomorrow, Fields...
Thought Hinch's comments were in response to moving to Tucker to first base this year, when he's had no practice there. Give him an offseason and...
My opinion: Gomez took his spot as our high-paid outfielder. Next year, we'll see Springer, Gomez and a third outfielder (most likely Marisnick...
This could be easily sorted out if Hinch pulls a Buttermaker from Bad News Bears and tells Carter to lean into a fastball. Assuming Carter sees...
Question: not trolling, but I truly don't understand this -- pine tar is sticky and dark colored, isn't it? If Fiers was using pine tar on the...
Marwin at RF. I'd like to see Hinch have Marwin catch a game and pitch a game. Just because.
Wow. Forgot how awkward this roster is for national league crossover games. We basically have four DH/first basemen on the roster, between...
Tucker seems destined to be a DH, imo. Wouldn't be surprised to see another outfielder free agent signing this summer.
Agreed, I think Presley is probably the last outfielder that was protected, and there's a good argument DDJ should have been protected in his...
By "not keeping him," you mean that we decided not to protect him in the Rule 5 draft. I thought it was a good move at the time not to protect...
I just re-read Ortiz's tweet; I guess Straily is starting tonight, if the tweet is accurate. If he does well, will be interesting if they keep...
