Urias is a beast.

13 games 84 IP with 72K's, 2.66 ERA.

I find it remarkable that they keep talking about Mountcastle destroying the Jays. We're not in Toronto, it doesn't work here.

Don't let Babe Belt beat you, Gibby.

I'm sure, was just goofing around a bit.

Sounds about right, yep.

Which of those was the fastest to get back to 29 games?

He made it sound like the IF is too RHB heavy, I wouldn't be shocked to see Cowser or Stowers, though Vavra wouldn't be out of the question, I suppose. I'd think they'll look for an OF type.

You're too nice, he missed a word!

Westburg plays better defense, but they both have low OBP and OPS+. Frazier has a slightly higher slugging. Westburg lost near 100 points in OPS since he's been an every day player for the most part. LHB in the lineup for a guy who isn't going to sit on the bench every day for the rest of the year but has basically been relegated to the bench. Nothing shocking here. RHB have an OPS+ of 87 against Berrios, LHB 113 over his career. This year is 68 OPS+ for RHB and 106 for LHB.

When you have a young rotation full of guys with hardly any IP in their careers, I think it's prudent to err on the side of caution. I don't fault them for babying the starters, if he's even doing that. The issue is we do not have a ton of reliable leverage arms either on the team or in the minors to shuttle up and down. It's basically damned if you do or damned if you don't.

He could probably be an elite closer and an MVP bat.

Correct, see what you quoted, please. The issue is his command. You can and he has all year gotten people out with 92.

He's always gotten outs at that velo. The issue is his command, likely.

Dude last night they gave up like 9 runs in the 8th.

They are playing the Rockies...

If they score 2 more, we might be Fuji Proof.

I'm old enough to remember when he broke down last year and couldn't pitch anymore. I'd like to have him for the playoffs.

Vegas odds are +8000

You got a better chance of getting prickly heat in a Minnesota winter.

Jays did that on purpose to get to Fuji. Schneider is a genius.

Cano was worth 2 wins in May. He's worth 2.7 now, but let's keep pretending he had a minor slump.

PGA tour in Santanders future after retirement.

Richards is a choade.

I love your optimism!
