Not our night. I just wish this team could put a long streak together, but I just don't think we have the players to do it.

This was evident months ago... I keep hoping for it, too, but it isn't going to happen, Roy.

I see the posts about Tillman's stuff being poor tonight, but I certainly don't see it. His stuff looks really good to me. His command is what is killing him IMO.

Part of the griping comes from the hope that the stuff would overcome part of the control problems.

So, I know everyone is all over Tillman that inning, but he really didn't do anything wrong. No runs should have scored. The ball dropped by Reimold was an error regardless of what it was called. Jackson had a nice piece of hitting and hit a solid single.

Agree 100%. First inning is on Tillman (with some help from the ump). Second inning is on Reimold, period.

      Brandon Young 2024

      By Just Regular · Posted

      BP profiled him today: Brandon Young, RHP, Baltimore Orioles Listed Height: 6-foot-6 Listed Weight: 210 pounds DOB (Age): August 19, 1998 (25) Pitch Velo Spin IVB HB Total % Whiff% 4-Seam Fastball 93.5 2124 18.0 -4.8 131 48.7 31.8 Changeup 85.5 1730 9.8 -13.3 64 23.8 22.9 Curveball 75.7 2723 -14.4 11.5 34 12.6 40.0 Slider 85.4 2048 5.4 5.5 26 9.7 12.5 Sweeper 79.5 2084 1.7 11.5 14 5.2 11.1 Injuries limited Young to just 53 1/3 innings between 2022 and 2023. Upon return to action last year, he flashed increased velocity. That velocity bump has carried over to 2024. Now, Young’s fastball has borderline-average velocity (previously below-average) but above-average carry and extension (6.6 feet). It is further aided by strong command. After his fastball, which is by no means a world beater, Young has a smattering of average secondaries. He primarily relies on a changeup–really his only secondary with above-average potential–that has solid velocity (8 mph), vertical movement (8+ inches), and horizontal movement (8+ inches) separation from his fastball. Both his breaking balls either lack enough power (curveball) or depth (slider/cutter) to be viable putaway pitches at the MLB level. His seldomly-used sweeper has potential, but it has had little success so far. Young adds to the depth of the deepest system in baseball, yet he very well may just be that–depth–likely without an above-average offering. Of course, he could become a viable fantasy arm even with mediocre stuff due to his command and control.

      You would theoretically make more money over time by best serving your employers.

      If I sell someone a house, I don’t advise them to buy the most expensive house because that means more money for me. I get to know the client, understand what’s important for them and advise them based off of that. That’s how you should always handle a job like that imo. Your wallet should not be part of the equation.

      Kyle Stowers 2024

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      This goes back to a discussion I had before.     Since Stowers likely doesn’t have great trade value, do you keep him and trade Kjerstad instead?  Even if you think HK is better, can he get you a way better player and Stowers give you 80-90% of what HK can give you? It’s possible you have room for both too.  Just saying if you decide to trade an OFer, maybe this is the smart way to go?

      What I thought was best for my client. Which would depend on what my client has told me he wants. If he wants to maximize earnings I tell him to test free agency.
