Westburg with his 16th dinger tonight. 

It's beyond time for him and Cowser.

If he's throwing 103 in the zone I'll take him. If he's at 97 wild then no way

Do we forget how bad of a human he is? And that he basically gave up playing for the Yankees when he wasn’t guaranteed a playoff spot?

Screw Chapman.

It’s crazy how Chapman all of a sudden has his fastball back. He wasn’t close to throwing this hard last year.

Def drastically different from the last few years.

Tony I agree with you about Adley’s approach there but I think the difference of opinion is, Aristotelian’s comment was not some sort of man-up taunt. It was just a way to say, that was a tough ball to block, and your responses were at a way higher temperature. 

I agree on all.

Does anyone know why Adley’s sleeves don’t have the colorful trim?

I think you have to turn the uniform inside out to show the color.

That really is an insane amount of Whif. I'll need to go back and see how he was doing it.

42% swingstr%.  I have never seen a number that high.(for a starter)

Grayson missed 28 bats tonight. That’s an insane number.

I can't wait to look at the pitch repertoire used. Knowing Grayson, how he did it matters because it is AAA after all. AAA hitters can be over powered much easier than MLB hitters. If he was able to do it with significant usage and good command of his slider and change-up for the outing, then that would be a very encouraging sign.

What's the odds of a 1-2-3 ninth?

It doesn't happen.

Would not be the worse three at the end of a game. The game gets shortened. Now, who would I be willing to give up for him as a rental? 

Not anyone in our top 10.

Maybe Prieto?

He also had a wild pitch and gave up a few runs. That seems to be the issue with Grayson, it’s not about how good your good is, it’s about how good your bad is

Very rare.

[Aristotelian]

Bautista has it going all of a sudden. K% is just off the charts this year.

100% I'd move Prieto for him. 

[Sports Guy]

Bautista’s command is on point right now.

He doesn’t need to have great command to be good but when he does, he’s almost unhittable.

[Tony-OH]

When Bautista is hitting the corner of the strike zone its unhittable.
