I think people are dismissing how hard Manny worked his entire life and without a father figure around to guide him.  From everything I’ve heard about him he busted his backside to get to where he is.

Except its not “we are who we are”.

The Os changed and developed him and realized his career wasn’t over at age 18, 19, 20 or 21..that it’s an evolution of things and different things come at different times..and that development isn’t linear.

I think Gunnar really benefited from that year at the complex.  Working on his skills and swing everyday with less emphasis on in game results.

Achievement unlocked, he ruined his swing just by THINKING about the Home Run Derby. 

That's hilarious. I've seen some post on the Facebook sight asking what's wrong with Gunnar. It absolutely amazes me that as amazing as Gunnar is, that if he goes into a little slump some people will start "wondering what's wrong with him."

Heaney just had his number and Kirby and Gilbert are pretty good starters. 

We all hope he gets out of it soon, but every player slumps.

I think Gunnar should have a day off. No harm no foul, just a day with naught but meditation, a good book, and sleeping in the hot tub.

🛀 can’t hurt , just turn off his mind and float downstream 😌

Apparently Gunnar is, he took the cleats off mid-game.  

I heard that it was because one of the Lego pieces fell off, not because of the strikeouts.

It was the freakin interview...there is no way MLB should allow live interviews while he (or any player) is on the field. The questions were stupid, a couple were asked while the pitcher was in his windup, and it was a long inning...when things are going bad for the team being interviewed, it's time to let it go. Just common sense.

      You must choose a 26-man roster from 26 seasons. Here are the rules. Ignore 2020 Select 13 position players, with 9 starters and 4 bench players Select 13 pitchers, with 5 starters and 8 relievers You can only select one player from each season from 1998-2024 (exclude 2020) You can only select a given player ONCE  Starting pitchers have to be starting pitchers, relievers have to be relievers I will amend rules as appropriate from any suggestions you have. Go.

      Rutschman 2nd half OPS .585 - McCann’s 2nd half OPS .785

      By Just Regular · Posted

      Adley's teams have beaten Witt's teams by about 25 games/season the last 2 years and hopefully can maintain a lead the next 2-3 days. If McCann bats 9th, and Ragans is gone before Batter Faced #27, would the risk of forfeiting the DH be considered if a righty reliever is attacking McCann in a key spot?    Hyde has at least Kjerstad and Holliday on the bench, and maybe one of Mullins or Cowser if Slater starts. I am guessing the roster tomorrow will be 14 bats and 12 arms, so you might have one extra somebody for the team's 36th or 45th plate appearance. One factor against taking the chance...zombie runner is gone so the two teams could have long extra innings for the first time all year.

      Cardinals open to trading Sonny Gray

      Not sure if it’s been shared already, but saw this and thought he would totally make sense as someone to target in the offseason. Cardinals are looking to reduce payroll, though not sure what a reasonable offer looks like for a 35 year old pitcher making 25 million a year for the next two years. A very light free agent class this year. Someone will definitely overpay for Burnes and I hope it’s not the Orioles. Severino, Buehler, Bieber and Max Fried are also intriguing. What say you? https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/09/report-cardinals-open-to-offers-on-sonny-gray.html

      Corbin Burnes 2024

      By Grt 2BA FL Gator · Posted

      I was looking that up too. He was in the bullpen throughout 2018 brewers run. Had a very solid first playoff start in 2021, then a not so good one in 2023 as you posted. Postseason is a different animal, and he’s got some experience, but he’s not proven in the playoffs. Time to make that money Corbin!
