Yep. Was just thinking that as Kevin Brown keeps bloviating about Irvin's stats

I'm just following on Gameday--sorry if I'm echoing KBloviations.

Irvin is throwing so many curveballs that his arm is going to sleep submerged in ice tonight if it doesn't fall off.

They call him Swervin' Cole Irvin for a reason.

But I thought our problem was that we couldn't hit mediocre pitchers.

At least that's what I'm always hearing in the game thread.

We can't hit bad pitchers.   We can't hit good pitchers.   I guess we must be one of the lowest scoring teams in baseball.

One would think some of these guys have never watched a baseball game before.

I cannot emphasize how much—while listening to the Reds broadcast—I feel like a North Korean watching an American complaining about his flight being delayed. You have no idea how good you have it.

Not only that, but this American is gonna ask to speak to management too.  And then relay the whole story very loudly to someone on the other end of their cell phone.

I have to admit, I didn’t see this in him. He’s looking awesome like he wants to go the distance tonight.

Honestly, he's looking like he doesn't want to be removed from the rotation

    • Trading Holliday could bring back just a number of good players from a number of selling teams.  As an example, if the Padres made Dylan Cease available and they wanted Holliday (though I doubt they would since they have no openings up the middle), the Padres would have to give up more than Cease I think.  It would cost them another player or two. But trading Holliday is silly.  Much better to trade Stowers, Norby and/or maybe Kjerstad, though I feel Elias will instead try to trade further down the prospect order.  
    • Trout to the Orioles doesn't make much sense but Trout to the Phillies does.  They need outfield help pretty badly and it's his hometown team.  
    • Grayson must really be disappointing people on this board. He specifically said he wasn’t hurting strikeouts and was good with early contact to keep the pitch count down. There are many on this board that claim this doesn’t work and strikeouts don’t up pitch counts despite what guys like Palmer say. The defense is that the data doesn’t support Palmer.  This is a data driven org and Grayson is saying this, the odds are very strong that it’s coming from the org and not Grayson just freestyling.       
    • Well, we already have Gunnar for 5 more years and Adley for 4.  So extending them is important but not going to negatively affect 2025.   I'd love to lock them up long term.  We can afford to do that and sign Soto.  That said, I'd only try to sign Soto if we have to trade our entire prospect roster.   I don't know if the Yankees can really afford to break the bank on Soto.  Even their money is finite and theyre already in the 4th tier AND they are paying the 3-year penalty.  They would be paying something crazy like 95 million a year on a 45 million deal.
    • You did not lose me at Holliday for Webb, But Jaun Soto? do you have any idea the cost, but no extension for Adley Or Gunner? And of course the Yankees would let us outbid them.
    • I guess he doesn’t get a video like Holliday
    • I care a lot less than I did last year when I thought the rest was some big advantage.  Now I would be perfectly fine with the first wild card
