Pitchers tend to bounce pitchers, bats bounce bats




Our awful relief pitchers in the minors shouldn't be keeping Singleton from coming up. You can't tell me right now Enoli Peredes, Blake Taylor and Joel Kuhnel help this franchise win this year more than Singleton would

I'm really not as high on Singleton as some of you are. The guy has always torn up AAA and struggled against better pitching in MLB. The gap between AAA and MLB is very wide.

Sure, give him a shot if the opportunity presents itself. But I would be very pleasantly surprised if the success translated to the next level. I would love to be wrong!

Julks/Montero for JV and one of Pham/Canha

Each team clears off a big money contract. The Mets unload a vet for a younger/ controllable player.

Why would they trade him? Seems like they're trying to buy. Someone in Vegas is smoking something.

Fair and valid but it would hurt absolutely no one to give it a look

Chas

We are DHing a guy w/ a .293 wOBA / .292 xwOBA (bottom 13% of the league)

Why?

This is where Brown needs to upgrade the roster. If we give Chas a day off, then we need someone on the bench who can hit righties. Brantley would be ideal.Go get Brown, Verdugo, Gleybar, Cron, Candelario, etc.


The why is obvious. Dusty has flat-out said the dearth of AA players in MLB is something he's trying to remedy.

Forgot to take the second sentence out. The first part is a reason why.

And trust me, my guess is as good as everyone else's, but the vast majority of pitchers on the staff are very vocal about wanting him to start when they pitch.

Julks checks into the lineup tonight on an 0 for 28 jag

last hit was on July 18th

Wasn't Altuve like 0-34 in the postseason last year? I bet someone on the Astros has gone like 0-40 or 50 at some point. Shoot, Maldy might be that guy lol

Seattle ended their 21 year drought then sold at the next deadline. A Troutless LA team is ahead of them. Never take for granted what we're experiencing.

The all-time record is 0-for-54 by Chris Davis a few years ago. Joey Gallo watched him whiff for the 54th straight hitless at-bat and was like, "Jeez guy, learn the strike zone already."
