    And now the geniuses exclaim about Wright: "more than safe to label him a bust".

    Disappointing? Yes, most definitely. Bust? Those measurables will always give hope. I just hope it isn't a team like the Rays or Astros who gets him figured out.

    I didn't label him a bust. I hesitate on any player who has tools but hasn't put it together to call them bust. Draft pedigree or not though, something is missing. I've seen him a lot since we drafted him and there are pitchers who were unknowns who stood out more than Wright. I still think IF he gets it..,it'll be on another team.

    I just laughed to myself about Kevin Pillar being their cleanup, and then he almost jacked one.

    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......

    And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

    Pitchers and light hitting catchers have great success against the braves it seems

    Don't listen to me. I have no idea when soroka will be back, but I'll be surprised if it's this year.

    They talked about that during the pregame show. It was clean with no other damage. Back on track.
