    Yet we apparently call people up too quickly.

    It’s in response to the Howie Kendrick injury, I’d guess. That and onset desperation

    We are inducing panic and desperation in the competition.

    Soto this season...
    A (74 PA) = .373/.486/.814 18.9 bb, 17.6 k
    A+ (73 PA) = .371/.466/.790 15.1 bb, 11.0 k
    AA (35 PA) = .323/.400/.581 11.4 bb, 20.0 k

    This kid is killing it this season. No idea how it translates to mlb level, but these numbers are quite impressive

    Between Robles and Soto, GNats have replacements if Harper does dip.

    Harper is looking like Dave Kingman right now.

    ...no he isn't?

    Harper has a .390 OBP despite a terrible BABIP. Given that his batted ball profile is pretty well in line with his career numbers, I'd expect an explosion.

    Not worried about his bat. His defense value (-4.6 according to fangraphs) is on pace to be -16.9. That's Matt kemp level bad

    Watch Soto come up, outproduce Acuña for a month, and this board melt down.

    I am not saying he is bad, but he is not worth a plug nickel right now. He wants that 40 mil a year contract but right now he is at that 15 mil level currently. He better hope he turns it on or he can kiss that fat contract away.

    They were facing Wood - thought I noticed one story mention that they would likely sit him against tough lefties.
    Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...

    Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
