    He's probably not worth the asking price, but he is better than Gausman, can we agree on this?

    What about this doozy:

    Huge outing my newk here. With thr way hes throwing you might as well give him another inning. Youre going to have to give him at least days off either way.

    This is where i am, im not paying two top 100's, and a couple other players for him. Dodgers or the Cubs still would beat us in a series, but that's alot to give when i dont think he'd take us over the top.

    A trade i wonder that Ender could have some use for, is Brad Hand. Indians need a guy like him. Still would alot, since he's under control through 2022. But that's a long-term move, i'd like to see AA go for if he could move Ender, and some other pieces, but i think they'd probably want Pache or Waters, and i say no to that.

    How many examples do you need before you recognize the trend?

    You make decisions on players with smaller sample sizes than what I’ve shown about how often you are wrong lol.

    I’d expand that list to at least five other guys and still not feel it’d be worth it. A half season of a guy with mediocre peripherals who’s enormously aided by his home park is just not that enticing, regardless of his name recognition and reputation.

    This would be my offer for Bumgarner, i dont think this would get it done.

    Wilson, Duval, Ender, and Wentz.

    I think we trade for him and end up extenting for 4 years.

    I think it’s clear they haven’t punted on Sean Newcomb, SP yet. If the pen wasn’t total trash to start the year, he’s probably still in the minors working on things. Instead they let him take a shot at being a reliever because they really had no other choice.

    Now if you think that’s a mistake, they haven’t punted on it already, that’s up to your interpretation. But they still see how he’s a tank in his physique and can nom up innings. He won’t just be given a spot, but he’ll be in a competition for the 5th spot and honestly at this point with how Wright is floundering, I'd say he'd be the favorite to win and get one last shot at being a SP.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    Escobar with another two run homer, second of the game. 9-4 arizona now.

    10-4 now as Vargas just homered.

    I think we all know no self evaluation will be happening based upon your consistent wrongness.

    At least you’re not one of the aggressively stupid posters, I’ll give you that.

    He's been almost exactly the same home and away... slightly better on the road

    I think Newk gets a shot in ST next year, but i'd keep Newk in the pen the rest of the year. He's a weapon.
