Snit is so freaking terrible, should have had someone up and ready to go as soon as they had to visit the mound about his finger.

Agreed, went up a notch for me tonight. Glad they tossed Urena, could have gotten Padres-Braves level ugly if they didn't.

That he is.

Yep, cost him a steal and the team a run this inning.

Yeah, I'm thinking 2 of Allard, Gohara, and Fried along with Riley would probably be around fair value I think. I'm not the most gigantic Archer fan around, but I'd probably do that trade for the upside. Waters and Pache are pretty much untradeable to me unless we are receiving an OF with long...

No way you can sit him regardless really, maybe if he had like 130 pitches instead of 117 going into the inning.

Not sure why you think Greinke would be available, you made this same post abut him last offseason. Zero chance to think the Dbacks are going to sell, with Goldy going into his last year of his contract and them having a strong team they will be buyers if anything going into next season just as...

He's been -9 DRS in LF this year, and given he's 31 it might be a true decline in defensive skills. Calling him below average at this point could wind up being an understatement. I'd be leery of a long term deal with him because of that defensive drop. Marte if the Pirates go full sell mode...

In addition, AA and Toronto drafted Beede in 2011 at 1-21 and didn't sign him, and then drafted Marcus Stroman in 2012 at 1-22.

On what planet do you live on that we lost out on signing Hess? The only way we could have signed Hess was if Stewart signed way under slot, which obviously he wasn't willing to do. This comment makes zero sense.

The two that he didn't sign besides Singer (who was drafted this year obviously), are Beede and Bickford. And neither of those two pitchers have done squat. Bickford has had a 50 game suspension for banned substances and is a 22 year old still in high A ball. Beede was a barely top 100...

I'd almost prefer that even if he isn't seriously injured. Just not seeing the big deal here. If he's healthy and the Braves want him then cool. If not, we have lots of flexibility and the 9th pick next year.

It's amusing to see everyone freaking out about not signing Carter, it's not like he is some generational talent we are missing out on if he doesn't sign. He was one of the better prospects in a draft class that was seen as lacking top end talent but being fairly deep with solid guys. He's a...

Given what happened this past offseason teams seem to be getting smart and not offering long deals to older players, wouldn't surprise if he would be willing to do a 1 year deal with an option given the current climate. Though obviously someone could get enamored with his career year and give...

I agree that we should wait until the end of the year to make any sort of judgement on Nick, but outside of last year he hasn't really shown himself to be a much better first half hitter. He actually had a .762 OPS on average in the second half versus .728 in the first from 2015-2017. If he can...

Pretty much this, though I don't think she has gotten quite to everyone's ignore list yet, though she'll probably soon join AA as the only person on the board I do have on ignore just because neither provide anything of substance ever. AA, I've been seeing you post since the Fanhome days, and...

Yeah, I was expecting to hear Albies had been bounced as we came back at the bottom of the inning after seeing that discussion.

The last two seasons he usually doesn't have command, which along with his declining velocity is most of the problem with him. It's been pretty simple for him during his career, when he's had a walk rate around 2 per 9 he's had excellent seasons, when he's above 3 he's had bad seasons. This year...

Jobu came through for Dansby.

I think power is the last thing we need to worry about with Riley. As long as he is keeping his average at a decent level then the HRs and doubles will come.
