Vladdy is such a beast.

Apperently Buck thinks Mcguire is playing for the Phillies now.

It's ridiculous that anyone could confuse Hoskins for McGuire.

Everyone knows that Hoskins doesn't have McGuire's stroke.

I was surprised no team took McGuire when he was on waivers.

Didn't like his stroke I guess.....

the kid can pitch just needs to get unwavering confidence in his pitches. but that will come as he gets more starts.

what is kays top end upside a mid to bottom of the rotation guy?

 

[canucksfan]

Kay has been good. He needs to get better at finishing off the hitters sooner.

I think most things I've seen about him paint him as a likely #4 type pitcher. Maybe (unlikely) a #3 if everything breaks right for him or a #5 if he can't fix all his issues.

Charlie to the bullpen early....surprise surprise. Kay can give you at least 1 more inning

 

[as Pure as Evil]

why the hell he thought it was a good reason to use the challenge on that who knows..


i guess only charlie does

I am not sure he is fully stretched out. He threw 79 pitches. That's the most he has thrown this year.

Did Buck just say one of the things you can teach new players in the alternate site is how to put uniforms on?

 

[The Nemesis]

Buck & Pat spend several minutes talking about the value of instructional league and learning in a non-competitive environment where there's no immediate pressure.

Buck by the end of the conversation: "All those alternate methods are good but nothing can replace real competition."

So he's basically arguing against himself?

It's a test. You give them the uniform and if they can put it on successfully it means they're a baseball player.

 

[The Nemesis]

Dang. Gutterball for Rowdy.

 

[lottster14]

Ah, I hope the general opinion isn't that we dislike Buck in this thread. Love him.

Terrible umpiring

Careful there. The law of dramatic sports irony demands that there's at least a 40% chance he comes out tomorrow and spins a 7-inning, 3 hit shutout if we mock him too hard.

Also, Harper and Realmuto might not be in the lineup

 

[Puckstuff]

No Biggio today

 

[The Nemesis]

Today on "MLB umpires are incompetent":

They can't remember what the count is.

 

[Forgotusername]

I like this start.
