OT: MLB Thread - Part XV: Judge Swings With A Vortex Power Bat

[nyr2k2]

I like 3 of the 4 Mets picks thus far.

Not a big fan of picking college bats unless they're very polished and close, and Brodey is neither.

I like the pick of Dibrell since he's big, athletic, still has projectability and throws four pitches that can all be above-average.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Mets are the worst. So now Conforto is injured. Just what we needed.

Cabrera is injured, but they still refuse to call up Rosario, despite having nothing to prove anymore in AAA. Its like they don't want to win. Probably don't want to call him up because he'll embarrass Cabrera and Reyes, and then Terry won't be able to put his boys in the lineup.

Don't think it's hard to understand: If they are calling Rosario up, it's to have a spot on this team as a starter. If he isn't going to start, he shouldn't be here. Needs to be playing everyday. Play Reyes at SS. Give him the 10 days and if he isn't doing anything, it's time to cut bait.

This should've been the plan in late April. We are getting towards late June.

Yankees loading up on pitchers.. drafted 8 in their first 9 picks.

I like the strategy. Mostly bats available in the IFA market. Load up on arms in the draft.

I think we're ok with bats too...

I'm ok with some overkill.

And I bet every one is a pick above slot.

wheelers got nothing tonight

 

[Machinehead]

Didi so smooth at short

 

[Machinehead]

Why is he bringing Gallegos into a close game?

 

[Cassano]

Girardis. (using aliens meme, sorry on phone)

 

[2Leetch_94]

Did Carter win a gold glove in a previous life and he's using it out on the field?

 

[Machinehead]

****ing Clippard

 

[Cassano]

This is where you'd probably put in Betances. Fk the save stat.

 

[Machinehead]

Does nobody know how to bunt in this league?

I know the stats say it isn't as effective as we used to think but it's still pretty embarrassing watching major leaguers try to do it.

 

[Cassano]

**** off Carter.

 

[Fugazy]

Pretty ****** loss last night for the Yankees. Definitely a winnable game. Just win the series tonight and all will be good.

 

[nyr2k2]

Harvey is ****ing trash.

They should scrap the six man rotation and put HIM in the pen.

 

[nyr2k2]

Harvey still tries to pitch up in the zone but he can't because his stuff is so diminished. That fastball to Rizzo a few years ago would have been 97 and fouled off or swung through. Now it's 92 or 93 and tattooed.

Keep it at six for now. Keeps Wheeler's innings down.

If they go to five, whoever is pitching best between him and Lugo stays in the rotation.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Walker seems to have done his hamstring. Probably between Reynolds and Cecchini for that call up.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Sanchez 3-R HR. Hicks robs someone of a grand slam. Busy first inning tonight.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Harvey is claiming of arm problems. Doesn't seem good. Might force a 5 man rotation, anyway.
