Put JR, TLR, KW and RH on the banner.

Promote this young savage!

About time.

Lol @ he has "afforded himself some leeway". HTF does he figure? Dude is skating on the thinnest possible ice. He's got a foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel. Better get it together quick. Once Lynn comes back, DK should be gone or relegated to mop up duty in blowouts.

Jack, he was just at 900 OPS like a week ago. He's had a cold stretch for a week, come on. He's still a prime savage.

I highly doubt they will extend him given aging curves at the end of the deal and Montgomery coming up. If it looks like Montgomery can't stick at SS then maybe, although even that would prolly be a moderate deal since they currently have alot of leverage.

Nice! Good to see this young savage raking.

You can't stop this savage, you can only hope to contain him. Boom

This young savage has been hitting very well recently.

I thought Colas was supposed to be back this weekend?

When Lynn comes back and the bats become even semi competent we should be lights out.

He was Plan D. They weren't going to pay real money for a good 2B and Miller wanted a guaranteed 2nd year so that wasn't happening either. They prolly also thought they had "leverage" with some of these FAs due to Leury. Lol At least we won

Colas?

That's pretty generous. An F- would be more accurate.

And? Blowing their wad on relievers and scrubs when everyone could see they had major issues against RHP and also had a real need to replace Rodon and a real 2B was their choice. The old man listened to the wrong person and now we are paying the price. I'm not going to get rid of our high end guys just because we spent stupidly when everyone was screaming at the organization that they were spending stupidly. Fucking Ray Charles could see this train wreck coming. So why should we make radical moves to try and save it. If you put your dick in a blender you don't have the right to scream when someone presses the On button. Sink or swim. I'm not sacrificing Giolito, Lynn, Robert, Jimenez, Moncada, Anderson, Kopech, Cease, Vaughn or young savages in the minors. The answer is no. Fight thru it. IDGAF that it's hard to swim when there's an anvil wrapped around their neck. Figure it out. If it burns, it burns.

I'm not interested in trading any of the present core either. That they had poor resource allocation and didn't address their actual needs isn't good cause to start shipping out key personnel like Giolito, Lynn etc. They need to dig themselves out of the hole on their own. If they drown, they drown. Maybe burning a whole year of the window in his old age will cause JR to see putting his trust in a washed up loser with prehistoric baseball beliefs was a bad idea.

No. They need to sleep in the bed they made. I'm unwilling to sacrifice anymore future assets.

Absolutely. What are they waiting for? Haven't they already gotten the extra year of service time?

Velasquez solid outing so far. Some run support would be nice.

It's also been much more exciting than the dumpster fire MLB team.

That would be a very good ROI for a 2 million investment. Give him a month in AAA and bring him up. Then sentence Harrison to Siberia and profit.

I'm irritated that FG has him at a 45. Dude is a savage at the plate and has a big arm in RF.

Why can't he play 2B?

Colas adds a double to his earlier HR. 3-4.

Savage!
