  1. I feel a little sorry for Nicky. He came and gave us a season that was totally in line with his career numbers and he didn't get hurt every few weeks. This was far more than can be said about most of the people on the 2024 team.
  2. Fair point. It looks better for the Braves using fWAR.
  3. Hey guys, Not a lot of news at the moment, so I figured I would revisit this trade. Number in parentheses is 2024 bWAR. Atlanta Braves (0.6) Aaron Bummer (0.6) Chicago White Sox (1.2) Jared Shuster (1.0) Michael Soroka (0.6) Nicky Lopez (0.2) Braden Shewmake (-0.6) Riley Gowens (-) 145Ks in 122 IP over A+ and AA (he's kind of old though) Hard to overlook Michael Soroka's 0-10 record, but thanks to MLB Trade Rumors, I noticed that his numbers were excellent once he was in the bullpen: IP: 36.0 Ks: 60 BBs: 20 HRs: 3 ERA: 2.75 FIP: 2.75 Conclusion: The trade was a wash.
  4. The dude doesn't have a single multi-hit game for us yet.
  5. I found this strange: The White Sox have allowed 78 fewer runs than the Rockies, but the Rockies have 20 more victories. Hard to fathom how bad our offense is.
  6. Hey man, he's one of the few guys doing exactly what he was paid to do. Terrible bat, decent glove.
  7. We totally fleeced the Cardinals! I can't wait to see the young talent we got from St. Louis develop!
  8. I mean yeah, and since we are 70 games under 500 it obviously doesn't really matter. But Brebbia's FIP is barely worse than it was last year and that was enough for us to spend 4 million or whatever. EDIT: I think he would have received a 250k bonus if he made one more appearance. So the answer is, we are cheap.
  9. Did y'all see that Brebbia also got DFA'd and Prelander Berroa was recalled? Apologies if I missed the post somewhere.
  10. Grady Sizemore's career winning percentage as a Manager is now lower than Pedro Grifol's. Note: I am saying this with tongue in cheek to highlight how people got excited too quick. I got no beef with Grady.
  11. This is quite the take... If we really regret it, a few months from now we can resign Eloy for cheap. Because no one will want him. Cause he's awful.
  12. I feel a 5 homeruns in 5 games kind of streak coming from Luis!
  13. Andrew Benintendi's slugging is now higher than Gavin's. I'm not sure how this is relevant, but just throwing it out there.
  14. It has been 84 days since Eloy hit a homerun.
  15. Eloy hadn't hit a homerun in his previous 36 games. He also can't run or field. Addition by subtraction here.
  16. Yeah, by "we" I meant the organization.
  17. I feel like we'd just be happy to get the rest of his salary of the books.
