Next time, get someone with actual elite stuff Getz

Hahah, 6-6

90-91 fastball

Let me guess, he’s not fully healthy

You can’t make this up….5 batters, 5 runs

3 batters, 2 runs

Something’s up with Eloy

He’s Kyle Hendricks clone it seems now.

I know the body isn’t even cold yet, but wouldn’t that have been the best since Cease’s 2022 slider? I believe it graded out as best pitch in baseball.

Pretty damn close

The Manny thread where it ends with a Passan tweet about the Padres

Remind you of another thread?

No shot, seems like a lot of the people didn’t like her there

He didn’t

I don’t think it’s a matter of trying to be too pinpoint. He just can’t throw a fastball where he wants to.

Well, he said today he’s still trying to get fully recovered and comfortable from offseason leg surgery. It’s always something with him.

With Bannister overseeing him? As someone said earlier, Bannister literally said he was his biggest area of focus.

He does a lot of things wrong that make me think he will be a terrible reliever. Bad command and not being able to hold runners is a bad combo for a reliever.

Give him a shot at least, and then move him to reliever in May if it’s going bad. If he can be a solid reliever, plenty of time to build some trade value.

Duvall hits for power….that’s a no-no under this regime

Kopech’s issue is his command sucks, followed by losing all shape to his slider. His velocity has been good this spring, but he just can’t command his fastball.

But what’s the rush to react? Are they worried about losing an extra game or two in April if he has a bad start? This team is losing 100 games with him in the rotation or not, might as well give him a shot as a starter.

I really don’t get anything that’s going on right now. The Getz regime is going about as poorly as one would expect. Whole lots of moves have been made, but very little upside acquired.

Not so fast my friend

What he won’t do is spend a lot if attendance blows, and it will be beyond awful the next few years
