fathom

Yes, Witt is awesome

Or their defense will fall off a cliff from career norms like Benintendi

Yes, “expected to return as the closer”

Rosenthal reported today that it’s likely

So Crochet is the new closer?

He was excellent defensively in CF at Arkansas

This trade seems way better to me than the Santos one

Truly amazing how far this franchise has fallen in just two years.

I just believe Getz sold Reinsdorf on a vision of reinventing the team as fundamentally strong on defense and getting away from limited sluggers. Problem is the sluggers we had/have never really slugged besides Robert.

They have plenty of outfield options

You just now realized he doesn’t care about power?

I want the Bears to get Caleb, but this is going to be a big story the next two months.

Dodgers have very little pitching depth in the minors now

Kliff to Washington isn’t going to quiet the rumors.

Yep, and not giving young guys a chance to prove they could actually be long term contributors is frustrating. I get they don’t like Colas, but it’s time to let him sink or swim.

With the amount of money they’ve used on crappy veterans with no upside, I would have rather they just use it towards a Montgomery extension.

I bet we see a platoon with Sheets.

He’s absolutely terrible in the outfield

They’re very similar players, and if Madrigal played in the minors his age 25 season, probably would have put up insane numbers. No one disliked his time with the Sox more than Harold and I, but he put up ridiculous defensive numbers last year. I know I posted the YouTube highlights from Ortiz time in the majors last year, and it was shocking how similar their hitting styles were. I don’t particular like the fit for the Brewers with Ortiz, as you’re not getting nearly enough power from 3/4 of your future infield in Turang, Ortiz and Black.

And now we have to worry about if 2022 was actually a fluke. Was hoping that would be another team’s problem.

Way less

He’s connected to the USC program. It was also interesting that Caleb’s dad directed Shane Riordan to their PR guy after denying Caleb didn’t want to play for the Bears to him a few months ago.

Wonder if Brewers trade Williams to Yankees now

Robert Murray today said they’re out

Jerry doesn’t like to pay for pitching, so why wouldn’t he want his FO to focus on getting cheap pitching
