But with some of the best command in the majors and a dynamite slider.
-
Why did they pitch to Salvy with an open base? I know the team sucks, but Pedro is killing their development with his decisions.
-
Wish they would have just kept Kopech if his value was so little, as even though he’s a pain in the butt, maybe he would have had a strong start to next season as the closer and then you get more for him at the deadline.
-
I just don’t get how they scouted him and thought “we need this guy, he’s a great fit for our home park”. One thing that is totally evident is Getz doesn’t put an emphasis on “loud tools”….wonder why
-
You’re seeing that the second time facing him, these teams are reading the change up with ease
-
His command needs significant improvement
-
Basically over the last year, they’ve traded the following without getting someone that you can confidently say will be at least an average major leaguer: Cease, Giolito, Lopez, Lynn, Kelly, Bummer, Burger, Santos, Mena, Cease, Fedde, Kopech, Pham, Eloy
-
The headliner of one of the best assets available in the offseason is a number 4-5 starter at best. Why does Getz suck so damn much!
-
Yeah he sucks. What a terrible trade.
-
That fastball is just not playable. Doesn’t have the great movement you see from most guys that throw that soft.
-
Because Jerry despises having to pay young kids so much money
-
Fedde/Pham/$ to STL, Kopech to LAD, Miguel Vargas + prospects to Sox

Flaherty might cost 25 mil next year. Fedde at 7.5 is an amazing steal for the Cardinals. -
Won’t be a wave if they can’t develop guys. Also, Orioles prospects are all hitters, and the Sox look to be pitching heavy. I like Hagen Smith, but I really wish Cags was the pick.
-
Can’t confirm anything, just that the idea of Benintendi being included in trade talks with Crochet was a possibility, and then seemingly confirmed by Boston radio guy. Harold and nitetrain having similar information was just another caveat.
-
16…f*** off Jerry
-
Every player that comes up always has way too big of a swing. The player development is simply pathetic
-
Overmatched
-
My personal favorite was forgetting he had to throw a pitch, and got a violation
-
Holy s%*#, did you know that with two outs and a runner on third, your job as a pitcher isn’t done?
-
Need him to pull a Laroche and just retire.
-
Benintendi absolutely blown away
-
Vaughn swinging at everything made it hard for him to drive the ball.
-
Swing doesn’t look good. Hands coming forward way too much.
-
They also have no one that can throw hard now it seems
-
Good for Elko…but fire everyone, this is ridiculous
