caulfield12 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Cardinals acting like they won the World Series after sweeping a doubleheader after 17 days off. C'mon. Any reasonable manager who knew how to run a bullpen and keep Detwiler available and not knowing the limitations of Evan Marshall's stuff...and how precise he needs to be in executing his tightrope act out there.

Is Moncada slumping or is he hurting? Because a rested Moncada after several games of Goins could be an improvement over a sore Moncada going out there every day.

Of course he's still young and doesn't even have 600 MLB PA. 7 minutes ago, Jack Parkman said: ^^^^^^^^ It's his ~140th MLB game. He's been a better than .820 ops guy in those games. How are you not satisfied? Since you guys are professional evaluators I figured you would've been aware of his terrible defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, I was expecting JD Martinez, or something like .290/.350/.900+ Eloy was never a high walk guy even in the minors. Hell, his best was 10.3% in high A with the Cubs. He was always a high contact, massive power hitter. And he will continue to be that up here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortly he'll post a reply, realize it's shortcomings, edit it and then later apologize for comparing a guy 140 games into his career to a great DH... a day after comparing him to Delmon Young... and shockingly retracting that statement just a few minutes after 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's at least an 875-925 guy in this day and age, but I'd argue 900-950ish. It doesn't matter what we were promised because he hasn't even played a full season of games yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Dallas Keuchel starts are so reminiscent of classic Buehrle ones....the pace is much appreciated. Giolito's on like pitch 75 in the 3rd inning every other time out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
