I thought about it the other day… would have been awesome to have moved Vaughn in that deal instead and had Burger at 1B this year. If that wouldn’t work out, you’d have the DH spot where Eloy will be MIA, option declined next year! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 Not very many Campfire Shakes moving at the concession stands, surely... OFC, probably not many at club level to buy them. Have to feel sorry for the vendors on a night like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a vacuum the deal makes sense. The pitcher has more upside. In totality of KW/Hahn it's among the many stupid things they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 I'm not lying I'm pretty sure I could produce some similar exit velos to Fletcher if given a full offseason to focus on hitting again. He makes Madrigal look like Hulk Hogan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 Why do I get the feeling that Shewmake had that early home run and now he is going to have a whole lot of easy fly outs for awhile?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eminor3rd Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 Crochet is going to be really fun to watch this year, if you can manage to separate his performance from a need to see an actual win. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 What are the odds that Grifol will push Crochet another inning and up into the 80's for pitch count? Right now at 68. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In totality of KW/Hahn it's among the many stupid things they did. Before all the injuries...sure. But you actually have to DEVELOP that upside. But you don't draft a hitter that high in the first round without him having 1-2 outstanding tools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wegner Posted April 3, 2024 Share Posted April 3, 2024 5 minutes ago, JUSTgottaBELIEVE said: I know the weather sucks but he’s shutting out the best offense in baseball and making it look easy. If this guy stays healthy I don’t see why he couldn’t put up 2022 Cease numbers or even better with less innings (only because of the expected innings limitation). I gotta wonder if they would consider trading him at the deadline if he has a great 1st half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
