I dunno what's going to happen this offseason. They gotta get rid of Floyd that's their top priority. Insert Sale into the rotation. Unload Quentin and hope for decent haul of young players. Doubt the front office will fire Ozzie tho.

 

Floyd has to be an untouchable right now, as it's very likely he's the only guy in the rotation last year that you can pencil in for 25-30 starts. People don't grasp how awful and fragile our rotation could be next year.

Alexei Ramirez has been s*** for a while now. Funny how we were thinking him and Floyd were gonna have career years cuz they overcame their out of the gate struggles. But in reality they are worse this yr compared to past season.

 

Wouldn't be surprised if Morel and Beckham end up with a higher BA than Ramirez.

It's cause Ozzie is a coward. Still can't believe we let Delmon get away with his antics last season.

I blame the leadership on the bench, not the coach. Not an apologist, just think that has to come from the players. And while I love PK, he is NOT that kind of guy.

Think Danks will be dealt in the off season?

Isn't it the manager's job to call for retaliation?

That's actually still a pretty normal rotation. Rookie or two at the back, not a ton of consistency. The 6+ starters were used too is very abnormal in MLB.

That Ramirez ab was typical took a hanger check swing foul on a pitch inside than fooled on a breaking ball for a weak grounder

 

He's been opening up too quickly for about two months.

Stewart?

 

I'm okay with it being awful though. This team needs to a down year or 3 to rebuild a bit.

 

And that's the rotation of a 5th place team in the AL Central. That's like 4 guys who probably would really struggle to get into the 7th inning.

I believe Buerhle will be back for 10 million/yr, 2 year deal or something. Humber just seems to have run of gas, which is understandable considering how much innings he has pitched, so I am not too concerned with him. I certainly don't want to deal Danks off cuz, we would probably be selling him low, since he's pretty much been a under .500 pitcher with a ~4 era this yr.
