That may be true but if not injured he isn't an 18 year old highschool guy, he played three years in in College anyone would expect him to start playing right away. Would a three years College player go to instructional assignment? We don't have any answers and I would think if a team trades a...
Since he hasn't pitched after being drafted and no stories of him pitching in spring training....is he another Tommy John guy like the Giants have taken on in the past? I am partly kidding about TJ but it seems he would be injured to not have pitched since his draft year. I imagine he must be...
Not even remembering, if posted here, Bart being traded for Austin Strickland can't find any milb info. College stats are pedestrian and hasn't played any in organized ball at least this year. Possibly extended Spring or other type situation. Could he be the Proverbial Injured Pitcher I...
I can't find anything on Austin Strickland (RHP) who we traded him for, I don't recall the trade as I was still having hope for Bart. Can anyone give me an evaluation of the guy we received.
I am fearing we send Heliot out for a flame throwing arm that's is recovering from surgery and Heliot blasts his way in a band box stadium and the pitcher we get never throws an inning even in the minors. Well not necessarily a pitcher but same Idea whomever we get. :tsk:
P.S. Some players...
As was said earlier it's weird that Eugene is now the high A Ball and San Jose is low, where Eugene is very likely to have lots of rain-outs/rain delays and where most of the California teams having dry weather in the summer. Probably a fair amount of shortened games up there. I wonder if more...
I hope this isn't a trend big wins and close losses. After this game run differential will be OK but record not very good. If Conforto and Chapman have big games when facing pitchers having a bad game but not being able to deliver when needed then good stats would be meaningless.
I Know...
Well at least this lineup has some HR/Power up and down the order this year. Not tons of Power, but some pop.
At least shouldn't set high levels of practically only solo HR's the Giants have managed in the past. :tongue:
This has to be the Best Comment of the Year Here on SportsHoopla forum. I officially nominate this for Post of the Year. :pound::thumb::nod::lol::clap::yes::laugh:
84
Although I would have chosen 86 if that hadn't be taken. I think unless the Pitching acquired does really well, the Giants spend part of the season in a WC position but ultimately fall a game or two short. If Young guys like Matos, Bailey(hit well for a catcher), and Luciano or others get on...
Sadly one thing to throw in to the evaluation of Chapman's acquisition is what are the odds for this, bad drafting and bad international signing team of turning those into useful or good/great players. :ohwell::sigh::noidea: I do agree this front office needs as many darts to throw on...
The top 3 have one guy dominating the positive war but even their leftovers outperform the Giants by a wide margin with the next two the Cubbies and Doggies must have a raft of guys getting positive WAR. Just shows how this board has been skeptical of these drafts though the last two haven't had...
Several forum members at another dying forum, have wanted including me, the front office to get an above average CB for about 3 years. The Defense has at least one series where they can't stop the pass to save their lives. With one above average CB the Defense could do some extra things to...
From the early Fumble by CMC the rest of the game felt like a slow motion wreck where a garbage truck in unknowingly on a steep street going for the first trash pick up and finds there is black ice on the road. No stopping it while slowly descending. :sad2::ohwell::brick:
I am thinking Niners can hold on.... or not.... I would just love Purdy (Mr. irrelevant) to win for my favorite team. I Voted for most likely outcome the Chefs Oooops Chiefs win. Oh Well maybe this time in the off-season after waiting for about 4 or 5 years maybe the Niners front office can get...
He made it in this time. Great player short career missed when he left early.
Also when ready someone make one about McCaffery OPOY! Nice day ahead the Big Evening coming up.
