Some notes from Farhan Zaidi on KNBR earlier this week: -Zaidi said that Heliot Ramos is “definitely on the radar” and “working his way into the picture.” -said that Mason Black will be considered for the open rotation spot

no concussion protocol for Bailey. They think he'll play tomorrow.

I hear he's on a yacht with Lowery...solving cold fusion.

Or there were 17 things they knew/know about Roupp and Black that we don't.

No sarcasm...I didn't realize just how bad he is at the plate.

This game had it all: Mittfuckery -- Chap, Murphy Moundshattery -- Hicks Batdouchery -- Soler, Chap, Yaz A true team effort. And bonus! Bailey is concussed! phuking hell.

Update, Hicks got out of it on 23 pitches. Five and dive is the best we can hope for now. This phuking team.

Probably not. OTOH, probably won't matter as Hicks is about to shit the mound B1

Can admin add a game time of 3:40pm? thanks

Sure, but how many teams have hitters with "30 HR power?" Where is BB9 these days, anyway?

I saw that. Let's hope he really has learned some zone discipline. I'm not a Chappy hater, especially given what we signed him for.

You'd have to know his day to day development at Sac and talk to the pitching coaches. Perhaps he's been working on a grip, mechanics, etc. and they want to see him repeat it before promotion. this assumption that they are idiots gets old. Not saying thats your assumption.

I think you missed my point. It's a four game series with a wraparound game Monday.

Except that Ahmed is playing elite D. Any hitting is a bonus from him. /checks Baseball Reference page. Dude is a phuking TRAIN WRECK at the plate. You're probably right, an OPS+ of 65 can't be sustained, even in the 9 hole.

J Lee (L) CF L Wade Jr. (L) 1B J Soler (R) DH M Conforto (L) LF P Bailey (S) C M Chapman (R) 3B M Yastrzemski (L) RF T Estrada (R) 2B N Ahmed (R) SS Jordan Hicks RHP 2-0, 1.59 ERA, 27 SO I weep for Soler and Chappy vs. Nola.

Not if you watch the ABs...Lee made solid, loud contact all series. Soler hit the ball hard yesterday but has been K'ing a lot....Forto hasn't even been making hard contact.

If they win 2 of 3 that means a game got rained out.

this was my point.

Speaking of league average, here's what the average MLB hitter has done this year: .239 AVG .313 OBP .383 SLG So ... before being disgusted by someone's .230-something batting average, just know that that's normal in 2024.

problem is, any other 3b/SS combo wouldn't be a "lose a little bit" defensively. They need to upgrade the OF. that's the only legit path I see.

I will accept this game. Harry not sharp but hung on for five and dive. Miller looks like he might be a legit piece. With Doval, Tyler, Taylor, Walker, Jackson...thats 6/8 of a bullpen. Lee hit into some bad luck. Soler still strrrrruuuuuggllling. Forto slumping now Chappy didn't K!! Yazbombs...

RanRod up; Jefferies down.

Ok: Give Chapman 650 PAs and he'll K 200 times. Better?

J Lee (L) CF J Soler (R) DH W Flores (R) 1B M Conforto (L) LF P Bailey (S) C M Chapman (R) 3B T Estrada (R) 2B M Yastrzemski (L) RF N Ahmed (R) SS Kyle Harrison LHP 2-1, 4.09 ERA, 31 SO I guess if Harry pitches well I'll be satisfied but this offense SUCKS. I'm losing hope for Soler, Chap, Yaz...

I warned about this before he even signed. He's always been a K machine. Give him enough PAs and he'll K 200 times.
