Don't you know that the only thing this team has done to improve is Yasmani Grandal? Nothing else is changing for 2020. Don't you get it? Sheesh...

what an oddball comment.
so you see it as players already on the team and hopefully getting better means they have improved themselves?
you're still clueless richig.

Yaztangibles is gonna raise each player on the team's batting average .030 points. He'll hit .237 though.

In lieu of being overly passive en route to an MLB-high 217 strikeouts in 2018, Moncada established an approach that worked for him and cut his strikeout rate down from 33.4 percent to 27.5 percent. It would have sunk even lower had he not lost control in May (34.4 K%) and August (42.1 K%).

Uh oh........looks like our board's Mr. Positive found an interestingly negative stat by focusing on and perhaps overly highlighting a bit Moncada's K rate for August. It's of course quite possible he missed the fact that it was also the month when Yoan missed most of his games and was returning from injury. Otherwise I'm sure my good buddy would have pointed out that his K rate when fully healthy in September was a much more reasonable 22.3%.
Or should I state it as 22.3 K%

He had an owwie?

Well that forgives it.

100% we should have him lead off.

Yeah, a little owwie that only allowed him to play 9 games and have 38 PA that month. Those rascally little owwies.

Sounds good, but remember, that was 38 PA, not 38 SO. Perhaps we can narrow it down to those, which totaled 16.

Deal...as long as we can have the announcers say "Next up: The Mitchell Trubisky of leadoff men...YOANNNNN MONCAAAADDAAAAAA!"

Nope, no deal. Moncada is our best player, unlike the Bears' Trubisky. Now if you want to say, "Next up: The Zach Levine of leadoff men...YOANNNNN MONCAAAADDAAAAAA!", then we'd have an agreement!!!

Poor Bulls...I'm so apathetic about them at this point that I can't bother to post about their sh*ttiness. I gave it the ol' college try when I went to see them in December in Miami...Then some asshole named Tyler Herro pissed in my Cheerios.

The Bulls are indeed shitty, but at least Levine is the real deal. It's a start.
