[dh_45]

I just skenes doesn't hit anyone with the 100 mph heater

[greekman]

berrios is the odd one out.

[HangTime]

Are check swings going to be reviewable in the future?

[xAIRNESSx]

Are the earrings a new look for Bichette?

Make the offer. Bassitt will reject. Take the compensatory pick, and let Bassitt sign elsewhere. Wish him all the best wherever he pitches next year.

[Boogie!]

Oh well they tried

[JN]

Remember last year when our offence was so **** that we would play Spencer Horwitz at second base. Yikes.

[JN]

33 pitches after 2 innings is an OK number for us. (Pacing to 99 after 6)
Need Skenes out before the start of the seventh.

[Boogie!]

Oh no we **** if

[Randle McMurphy]

That should be enough for the loss against Skenes

I'm not 100% convinced he would turn it down which is why I ask the question. He is 37 at the start of next season.
Remember the contract that a Pivetta got last year about 4/54, and he was much younger (31)
What does Bassitt get -- 2/28 or 2/30 seem realistic. I can't see him getting much more. Is that better than 1/21?

I still offer it though, and if he accepts then he is our 4th/5th starter innings eater.

He might not turn it down but a 1 year deal at that rate for him is fine

[Boogie!]

Barger been cold for a while, barger was a big reason our offense has been great. Need him to turn it back on.

[Boogie!]

Barger swings at ball 4…

[Boogie!]

There we go!!!!!! Come on Guerrero cash one in at least

[xAIRNESSx]

Barger figuring out Skenes

[Madvillainy2004]

115 off the bat is ridiculous lmao
