Glad they signed Darvish over Arrieta.. o wait. :(



At the time it was absolutely the right choice.

they offered Arrieta 120 mil and they tried to negotiate in season. no other teams wanted him and he got less years and less money. I'm shocked he's pitching this well with how much his velocity dipped, walks up, K's down.

What we should've realized is that Yu Darvish is literally a porcelain doll and needs perfect conditions to perform well.


The 120 mil to Arrieta was all a rumor, it’s not true.




Why the fuck is Almora not leading off/starting every damn game? Fucking Joe

its unreal what does the guy need to do in order to play every day. He's proven himself over and over again he isn't a scrub. I don't think this is that hard of a decision I'd sit Heyward down easily if necessary.

Right field is a separate discussion... but Almora should be in center every day next to Schwarbs in left. Let Zobrist, Happ, Heyward fight it out for right field

hmm not a bad idea but are you happy with Russell at short? where has his power disappeared off to? I'm ok with Zobrist playing second here and there and baez at short, happ/heyward platoon in right. at least zobrist and happ have effective at bats heyward is a guaranteed out.

Heyward has been on fire lately. Happ really hasn’t done shit, very streaky. And yeah Addison is pretty much worthless this year. Trading him might be the best option
