    there's so much to unpack from today, so i'll just start listing them. tuesday was devastating for oakland, today was twice as devastating for the yankees.  they had just started to play better.

    The boy and I were at the last ALCS clincher - we were walking on air for days after Altuve’s walkoff. Today, the boy is 5,000 miles and 7 hours away, with no way to watch. So we did a video chat, w

  • Enjoy it. Old Altuve, no more Correa means this is the very end of the road for your tainted dynasty.

Shoutout to the bullpen for doing this before the trade deadline, at least.
Yeah the question is does Click think this will be "fixed" by James and Baez, or is he actually going to go get someone.

I haven’t been as down on Click as many others on this board, but standing pat this week is a fireable offense.
So that wasn’t what I expected to wake up to when I went to bed up 8-3...

Same here. What a wonderful thing to wake up to, buddy on the east coast alerting me to check the score.

My concern is Garcia trending in the wrong direction.  Giving up more runs and HRs as the season progresses. Did he hit a wall?

 

 

 

No he just needs more  experience. He gave up a couple of singles that inning but two big Ks as well. He just can't give up a long ball in that situation to make it a two-run game.

Tough loss but really?

night shift work different. 

in all seriousness, last night is on garcia. staked with a touchdown lead, pretty much flawless thru 3, he couldn’t make it thru the 5th. and sea is a shit offense. 

but yeah, whomever we trade for better pound the zone.

Hard to disagree. Even in the 5th inning Garcia made some really great pitches to get Bauers and Haniger to strike out, and the single to Crawford was a check swing weak hit through the left side of the infield that beat the shift. He gave up a single to Shed Long to start that inning, then just needed to get Seager out. He got up on Seager 0-2 with some dirty changeups, then on 1-2 Maldy called fastball up at the top of the zone and Garcia put it right down the fuckin middle in the heart of the plate. Seager did not miss. 

Tough L v a good team. Bounce back today with a W and win the series tomorrow 

Quote

Ken Davidoff of the New York Post reports that the Mets' agreement with 10th overall pick Kumar Rocker is in limbo due to concerns about his pitching elbow. 

Uh oh. The Mets had an agreement in place for $6 million prior to the physical and apparently something popped up during the exam. For what it's worth, Davidoff says Rocker's camp "disagrees with the concerns." The Mets face a 5 p.m. ET signing deadline on Sunday, so the question now is whether an amended deal can be reached. If the two sides fail to reach an agreement, Rocker could return to Vanderbilt to prove his health while the Mets would receive a makeup pick (11th overall) in the first round next year. Quite a turn from what was expected to be a relatively easy process. 

so oddly familiar.

f the mets, ruining that kid's life

Damn that’s awkward AF while in a series with them 

graveman has been great this season, but montero, not so much.

it's an odd trade if seattle is actually trying to compete this year.

More like pfft 

I think it's a pretty great deal for the Astros

Rumor has it the Mariners club house isn’t happy about loosing Graveman.

Story Sunday from Julia "Toro hasn't seen his family in over a year....they have it planned to meet up in SF on the next road trip"

Whoopsie

Yeah. That was a premature pfft. Thus the edit. 

Speculation is Trea Turner may have been traded somewhere. He got pulled after an IF hit.

I would guess so....pretty dumb trade if you are trying to win, but they trade a FA for someone who has like 4 yrs control.

Ok Rosenthal just tweeted this now:

"Hearing Turner has NOT been traded. Dan’s tweet indicates potential physical issue."

One of the best relievers for the worst?  I think we win this trade. 

????
Yeah i guess the initial tweet I saw on that was trying to reference him recently being DFA by Seattle like 4 days ago

In the short term it's unquestionable. The only possible negative is Toro developing into an All-Star caliber player in our division with four years of club control. Of course, if Graveman helps the Astros win the World Series, it will all be well worth it. 

In light of this trade, how much would you be willing to give up for Kimbrel?

Is there anything you’ve seen from Toro that makes you think that’s possible? We’ve had quite a sample to judge. Even if we lose Correa and move Bregman to SS, there’s no way we would’ve been content with Toro at 3B going into 2022.

I'm good with Presley as our closer. He's been solid. Need more set up and middle relievers. I'd love to get Kimbrel, but wouldn't give too much. 

Looking at Montero's snapshot on Baseball Savant, I think there's a lot there for Strom to work with. He's in the top quarter of pitchers for hard hit % and top twelve % for exit velos. He doesn't get a lot of strikeouts but hitters don't barrel him up much either. He has excellent velocity on his fastball and has a high chase rate. His xERA is 3.73 vs 7.27 actual.

None of the young arms, Hunter Brown, Korey Lee, or Pedro Leon.
