i dont get how anyone ever hits scherzer. he is unreal. the complete package as a pitcher.

What in the world was Pop thinking?

[Nick]

I maintain that Pop is Poop.

i really like our bullpen. should have gone out and gotten a closer but the guys they got have shown to be a really solid group and pretty deep. Bass, Floro, and yimi are all good, curtiss looks like the real deal, if holloways control is legit he is going to be really good, and pop isn't lost enough to where it makes sense to give him back. I cant stand Cimber and Bleier and Detwiler are whatever but our staff as a whole is solid. Just need to get healthy so we can stop trotting a AAA lineup out there.

isan has looked good today. good to see. still have hopes for him to become a quality regular

[fish16]

we're still 17 runs better in terms of run differential than every other team in the division. I really think we have a chance at the division if we can stay afloat in this stretch and not fall out of it before everyone gets back. Anderson should be back Tuesday, Jazz seems like he will be back in the first few days he is eligible. We just need to battle and not completely fall apart while we're banged up.

Pablo and Sandy coming up the first two games of the Diamondbacks series, hopefully we can eek out a series win.

paul campbell just took care of our own issue. Suspended 80 games for roids. Should have taken more, they weren't working.

Osiris Johnson and Lewin Diaz have already homered in minor league play.

Osiris Johnson and Lewin Diaz have already homered in minor league play.

Osiris has apparently looked really good from what people in the organization are saying. Easy to overlook him because I think he like broke his leg or something ridiculous so we haven't seen him since 2018 but he had really good scouting reports from the draft so interested to see what he does this year along with nunez.

Ive always thought lewin has great potential to be a steady power bat in the 5 spot in the lineup so hopefully he can show something this year.

[fish16]

great to see BA back and homering right away. we desperately need him and duvall and cooper to get hot and help carry us for a little.
