July 2019 Game Thread

And as all of this is said, the starting pitching is on a steep downward spiral. Richards, I imagine, has done everything he can to earn a demotion. Alcantara's July numbers are especially brutal. Yamamoto's fortuitous start appears to have been just that. Gallen is walking a batter an inning. And Smith is barely a shadow of his April self. The next couple years could be long ones.

how is it possible that you never learn from your small sample size overreactions on players?

No such thing as a slump, no such thing as a hot streak, no such thing as dealing with an injury, no such thing as playing better competition, no such thing as acclimating to a new level. What you've been for the last two weeks is what you'll be for the rest of your career.

tristan pompey's brother dalton was just DFA'd by the blue jays. i could see us taking a look at him. lot of injuries but former fairly well regarded prospect.

For the love of fuck Gallen has been up for 22.1 innings.

We always knew Yamamoto was a 6th SP, and Richards a 5th/pen arm.

Smith is fine. It's a SSS but he was hurt and has a 3.71 era and 1.24 whip in July. Jesus.

And Sandy has had a rough few starts. This is your only legitimate grip. It's his first full season. 30 more starts and let's panic, and then he probably becomes a good reliever and cool if that happens?

Pablo, Caleb, Gallen, Sandy, and Richards/Urena/Yamamoto is a good young rotation, and Sixto and Neidert are coming June 2020 more than likely, with some of Cabrera, Garret, Rogers, Stewart, Dugger, etc. June 2021.

The next couple of years aren't going to be a problem because of this absent injuries. They are getting some arms out of this.

Exactly!! Most of our pitchers are reaching carrer highs in innings so they are tired, learning the league etc. Let's give them more time before we judge them.

is it me or has every single harold ramirez home run this year been to the opposite field?

I would take a look at him and DFA Puello. LHB and maybe play CF?

Pretty obvious but teams are calling offering very nice pieces for Caleb and Miami is like how about Richards for that. Miami is open to moving Dr K but only for certain things

Such as?

I dont know anything so cant say.

Lets just say stuff offered/mentioned hasn't been close

We need teams like Toronto/Arizona/Detroit to figure out what they are doing first

Was this for Lee?

But seriously, yea he's it if he's healthy.

You missed the gigantic dose of sarcasm in my post.

So Jarlin Garcia has the active consecutive scoreless inning streak in the majors. 17 innings. Marlins all-time record as a lefty reliever too. 31st in FIP of all MLB relievers with over 20 innings thrown. Of course SSS for all relievers, but that's pretty fun.

Anderson is 13th and Brice 79th. Everyone else but Romo stinks.

Somebody gonna bring up that Lee quote from yesterday again?
