Yep. First impression has been a great impression. Really looking forward to this.

No.

He is a weird case, no one has ever had such issues with K/BB at AA and went on to have success in the bigs but no one has ever mashed AA at his age before and not had success in the bigs.

 

BTW, can I just say that I love this place.  Maybe it's just that I have lowered expectations coming from the BN comments section but reasonable discussion and there aren't half-a-dozen folks constantly cherping about the Ricketts being cheap or Theo throwing seasons or Jed sucking and that we need to promote McLeod to GM because he would be awesome.
That's because we exterminated most of those folks. There are a few of us who are not 100% on board with The Plan, but only a small few have the mental capacity and sense of humor (1060Ivy comes to mind) to fight the majority and keep coming back for more. I respect that.

The #poortomricketts people mostly post over at NSBB. I know Kyle does. We're not exactly a group of fan boys holding hands and singing Tomorrow, but we're also not a group of guys that sit around and jerk each other off hoping our negative prognostications come true so we can say "told you so".




Farm System - Butcher - 05-12-2014

I don't know if I've ever seen a quicker bat than Baez. He's ridiculous. And he'll be just fine. More than fine, actually.

This...well, I was told there would be sitting around and plenty of jerking off.

Baez 0-4 again so far tonight with 2 more SOs. You can all choose not to worry, but I will continue to be annoyed and concerned.


Farm System - Coldneck - 05-12-2014

Baez was 0-4 w/ 2 Ks tonight. He is now now in a 3 for 37 slump. He is hitless in 9 of his last 10 games.


Farm System - nakedman1664 - 05-12-2014

Good time for a hit for Baez. Game winning single in the 10th.




Farm System - rok - 05-12-2014

I'll take the credit for lighting a fire under his ass.


Farm System - Auz - 05-12-2014

Bryant went 0 for 4 today. He is shit, trade him.
