THERE IS NO ONE DOWN THE THIRD BASE LINE, #$%#ING BUNT IT YOU BASTARD He has terrible hands and cannot hit the high pitch to save his freaking life. His swing looks like a drunk guy trying to chop down a tree. I actually feel bad for him because I think he's talented. I don't know that there is a player we have had since moving to this park that has been more hindered by playing in SF and then having the league make the pull adjustments defensively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have this weird feeling that we can still be somewhat competitive and have a similarly strong bullpen even without the likes of Smith and Watson and Dyson. I know that's a ton to take out of your roster, and I know it wouldn't be easy...but I really feel like we could do it. this coonrod guy looks very legit. who tf is this guy? lol I feel like with Bochy and this ballpark, we could make this bullpen work with less than what we have now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N4L Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 sometimes I feel bad for belt and then he takes the third strike with a runner on second and two outs and I remember why he pisses me off lol Thats the type of outing from coonrod where you immediately have a ton of confidence and next thing you know you are the 7th inning guy. That stuff is legit. Ball jumps out of his hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Pablo lol. What a miserable game for him before that. Couldn't get the ball in the air to save his life, promptly hits the game winning Homer. Why does Panda magic only work for SF? Also, we are 12 games under .500 if a game is decided by more than one run. 24-10 in one run games lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 If that trade with the Rays really did involve one of their big league infielders like Wendle or Brosseau, I could totally see us making that deal for one of the relievers at this point. You could actually justify it with a "win now" attitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4L Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 We are -40 in run differential but somehow have a winning record. we have a better record than the diamondbacks, who are +61 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its pretty damn amusing, honestly. Honestly, if we still decide to sell off parts, I think that this can only help improve our returns because teams may have to "convince" us to sell off any parts at all. I'd still like to see us move off some players, but I think the idea of trade Bum is all but gone at this point, so I'm content with moving some of the relievers. Give Coonrad a chance at consistent innings...that was just one inning, but damn, it was an impressive one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does give zaidi a lot of leverage. Then you know if we do sell off guys for prospects, they will probably be higher level guys This is the most fun Ive ever had with July baseball, by far. I mean, all the trade talk has really made this fun because it has added a deadline to this whole thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it's the offense that would kind of screw the pooch there. As fun as the team has been, the offense is still just not good lol. we are just in a nice spot of "someone different stepping up every night" right now. The pitching, for the most part, is fine. Not that I'm trusting Beede or Anderson to pitch well late into the season or anything. But the pitching could certainly be a pain for anyone we were to play.
