They look like the sort of team that could get a player like Bote and also take on a good chunk of Chatwood's contract if it lessened the return... I absolutely include Bote if it meant the Pads would take Chatwood off our hands. I'd even include another lottery ticket prospect. Use the money saved from Chatwood to go get a solid guy for the pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be really great to hit on one of these pitchers this year the way we’ve hit on positional players. Even a Bote/Almora/Happ level player making the main roster in the bullpen could be a major boon for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly think we'd be talking about Alzolay as a solid part of the bullpen to start the year if he hasn't gotten hurt last year. I think he's destined for the pen anyway. Mekkes needs to get a shot as well. I also think someone needs to make a sacrifice to the control/command gods so that Maples can find the strike zone with his fastball.

hrubes20 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 So, this was really effing fun to watch again. Also something that I probably needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hrubes20 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Those comments by Ricketts yesterday have me moving way too close to riot level. I will refrain until Harper/Machado sign with someone, but it's not going in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the "losers" part. Kris Bryant has never played on a big league team that has won fewer than 92 games, nor one that didn't make the playoffs. Where have you been in October since that "loser" bounced your sorry *** from the playoffs in 2015? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it makes you feel any better, Bryant is basically turning Cardinals fans into a more tolerant bunch since they're now just focusing on how hard Hicks throws instead of him not knowing the "Cardinal Way" and needing Bud "definitely-won't-ruin-your-Thanksgiving-dinner" Norris' education on how to be a baseball player anymore.
