He was a late round pick, not my 2nd wife...

Imagine being upset that Adam Frazier is getting a day off.

Excellent. Now he can be completely useless at 2b, instead of Util.

that guy would find something to complain about while on vacation in Tahiti sipping Pina Coladas.

My first thought watching him tonight was he looks like Matthew Lillard. Something to just keep in mind when projecting him for fantasy purposes this season and beyond

This is about the point in the season where prospects' defense suddenly becomes acceptable.

Two months ago you wrote "he’s just a fat exciting name who hits the ball on the ground" which is exactly the type of insinuation of which you speak.

Picture this: it's the year 2098, the world is a nuclear wasteland. Buildings are merely empty crumbling shells. The sky is an orange, purple color, constantly highlighted by dust clouds and frequent lightning. Any tree or plant life is no more. Life has completely ceased to exist. There....under the rubble....an abandoned cellphone powers up just for an instant......an update flashes across the screen: "Kebryan hayes will take swings next week, and should be back shortly after that"

Last chance to buy low on Luis Castillo before you can pick him up off waivers.

He was just dropped in my somewhat shallow 14 teamer. Digging into his FG page to try to figure out what’s going on here. Only good news I see is that he’s not walking guys at any alarming rate. His FIP is also a “not atrocious” 4.76. Unfortunately, the Reds probably aren’t trading for Andrelton Simmons, so the defense is what it is for fantasy purposes. His GB, FB, LD & hard hit rates all look more similar to his 2018, where he was not good, but not this bad. Looking at his pitch mix, he’s throwing that change quite a bit more and the FB & slider less. The SL grades o

I enjoy all overreaction and humor on this board, as the later is rare. If I can't overreact like a lunatic to fantasy baseball, what's the f'n point?!

If you want an actual example of behind-the-woodshed, check out Castillo’s start tonight. The kid looked really impressive - even his line looked good. No walks, one more hit than IP, one more K than IP. He obviously was battling nerves - but got more comfortable as he settled into his outing. They may have waited a tad too long to introduce his secondaries - but giving up two long balls to two of the best sluggers in the game is no cause for shame.

Alright can't wait for some of you guys to be like who the hell is this lol. He first really popped on my radar after his first AAA start this year where he dominated batters with a 5 2/3IP 3H 1ER 2BB 10K line. I was throughly impressed with this kid last night & I think he sticks up in the big league as long as he continues to perform. The 4th / 5th spots in the Marlins rotation have been a huge sore spot. Cody Poteet put up a 36% CSW last night & 16.9 SWSTR% in his first MLB start 5IP 4H 2ER 0BB 6K . (17% SWSTR in his AAA start this year) So who the hell is Cody P

I'm not asking for much, how about a day when my dickless offense hits over .200...

Me and fellow Gilbert and Kelenic owners today...

I laughed out loud when I saw Jarred Kelenic had his own thread on Edge Forums. The guy has officially made it. He is a little skidmark on the fantasy scene. Speaking of skidmarks that is one way of describing his statistical performance this season. Although pile of s*** would probably be more articulate. Probably the worst "hitter" I have ever seen. If I was a teammate of Jarred’s I would treat him hitting the ball out of the infield almost as a walk off HR. Just shower the guy with a ton of high fives in the dugout. The Mariners outfield duo of Mittttttttttttttttttttttch Haniger and He Went

I get everyone’s excited but it’s the Mariners. So...

they meant to type Acuna

Thought I'd throw this out there Biggio April: Biggio May: It looks like he's turning it around to me. Striking out less, walking more, and hitting the ball hard more frequently.

Trusted source; I think this is official enough to get the discussion going. Congrats to those holding.

That's the question we're all asking. At this point I'd probably say Doolittle has the longest road to the job, but I can see a real argument for each of them. If you can hold them, I'd say grab one at random and cross your fingers. The cost is relatively low, but not zero - that roster spot could be going to some other player breaking out on the ww. Maybe you could have grabbed Cease or Rodon while these clowns keep blowing their chance to be closer. Maybe you could have grabbed some other flavor of the week who fizzled out within days. The team clearly wanted Amir to take the job to op

Encouraging...for who exactly? Dr. James Andrews?

What? He threw 147.2 IP in 2017 across 3 minor league levels, 133.1 IP in AA in 2018 and 171.1 IP in 2019 between AAA and MLB. Obviously 2020 was shortened but he didn’t miss a start. Likely headed for TJ now but this is really the first year he’s had injury problems as a pro. He’ll have a spot saved for him in the Arizona rotation whenever he returns, even if it’s 2023.

Bob Nightengale says The early test results on #DBacks ace Zac Gallen’s right elbow are being called ‘encouraging.’ Or, to put it another way: safe drop.

This guy sounds incredible from all the hype... .413 - 62 HR - 157 RBI - 43 SB (also not really...)

Narrator: cutting bait was a biggie

Ok Enjoy hell pal

It’s been pretty well established by people on this forum who know pitching better than me that by some definitions he actually has 4 pitches: FB, 2 sliders (one more like a curve) and a show me change up. So I don’t buy the 2 pitch thing anymore and neither should you. the health thing is a bit different and I kind of agree with you there. I’d probably take a sell high if it fell on my lap for a real ace but unlikely I can swing that.

Huascar Ynoa vs PHI (W) – 6.0 IP, 1 ER, 4 Hits, 1 BBs, 6 Ks – 10 Whiffs, 30% CSW, 92 pitches. THIS JUST IN. Ynoa is still dope. 51% sliders for 45% CSW while his four-seamer sat 97 mph and earned all the outs. There it is, that’s the story and the man can’t be stopped. And now he gets the Brewers and Pirates?! Yessssss. https://www.pitcherlist.com/great-dane/

That crisp single to left field was nice, also threw 6 innings for the win. Huascar!!

Matisse THYbulle>>>>Covington

Damn if he’s that shaken up from getting the vaccine, imagine how much worse it would have been if he actually got Covid lucky man

Castellanos getting a day off, in COORS 😡😡😡

Wait, just realized I'm not in this league.

He's got like five above average pitches. He's the quintessential starting pitcher. Also, he threw a 147 IP in 2017, 133 IP in 2018 and 171 IP in 2019.

He’s started 29 straight games.

There are literally hundreds of thousands of vaccines laying around and we're still going through this nonsense. Gotta love athletes: Untraceable PED invented in a Dominican hotel room: "sign me up!" Totally scrutinized and thoroughly tested FDA-approved vaccine: "man, you don't know what's in that stuff!"

Funny discovery on Yahoo, if you look under Research in the main page you will find their "Closer Depth Chart"; it has not been updated since 2017. Iglesias is still in CIN, Hand is still in CLE, Colome still in for the White Sox, etc., and guys like Yates, LeClerc, Giles and monumental pieces of human garbage Osuna and the former closer in PIT are still listed. Interesting too which names are still in place-Neris, Chapman, Kimbrel, Hader, Diaz, Jansen, Barnes. Didn't really want to post this under Platforms, just thought it would be a funny thing to peek at if anyone is interested.

sounds like your first wife went 2-40

Helen > Brad > Mitch

With all due respect to fbg, predicting pitcher injuries is like predicting rain on an overcast day.

Don’t sleep on this guy. He might be my favorite Royals pitching prospect.

Really liking the production from Lowe and Meadows. Great players.

If Wade Miley throws a perfect game tonight the MLB better start digging through drawers to find some of those old 2019 baseballs to put in play. This is getting ridiculous.
