@MarioS11_@kileymcd@Ken_Rosenthal@JeffPassan The cubs thought they had the league by the balls with wood prior zambrano and clement and how did that turn out. No such thing as too much pitching
@pmahon_5@jitty412 Idk what they did to Skenes but it seems the hitters don’t swing any more on him. Not many chases. And when everyone throws near 100 it’s easy to hit.
Skenes hasn’t been the stopper we thought he would be. His starts are no longer a 90% chance to win
@pmahon_5@jitty412 Gonzales booted a few balls last night. Only got credited for 1 error but it could’ve been 4.
Going in to the season the concern was team defense and last night showed it. When it’s not good it’s bad. Then to combo the poor defense with a bad 8th not even 9 runs could save them
@DTonPirates What do you think is up with Santana, how did he fall so far. I understand he was never a blow it by you guy. But last year he was nearly lights out. The entire month of May he got crushed and now June he’s getting rocked
Again Santana HAS to go on the IL. He needs 2 weeks off to figure out wtf he’s doing wrong. He’s been their worst RP for a month and that says a lot with sanders Lawrence and Ramirez out there
@ProdPGH27@DonChed54@Chandler_Rome@937theFan No arguments on how good he is, I’m saying Soto with his age and contract is going to garner a much higher price. No knock on Yordan he’s just older and only under contract til 28
@ProdPGH27@DonChed54@Chandler_Rome@937theFan Soto was 23 when he got traded tho. Alvarez is 6 years older. No doubt one of Seth/florentino has to go but it won’t be nearly the same package
@MattWallac93949@AustinRBechtold He has 70 pitches, not like he’s straining to get outs. But I do agree, if he truly does have an innings limit this has to be the last one
@roddrickheffley@orsonhitchcock@pmahon_5 He was good, actually great in his 17 innings. I was replying to you saying he’d only throw 50 innings. If he’s good he’s gonna throw closer to 80 innings
