@editti22 Need an Ohearn in the clubhouse. Alonzo is a similar guy but not sure is effect in the clubhouse. Gunnar was the man in this spot previously

@AmeizSzn @Eddielinks_ The argument is D1. I guarantee 1000s of boys HS basketball players could take her but that’s why men’s and women’s sports are separate. Not a knock on her. See the US Women’s national soccer team vs U15. See Serena Williams and her logical comments on similar statements.

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@Eddielinks_ This just doesn’t compute when using real data from other sports.

Why make this statement? Who cares? Men’s and women’s sports are separate for a reason

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@JasonLaCanfora Only criticize and never praise a move. It’s hard to take you seriously. Same thing with EDC.

@Tiilller @BrickCenter_ Volleyball net is 8 inches shorter for women, and the game is exploding in popularity because its high quality most every play. WNBA can have highlight reel plays followed by plays you wouldn’t see in a local pickup game

@mvpfloorservice Top 3 RISP on the IR, then it’s J Jackson, Pete, Leody, Gunnar

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@DanClarkSports Up to 2018 the only thing we have to show for it is the Ward trade. No promise but GRod. Post 2018, jury is out on most. Rutch 3x all star and wasn’t hurt 1st 3 yrs, Beavers is just getting his feet wet, Holliday turned 22 in Dec. Kj’s injury journey unfortunately.

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@DanClarkSports A bust at 22 when most are working their way through the minors? His injuries including groin have something to do with the late and slow start to the season. He was trending up last season. Stowers was a bust for 2+ years while here and was 5 years older when he figured it out

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@ByMattWeyrich This ranking is not the best for fWAR proponents. Overly weighted towards HRs given up. More reliable than BABIP but not as reliable as it is for fielding and batting.

Most value to the team June and July

Rogers
Young
Baz
Bradish

@cards_first @kbo_coyote @DanClarkSports lol where the F did you pull that out of

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@kbo_coyote @DanClarkSports He wasn’t jumping over, he was doing what every other player was doing besides Call. They said it was probably just a funny bone hit

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@KevinKlimko @ByMattWeyrich What lie? Sammy thought he could go so the team held out hope. The team decided it was better for Sammy to take another week off

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@RobLongSports @JConnSports after a lifetime of watching Sox fans and even attending a few games in Fenway, they attend in mass and stay longer than any fan base when losing, but I think they were also influenced by Scotland fans. Would be curious to see their online chatter

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@tylerbarberis_ All hits have been middle middle pitches. Good Kremer goes 7, bad Kremer gives up at least 5 early

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@tylerbarberis_ Not sure what the big deal is here. Hoping Sammy could get over it. Shoulder pain requires more testing, as more variables. I assume they went through rest, mobility, MRI route

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@FowlBallTalk He said TBD and they aren’t going to share info to AK before they share via official channels. Nothing to see here, didn’t cost them anything to wait and see

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@mromanell @OriolesMagic23 Maybe they can be packaged for a bottom team to fill holes, but losing Adley and Ward would open up 2 more holes (back up or starting catcher because Basallo doesn’t have the stamina or health to be an every day catcher, and would need another right handed outfielder)

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@DanClarkSports It’s easy when you can buy so many FAs preseason and not have to mortgage the farm at the deadline. Their biggest move in 3 years was for a 3rd starter

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@Ronnie2Kaapp @Punchoutpitch @JeffPassan Sammy needs a tag team partner. Whether Adley or someone else, he won’t be behind the plate for more than 1/2 a season max

[Paul Waltrup @pwaltrup]

@jcalvinmeyer Yes but he uses lazy logic. Yes they paid Basallo, but gave him the same per year as they gave backup Sanchez last season
