Indeed, now it's anyone but the Ducking Fodgers.

It's a lot easier to laugh at with the Yankees and Phillies eliminated.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 13h

Even with a repeat performance, his bat is a net positive and not easily replaced.

He's just jealous his fa deal won't be equal to one year of Soto's deal.

Would've been great if the Phillies could've been out too

Or worse, the Phillies

If that deal gets us 4 guaranteed years of Paul Skenes that is a no brainer, but alvy is tough to swallow. But as i said above, it is unlikely the Pirates would accept a package like that to move him now, if they're considering it at all.

Slashed players mean either/or, not both

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 2d

It's not enough, he hasn't even hit arbitration. It would probably take 6 players: 2 major leaguers, 2 high level prospects and 2 mid level prospects AT LEAST to even make the Pirates think about trading Skenes. Peterson, Vientos, Tong/Sproat, Jett/Reimer, Wenninger/Santucci and Clifford might do it

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 2d

Enjoy the break. Looking forward to the restart after the WS to preview offseason.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 2d

I honestly don't think the Pirates would do it

9/14, my sons birthday, Nolan pitched, Pete extra inning walk off three run homer

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 3d

Stearns said that everything is under consideration when making those decisions. Every player has a negative aspect to them, nobody is perfect. Pete's bat, ability to play and deliver in NY, standing in the community, love of the fans, provide a net positive despite his subpar defense.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 3d

It feels different because he crushed it this year. Pay the man, lock it up during exclusive negotiation window, no game of chicken this time.

I was at that game, drove up from college to go with my grandfather. Amazing day.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

Pete re-signs and everyone wins. The team, Pete, and the fans.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

And Trienen is the Dodgers version of Rynr Stanek. How do you put this guy in to hold a 3 run lead?

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

This was what i heard Jeremy Hefner did well for the pitching staff.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

Kierkering is the Ryne Stanek of the Phillies. Can't wait to hear Connor Thomas howling about that pitching move tomorrow on Locked On MLB Game Night

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

Assuming they want those positions. Odds are the names will be no one you've ever heard of.

Rick @therick112.bsky.social · 4d

And our RISP was meh. But agreed it all starts with the pitching.
