i saw kevin cash said something significant regarding this, if he's making decisions based on feel, it means its a lack of preparation on his/front offices part

what about players in general? I would suspect not

The practical differences between hitters and pitchers are such that yeah, I'd tend to speculate in the same way.

love that the umpire is named randy marsh

What contract do you think Keuchel gets in the offseason?
AvatarKiley McDaniel

If a manager had a British accent would that give them a longer leash on the job?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:18
yes
maybe Joe Maddon will take this on?

Do you think going overseas helped the development of guys like Mikolas and Thames or would they have become this had they stayed with MLB orgs?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:18
Yes, NPB pitching development specifically is different
5:19
different training (lots of pitches at low intensity, cardio), no wasted pitches, more general precision
some guys respond to that better than Triple-A
KBO hitting I know less about

Fine, but Matheny is standing on a backfield watching Royals prospects as we speak, so which do you think is more likely?

TBS has a little chyron saying "Infield Shift is On." Should this be standard?
Eric A Longenhagen

let's ask...

that may have been the wong move by kolten there

RE: Shift is on, there are so many different kinds of shifts I'd rather have a visual of the actual shift as opposed to "the shift is on". Though I assume this refers to the standard extreme grounder-puller shift.
Eric A Longenhagen
5:24
agreed, there are enough different flavors that I just wanna see it

re goldy extension at 5/120 will the decline still give the club any surplus? seems like kelly + weaver value - goldy surplus = bad deal for the red birds. why would a team that seemingly always finds a way to extend their window do such a thing?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:24
I think they thought Kelly/Weaver were soft 5's and Goldy is a rock solid 6
which may not be accurate just one year later?
it makes sense if that's what you thought the outcomes would be

Actually I'm at work & on a client call while on mute and in a deep need for a brew Kiley
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:25
i actually have some brews around, very uncharacteristic for me, and am firing up the grill in the 2nd half of the game
i could go full randy marsh

Are we just going to ignore the fact the Nightengale is wrong like 90% of the time?
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:27
oh come on lets be fair. he isn't wrong 90% of the time. he's a puppet for whomever he's spoken to most recently 72% of the time.

Mikolas looks... not great. Acuna maybe shouldn't have gotten himself thrown out
AvatarKiley McDaniel
5:28
tend to agree that when a pitcher looks to be struggling a bit, don't help them
