  1. the pistons would absolutely take chet at 5. but he won't be there. imagine chet as robert williams for the celtics, except with the ability to make a basket outside of 2 feet.
  2. bolts not dead yet
  3. the fact that al avila failed at doing something isnt evidence that the "something" isnt a sound strategy.
  4. multiple injuries now for madrigal.
  5. youre the one who said that if the organization cared about the fans they would dfa him, right? lol.
  6. rh high school pitcher? not that high in the draft in front of the best position player prospect in the draft. im in the "build through position players" camp of drafting high when team building. doesnt always work to pass on a pitcher (see verlander, justin), but its a pretty good rule of thumb. pitchers are just too injury prone (see also mize, casey; manning, matt; faedo, alex).
  7. not that high in the draft. too risky.
  8. i bet on the bolts when they were down 2-0 to the rangers. now is the time for the best odds. that said, i dont have the guts to do it this time.
  9. in all the scenarios in all the world, there is nothing as fragile as a high school right handed pitcher. mayer was there for the taking and they doubled down on an 18 hear old's recent ability to spin a baseball and took jobe. it was too risky for me. we'll see how it goes. i hope he's another verlander.
  10. i'm worried about jobe. not because of a small sample size at A ball, but because he's a high school right handed starting pitcher.
  11. yes, but spin rate.
  12. why do you pay attention to bill simmons anymore? my favorite simmons moment was after the celtics made the pierce/garnett trade (you know, the one that built this current team and one of the best trades in nba history) and simmons got so pissed on live tv and almost cried. said the celtics got ripped off. idiot.
  13. with THIS team? good luck.
  14. underachieve with an actually talented team? lol.
  15. lol. bullpen needs some rest. skubal will be ok.
  16. anthony rendon out for the season. as if the javy baez experience waant enough to sour everyone on spending big money for players' decline years.
  17. do we expect riley to be better than tork? maybe a little better? probably not too much better. hopefully he's the next willie mays, but chances are he struggles. regardless, its good to have a reason to actually watch.
  18. leyland could get a job if he wanted it. i mean he's had as much success as a manager as...check notes...aj hinch.
  19. arent you the same guy who wanted to fire dan campbell after 2 games?
  20. austin meadows has a runny nose. lock him up for a week.
  21. sure sure, but is there a right handed high schooler with great spin rate?
  22. that's why we need to trade them bertuzzi in a package that nets their #1 pick next year. they seem to think last year was an aberration and they are actually close to the playoffs.
