Your vendetta against Gausman is honestly really weird and I don't understand where it's coming from.

Might be the only person on earth that thinks the trade was a mistake. It's not a good take. We gave up relative nobodies and have gotten three wins, a 2 ERA, .96 WHIP, and saved some bullpen and rotation innings. The one bad game he has I'm sure we'll hear about it.

He had a bad game his first start with Atlanta.

And why the moaning about "Im sure we'll hear about it". Why wouldn't I? You lot ping the fuck out of me every time Gausman does something good. HAHAHA ENRON HOW YOU LIKE GAUSMAN NOW every single time. And you keep bringing up me not liking Gausman every chance you get.

You're the one who made this awful stink about losing blocked or shitty guys, not us. You brought on that yourself. You were basically crying about the prospects we lost.

He's tweaked some things since he's been here that have gotten results. Sometimes people just need a change of scenery. Or they need to get out of a loaded division and get better defense behind them.

AA has made some pretty damn good moves, even if all of them (Duvall) haven't worked out to what their stats say they would. I don't think any of those prospects had a future in Atlanta, and having a controllable young starter is way more valuable. Compare what others gave up last year and this for better pitchers and look how it's turned out. I think we did well.

Gausman just has a better defense behind him, and probably a better pitch selection from more analytics. He is still roughly the same pitcher though. 4.05 xFIP with Baltimore. 4.08 xFIP with Atlanta.

If we wanted to, we could flip him for a profit this offseason if management decides our young stable is worth the big league innings. That's why I liked the trade so much. Minimal risk.

Y'all arguing over Gausman makes me feel better about today's games data release later. The arguments there will be petty and weird too, but not as silly as all this.

All end of season collapses have to start somewhere. Ask the Mets fans for tips on how to cope.

The Women's Baseball World Cup started this morning if you need something different to watch. All games are going to be streamed on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/wbsc.

And of course, as I'm typing this, both live games just went into a lightning delay.

holy moly.... this play is going to have a video later.

hard hit ball to third with runners on the corners.
guy on third to far from the bag, and gets in a run down. In the process the guy from first runs to third.
catcher runs guy on third back to third while the guy on third points to the guy that was on first and sends him back to second.
the hitter meanwhile had made it to second, and starts running back to first.
meanwhile the catcher just stands on third watching this.... so the end result was bases loaded and no one out LOL

I hope the Cubs bust out sometime soon. Their offense is painful as hell to watch right now.

For as amazing as Torres can be in the field, he sure does some real boneheaded shit sometimes.

Cubs taking Carl Edwards out of the game and as he's walking into the dugout he slams his mitt down and drops a really loud f-bomb and the broadcast mics picked it up.
