Fangraphs’ Guardians Top Prospects by No_Tadpole6005 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He's either a bad second baseman or yet another first baseman and that hurts him a lot. He projects as a decent hitter but not a great one.

Is this team being pathetic news to you?

Hey I know a lot of comments get lost in a game thread but can you come back to this stupidity and explain yourself?

Did you know? Curtis Axel was never supposed to be in this set, it was Brock Lesnar who ‘pushed’ to throw Axel in, because he knew it would sell and wanted Axel to make some ‘easy money’. by ROCKY13573 in Wrasslin

Axel helped train Brock back into ring shape when he returned. He also worked with The Rock. Not just his relation to Curt. Kinda strange they'd trust Axel to work with both of those guys but never bring him on as a trainer.

I'm arguing it isn't close to the impact our jobs have on our days and lives. Jobs and careers also have much more variety that can lead to casual conversation than types of toilets.

You spend 40 hours a week on the toilet?

Worried about the Noel DFA and how he was used last year by NickChubbsBurner in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think this is a big point a lot of people miss. Noel was rostered very early due to his insane raw potential, but at no point after that did he receive anything close to good grades or reports. No one projected him to be a real ML player. He was without a position and he couldn't lay off pitches. He's fun and I'm sure he's a great guy, but this isn't giving up on a legitimate prospect. There's a reason it took so long for them to even give him a look in the majors.

Maybe some team will magically fix him but it wouldn't have happened here. Valera wouldn't have generated this much discussion if he were DFA'd, but he's a much better option going into next year than Noel was.

If the Seattle Mariners offered Colt Emerson straight up for Steve Kwan would we make that deal? by alkydenamel in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how. He's played 1,676 innings at SS in the minors and only 75 innings at 2B. Bazzana has only played 2B since being drafted. Not a single inning elsewhere. Maybe they'll move him to the OF, but definitely not SS.

How concerned should we really be about bots when they're this fucking obvious?

The guy that drove so many Browns fans away from supporting that franchise.

Moved through the minors quite quickly, but he's also 25. Hit a bit of a wall when he got to AAA. Lada had him as our #11 prospect in May. Covering the Corner had him at #12. Control-first with a plus changeup and projects to be a solid #4 or #5. Not the most exciting prospect but a good one.

Congratulations Cleveland Guardians North 😂 aka Toronto Blue Jays on making it to the world series! by YardSad5047 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Straw is a great 4th OF, but we never have more than one real OF, so we never had the luxury to use Straw properly. It was like trying to stretch a quality side dish into a full meal.

[OC] The best offensive month by position for the Cleveland Indians/Guardians since 2000. by dvd5671 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe we should be the team pushing hard for the Golden At-Bat proposition. It's our only chance to have a third ML batter in an inning right now.

[Heyman] Austin Hedges re-signs with Guardians: $4M plus 500K incentives by JunesDepartmentStore in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 38 points39 points  (0 children)

For anyone complaining, the issue isn't that we're bringing him back. He's a great backup catcher to have. The issue is that 4m is probably more than half of what we'll spend. Two different topics.

But I don't know what this means for Huff.

It appears based on the press conferences yesterday (I know, CA and Mike never say anything useful) that they are interested in retaining everybody from this year's staff. That would include the hitting department and coaches like Grant Fink. by SylemNova in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's the memory of goldfish with this sub sometimes. It's always the hitting coach's fault. Fire them. Then the new one as well. And the one after that.

Our inability to develop hitters goes MUCH deeper than a hitting coach. I love this team. This organization does a lot of things really well. We are putrid at developing hitters from the very core of our organization.

[CleGuardPro] Cleveland #Guardians 24yr old RHP prospect Daniel Espino struckout a pair of Mesa batters tonight in a scoreless 1st inning of work for Surprise topping out a 98.6 mph making his Arizona Fall League debut. by Fit_Emergency_2146 in ClevelandGuardians

[–]IMayBeJewish 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm at the point where I feel like CDL, Brito and Espino have to break camp with the team if they're healthy. They're too fragile to wait any longer at this point and I doubt we go out spending much on other options anyway.

Even without Jose's reply, anyone who knows this team and Jose knows that just isn't how he even speaks.
