Mikolas may stink, but he gives us length. Long stench.

Mead got us a legit starter...not sure I can argue with the trade, but I do miss him. 

Hard to believe that House is as bad as he is being a 6th year pro.  He's Crews level terrible...or vice versa...

This whole challenge has always rubbed me the wrong way. Why should it be on the players to make sure the umps do their job correctly? Why can’t we just get the stuff they screw up right? It’s so dumb.

Inning should be long over.   It’s time to move CJ to second.

Man when even Young can't make the big plays anymore, it's an omen.

No its time to trade him. And only him. Trading Mead screwed up the entire psyche of the team

I think his ability to hit both lefties and righties let him break up the LHHs string at the top of the order, making for tougher match ups

Well said..

JY has muffed two critical plays in the last couple games that were costly.

Nice to b urn a real reliever because our low lev guys can't avoid major blow ups even in blow outs

Trading CJ is going to fix the psyche issue?

Maybe if Early comes back dealing that will help.

That month they had with Tony Plush, Nick in the 2 hole, and Zim, Dunn and Wilingham as the 3-4-5 was a lot of fun.

The good old days (kinda) when at least we knew we had a competent owner🤦‍♂️

so, but for the Cornholio blow up, it's a 4-3 game. Better to be blown out or agonize over a close one?
