Vazquez is not a backup catcher, he’s a starter, but Maldy is crucial to this pitching staff. He’s definitely a liability in the lineup, but you need him to catch. I don’t know if Click thought this all the way through.

Same podcast...They wanted a veteran catcher to pair with Maldonado. They understand Vasquez is a starter so Maldonado in theory would catch JV and Valdez, Vazquez the others. They want Mancini in LF and 1B. Click also said they couldn't get a CF for what they were willing to part with.

I think (not looking it up) it was lower until maybe Lee's second to last start? Point is, Odorizzi was able to throw 7 shutout innings with a rookie back there. Maldy is not some pitcher whisperer who cannot be replaced.

We were told Strom was irreplaceable, too.

Maybe so, that was a clunker by Stinky in Oakland.

Starling Marte was the guy. Currently hitting a cool .300 witu a .350 OBP and 11 homers. He was the one Marvin, he was the silver tuna.

But they were never giving him a 4-year deal since he'll turn 37 by the end of it. We can complain about that policy but it's not going to change.

Amazing to me we have 3 runs in 2 games against this fricking poo trash pitching staff another reason to be embarrassed.

It's certainly not good.

Urquidy has been dealing lately.

It's going to be tough to decide who the #3 and #4 SPs are come playoff time.

Everybody's telling me how to use this guy and that guy but you can't slight the guys who got us to this point at the same time. Hey man you ever been in the school when the new guy shows up and then all the girls fall for him and everybody's in love with him and then they find out that he might not be as good as they thought he was in the beginning so we'll have to see.


Dusty Baker on his new acquisitions.


I told y'all that interview was really special!

Urquidy with a great start. Maybe the offense won't be trash today.

Altuve is forever swinging at first pitches.

Takes the first one here right down the middle at 89 mph…
