    Cluffys boy has sucked so far...now that’s he’s in a real league 
    I said when you got him that he loses his control and walks a tightrope. Did not work out today. Has more often than not in the past, including 2 bases loaded no out situations (not necessarily of his doing both times) in the playoffs. He is getting older and has pitched a lot of innings though.

    real league?!? Lol

    Apparently Robertson walked 3 guys in a row once in the last 3 or 4 years. Then he did it again yesterday.

    Tough loss (again). I don't mind Kapler shuffling guys right now, but by like the end of May guys need to know their roles.

    And I wouldn't get irrational and sign Kimbrel to a massive deal unless he wants to do a one-year deal. And I'm certainly not giving up a pick for him. Bullpens, even the best that are paid a premium, are still essentially a coin-flip year-in and year-out.

    I'd much prefer signing Kuechel to a 3-year deal at $20M/yr if he'd take it. I have much less confidence in the rotation. And if you're going to spend nearly $20M I'd much prefer to do that on a starter than a reliever. I want a guy I know I can get 7 innings out of instead of 1. 

    You've got Nola and Arrieta and a bunch of guys. Not that Arrieta is anything great, but no one sticks out in this rotation. Eflin off to a great start, but you can argue that Velasquez, Eikhoff, Eflin, Pivetta should all be duking it out for the 5th spot. Maybe the 4th.

    At this point why wouldn’t Kimbrell take a one year “show me” deal? Is he willing to sit for the whole season?

    What would it take to trade for Bumgarner?

    Too much considering his status there probably.


    Also why I was a bit iffy on the Sixto trade at the time.  Felt like he could be better served for something along these lines.

    relax people. jeez some of you guys are panicking already. there are on a 103 win pace. no need to sign or trade for anyone just yet. plenty of time for that.

    I would think even if Kimbrell sits and costs him a year he'd still get more dollars following this season than doing a one year deal and risking some freak injury. I mean he's not getting a 5 year deal, best he can hope for is 4 years. Biggest thing is I'm guessing teams just don't want to pay the pick for him in addition to the years. I figure he signs after the draft for a 4 year (essentially a 3.5 yr) deal.

    I'm not trading for Bumgarner because I think he'll cost too much, and I'm not even sure you have the prospects the Giants would be remotely interested in to get him . I'd much rather spend the pure cash, instead of getting a rental, plunk Kuechel into the rotation, and be done with it. It's funny because it's such a loooong fucking season and we could be saying "the fuck were we thinking?" in August.

    I dunno, you just can't rely on Pivetta/Eflin/Eikhoff/Velasquez to fill in 3 spots of your rotation. They should be fighting for one spot, at most two.
