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.pjhawks said:Cluffys boy has sucked so far...now that’s he’s in a real league

            Apparently Robertson walked 3 guys in a row once in the last 3 or 4 years. Then he did it again yesterday.0

            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.0 -

At this point why wouldn’t Kimbrell take a one year “show me” deal? Is he willing to sit for the whole season?Jearlpam0925 said: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.

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.0 - 
            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.0

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.The Juggler said:

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.0
