Sports_Freak Posted July 23, 2024 Posted July 23, 2024 Wentz....yeah, it's a throwaway game. Click. Quote
gehringer_2 Posted July 23, 2024 Posted July 23, 2024 You knew once Faedo hit a RHB that he’d not be effective Quote
kdog Posted July 24, 2024 Posted July 24, 2024 Joey Wentz's flat 90 mph fastball against J-Ram....it ended up in Akron. Quote
monkeytargets39 Posted July 24, 2024 Posted July 24, 2024 Everyone is so focused on prospect upgrades from possible deadline deals that we are ignoring the biggest way we can improve the team: replace Faedo and Wentz (and Maeda) with capable relief pitchers. Quote

gehringer_2 Posted July 24, 2024 Posted July 24, 2024 why do you even pitch to Jose once you are behind 2-0? The art of pitching around guys is one thing this team has lost. Quote

Expand I don't think we'd get much for him, at least not in a headline deal. He's barely out of the prospect stage himself, so he doesn't have the track record for that. He could possibly sweeten a Flaherty or (god help us) a Skubal deal, but I don't know if either we nor a buyer would want that. Quote

Expand I don't get the constant drive to swap away every player that starts producing. Isn't the whole point to develop players who produce so you can have them on *your* team?

Expand If we're trading Perez it would have to be like the Paredes for Meadows deal. Trading him for a more established, higher level player. That trade obviously backfired terribly, but that would be the archetype. I don't see that as all that likely. Quote
