Re: Post Season Thread

I've seen a lot of complaints on facebook baseball pages about problems with the division winners having such a long layoff before playing. To me, the advantage is theirs. Sure there is something to be send for momentum but isn't it better to have your pitching lined up and players to have a couple ...

Re: 2023 Official OBN Predictions Thread

I was very happy to be a loser this year. I had predicted 69 wins and I thought that was being very optimistic. And I thought 661 runs was being generous (especially with Hedges at catcher). Going from 591 runs in 2022 to 692 is a big jump. League average in 2023 was 758, the Bucs were third worst i...

Re: Official Game Thread - 10/1 Bucs vs Marlins

Bednar gets his ERA down to a nice even 2.00 with a nice 39 save total. 76 wins is seven more than I predicted and I thought I was being optimistic.

Re: Official Game Thread - 9/29 - Bucs vs Marlins

right now the Bucs have 8th worst record in baseball.

Oakland, KC and White Sox only teams that won't win at least 71 this season.

Re: Official Game Thread - 9/28 - Bucs @ Phillies

Good to see Hayes getting a rest. Gotta keep him fresh for the season finale. I don't know why Andujar is not being tried at first. He did play 30 some games there at Indy, he has played the most at third in his career. Just seems like first is the best spot for him as he is not much of an outfield...

Re: Extend Keller now

the major league trade rumors site expects free agent to be Jordan Montgomery to get $100 million in his next contract. I don't understand all the ins and outs of this, but is 3 years 45 million enough to get a short deal and still have be a free agent at age 30? Or do you offer 4 years and 65 milli...

Re: Jared Triolo

I wasn't sold on him initially because they had him playing second base a lot. He doesn't have enough range there to be a starter, and when he had Davis in RF behind him, with Joe at 1B after the Santana trade, the right side of the infield was a disaster. However, I would take him over Bae at seco...

Jared Triolo

He was subject to a question on the MLB chat about the Pirates today and this is the writer's assessment (which I hope is incorrect) I think he can potentially bounce around the infield and the OF corners, but I'm not sold with the 27% K rate in AAA and the 29% in the Majors. As soon as the .430 BAB...

Re: Official Game Thread - 9/19 - Bucs @ Cubbies

I see Priester has gotten his ERA back above 9. Hoping he can have a good game before end of the season. Has to be tough on him to get hit like this again.
