damn, that swing dude

 

[Mexi]

Bryce is just wonderful
I want him in blue so bad

That short porch at NYS is scary though

I definitely believe it'll be Dodgers vs Yankees

 

[Big Bid'Ness]

Jeez we get Phil Coke back :/

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Porcello and Stephen Wright have been this team's best pitchers this year...

 

[snipezo]

Stroman's been awful this year.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

You can have price back if you want.

 

[snipezo]

Price will be fine and you should know that. Still has good peripherals and that ERA will stabilize soon.
 
Stroman on the other hand is barely K'ing 5/9ip right now, because he's a stubborn dude who thinks 'pitching to contact' is the most optimal way for a pitcher of his talent to get outs.

 

[Phil The Thrill]

I know. Price's FIP is a little higher than usual and ks/9 are in the sale/kershaw echleon. I'm just praying he opts out in 2018 for obvious reasons.

I've never been in love with Stroman like the rest of the city is. Like you said, doesn't strikeout a ton and his babip right now is sitting pretty low, so this could easily continue. I just don't see him as the ace of the future like the rest of Toronto. Number 2/3 yes.

 

[snipezo]

He's a number 2 that's been pitching like a number 5 starter. I really hope he goes back to striking people out, because thats where he's most effective.

 

[snipezo]

Damn D'arnaud is hurt again. 

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Pedroia has looked great this month. Average is up over .300, k's are low, walks are up, defence is there as usual.
 
If he can be a four win player this year, that'd be huge.

 

[Nonsense]

Shelby Miller and Carlos Martinez got a good ole Pitcher Duel over on FS1

 

[Mexi]

Ive been to 3 marlins dodgers gsmes for sure since about 2011
Maybe 4

But stanton has homered in every one smh. Last year left the freaking stadium which is extremely rare for DS
Today killed Kersh

Id love to have him in Dodger Blue :/

 

[elcheato]

A lot of future Dodgers roaming fields

 

[cruzg24]

Damn D'arnaud is hurt again.

Damn that dude can not stay healthy. Every year he misses significant amount of time.

I thought this was his breakout year, thats why I named my fantasy team d'Arnaud soup 4 you.......

 

[Mexi]

A lot of future Dodgers roaming fields

he wont last his whole career there obviously
Never know

As for bryce, it's up to him
I know the dodgers havent been spending lately on the big club to chase the upcoming classes. He's not the only marquee guy that could be available

 

[A.E]

I really don't think Bryce leaves DC. Its a big enough market and he's doesn't have to share the spotlight with anyone. Washington's ownership is the wealthiest in all of baseball. His contract will shatter every record as we know them.

I completely agree with this statement. He will also have less pressure playing in DC because they expectations arent as high.

 

[Pugz]

but if he does leave dc, i think he'd go out west rather to ny. so imo, its dodgers or nats.

 

[Mexi]

Hes going to hit the open market. Thats for sure
And from there, anything can happen
