July 31, 20197 yr Padres got Trammell. Padres really got the raw end of this deal considering he's been retired for 23 years
July 31, 20197 yr Author Padres really got the raw end of this deal considering he's been retired for 23 years And you all thought Hill was a bad GM.
July 31, 20197 yr Franmil in Cleveland excites me. He was hitting for a lot of power in San Diego and the NL West, now we get to see how he does in more hitter friendly parks. Bauer now has a closer center field fence to chuck a ball over!
July 31, 20197 yr I love these lines from Jason Stark over at the Athletic: The last baseball Trevor Bauer threw for the Indians landed over the center-field fence. And nobody even hit it! The last “hit” by Yasiel Puig for the Reds was a haymaker.
July 31, 20197 yr Padres really got the raw end of this deal considering he's been retired for 23 years At least they traded for a Hall of Famer.

Bauer now has a closer center field fence to chuck a ball over! I get that Dodgers Stadium, Petco Park, and Oracle Park (depending on the time of day) can be hard parks to hit out of, but Coors Field, and Chase Stadium are arguably 2 of the most hitter friendly parks in the majors. My feel is that the AL Central is pretty neutral except for Comerica which is an absolutely massive. Although, he did hit 17 out of Petco, so he can probably hit it out anywhere.
July 31, 20197 yr Padres really got the raw end of this deal considering he's been retired for 23 years At least they did not just trade a lock down reliever whose first act with his new team was to shut down his old team, a future all star staring pitcher, and a future Hall of Famer to be named later for Diaz, a guy who was already in the Marlins system. That would be Marlins level incompetence.

Yes, but he plays 18 to 20 games in those two ballparks that you mentioned a year. Not like he's there every other week. Cleveland is definitely hitter friendly, much more so than Petco, I'd think. Kansas City is large, but again, 9 or 10 games. Comerica, 9 or 10 games. Chicago is fair leaning towards hitter friendly, and Minnesota apparently is hitter friendly now! lol. Depends on the baseballs, too, that's a huge reason for the power spike this year. I hope he wins MVP next year so the media can say "Wow the Padres traded away an MVP!"

August 1, 20197 yr lol today someone said Gallen will win the Cy Young in 2020 I have a feeling that his ERA the rest of the year with the D-Backs will be over 4.00.
