burning an option on Fulmer last year was incredibly stupid.

.....but not as questionable as drafting him with the 8th pick with Ian Happ still on the board.

So Carson Fulmer....yeah, he stinks.

Yep, but even orgs with better scouts won't always get it right. How about having the #1 pick and selecting Mark Appel over Kris Bryant. OUCH!!!!

Cubs passed up Conforto and Trea Turner to draft a DH in 14

I don't care what Rick Renteria says Carson Fulmer is a bust. It doesn't seem to make a difference to Fulmer where he locates his pitches. Stupidity seems to be his legacy. And he seems to have no "out pitch"

I'm pleased with LuGi's (can't call him Gio)first start. I saw his first start for the Nats last year, and the difference was very substantial. He needs to learn to not groove it as much. He lasted 6 innings, no walks and under 100 pitches.

Color me in on the JuanP-LuGi bandwagon.   I foresee a slightly-above-average middle-of-the-rotation guy.

Lots of comparisons to Floyd, if he can become a middle rotation guy like Pink I would be happy.

Typically Rosario is pretty accurate, I thought he was going to be toast at home

Hate to see us win, but taking 3 of 5 from the Twins feels soooooo good. Hope Moncada is ok.

They said it was a flare up of the shin splints he suffers from. They took him out of the game as a precaution (I presume).

OK, sounds like nothing to worry about. Good.
