He should be driving Schwarber back to Iowa. Not done baking.

Since Chuck posted this Schwarber has a 110 wRC+ and 5 dingers. Happ has a 120 wRC+ and 6 dingers. Both are still having some trouble hitting for average but overall I'd say Chuck is fucking wrong.

Happ's K rate is even trending down. But even if they were to get sent down, who would be brought up in their stead?

There was some brave, handsome, bearded fellow making these arguments a few weeks ago but Chuck wanted to throw a hissy fit and stomp his feet and scream DO SOMETHING like his best friend Yellon, so that noble voice was ignored.

That's beyond the pale.

Twenty-nine if you include his AAA DONGS.

As cool as it is that this kid has reached 20 homers after getting called up I'm going to throw out some love for his 1st inning 2-out, 2-strike clean RBI single that earned back 1 of the runs that Quintana had given up right off the bat last night.  Every time this guy goes through a stretch of at-bats where he fans a bunch of times--like he seemed to've recently--I get ready to downgrade my expectations for him and then--*BLAMMO*-- he erupts. 
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.
