    The Eugenio Suarez thread

    Going to cut the strikeouts way down for sure and ideally get the average up. He’s been a .221 hitter the last 3 years. Definitely a power threat so hopefully he adjusts into the lineup and can reap the benefits of Corbin and Ketel being on base.

    AYTON TRADED!

    I don’t think Book took a shot. He was being honest. DA doesn’t love basketball. He loves what basketball brings him but he doesn’t truly LOVE the game. And look, he’s got a max contract. He’s set for life financially, but until he gets a killer instinct (which is hard to develop) then he will...

    Trail Blazers @ Suns Tuesday game thread, 11-21-2023 - In-Season Tournament #3

    So after a hot start, Ayton slowed down and he and Nurk finished with the same amount of points and Nurk had 4 more rebounds and 4 blocks. I really like what Nurkic can do as a passer while guys cut. He’s looking to make the right play and we’ll need that as team’s force him to be a decision...

    Trail Blazers @ Suns Tuesday game thread, 11-21-2023 - In-Season Tournament #3

    I think this is a game where Book comes out super aggressive. He’s had a couple of off-shooting nights but I think he locks into this matchup, especially with DA on the other side. Would be nice to put together a full 48 minutes especially with the Dubs coming in town tomorrow. Leggo Suns

    Suns updates and discussion for the 2023-24 season

    This is actually a fair point. Book went back to the Kobe’s last night and looked super comfortable. Whenever you have ankle, foot, calf injuries…it’s not entirely the shoes fault but I wonder if he made a conscious decision to switch back

    This Pistons were up at halftime but the Sixers won by 8

    Lakers @ Suns Friday game thread, 11-10-2023 - In-Season Tournament Game #1

    We really miss a PG who can get us into our offensive sets. We’re not wining a series nevertheless a title playing this. Idc if Book plays or not, this isn’t cohesive whatsoever. The attention to detail and effort defensively is lacking. You know what helps an offense, getting out in...

    Suns @ 76ers Saturday game thread, 11-4-2023

    This…just make sure you’re 100 percent Book. Not 75-80-90. Be fulllly healthy otherwise this can nag and then you overcompensate and something else happens.

    Spurs @ Suns Thursday game thread, 11-2-2023

    We need to move the ball. Can’t just watch KD shoot midrange all night. Let’s run some actions. Too many open looks from three. Wake up Suns.

    2023 World Series Game 5 Texas Rangers @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 11/1/23

    Really proud of the fight of the DBacks. I remember watching a game against the Twins where they had 14 hits but lost the game because they couldn’t bring runners home. That proved to be their downfall but what an incredible run through the playoffs. To beat Philly in 6&7 on the road was...

    Spurs @ Suns Tuesday game thread, 10-31-2023

    Book probably won’t be back until next week from what I’ve read. He’s as competitive as they come. We’re not load managing him, he’s genuinely not healthy after rolling his ankle at the end of the GS game.

    World Series Game 1 5 PM Friday

    Tough loss. Arizona definitely has what it takes but they gotta execute late. Can’t leave a high fastball to Seager in that location but it’s Sewald’s first blown save of the postseason. DBacks need to put it behind them and start hot in game 2. Last thing you want is game 1 to bleed into game...

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    That’s fair. I also think Steph’s gravity is still unreal with how he can shoot from anywhere. I’m not seeing him decline, maybe the better word is plateau since it’s hard to get better in your mid 30’s lol. I’m just glad people realize it’s a conversation now.

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    You think Book is better than Steph? I agree Tatum and Booker is a valid argument. I think Tatum is better defensively and more versatile because of his size but Book is a better decision maker and more efficient. 5 would be Joker, Steph, Giannis, Luka, Embiid. I think you can slot Booker...

    Suns @ Warriors Tuesday game thread, 10-24-2023 - SEASON OPENER

    I know Book has had bad elimination performances and when he’s not 100 percent, he’s a different player. But this dude was putting up Jordan numbers in the playoffs. He can most definitely be the #1 and he’s a top 10 player if not talent based, skill and will based for sure. Book is in his...

    NLCS Game #7- Dbacks @ Phillies - 5:07 PM TBS

    I can totally understand that feeling. I had Rangers in 7, Phillies in 6 as predictions but I’m so glad the DBacks fought to make it a game 7. Let it all out on the field and whatever happens, happens

    NLCS Championship Game #4: Phillies @ Dbacks

    Gallen needs to pitch the game of his life tomorrow. This series is a complete toss up. Is Philly the more experienced team with more weapons? Probably. But Arizona is playing their tails off. Confidence has to be building. All the pressure is on the Phillies to get back to the WS. Tomorrow...

    NLCS Championship - Game #3 - $$$ at Arizona - 2:07 PM - TBS

    Bats need to get going early to seize momentum. Really respect the fight of the DBacks. Would be nice if Corbin got going because when he plays well, it seems to enthuse the entire lineup. I think Gallen bounces back at home in game 5 but c’mon Arizona, win this game and keep that mojo!!

    2023 NLCS Game #2 - Dbacks @ Phillies - 5:07 PM - TBS

    It was 1-1 last year. Phillies were up 2-1 and then lost 3 straight. DBacks have to win game 3 and come out with a sense of urgency. Play their game.

    2023 NLCS Game #2 - Dbacks @ Phillies - 5:07 PM - TBS

    Philly is scorching hot. Wish DBacks would settle in but it seems the of the lineup can’t get it going. Walker has been nonexistent.

    2023 MLB Playoffs

    This is gonna be a fun NLCS. If I had to predict, I’d say Philly in 6 but by no means would I be surprised if Arizona stole game 1 or 2. Carroll is going to have to play like he’s been and at least one of Walker/Gurriel/Marte need to supply some power to combat the power of the Phillies...

    2023 Game 3 LA Dodgers @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 10/11/23

    Philly is the harder matchup as it stands. Plus that Philly crowd is electric. But it’s going to be a series. DBacks gotta steal 1/2 and try and keep the momentum at home.

    2023 Game 3 LA Dodgers @ Arizona Diamondbacks. 10/11/23

    1-21 with the only hit being an infield single. Dodgers go as they go. Mookie is 3-37 his last 10 playoff games.

    Suns trade for Beal

    Exactly. I’m from DC. The Wizards haven’t been past the 2nd round in 44 years. I used to go to games growing up with Gilbert Arenas. He was so fun to watch but that’s almost 20 years ago. They had the sweep of Toronto I think 2016 but then lost round 2 to the Celtics I believe. Beal definitely...

    Cleveland Guardians @ Arizona Diamondbacks series thread. 06/16/23-6/18/23

    DBacks back to their winning ways. Carroll is so fun to watch. Gallen is nastyyyyy. Might need to make a trip out there from Texas and catch a game this summer/fall
