They need to work with the rest of the BSN teams and start up their own broadcast network. That way they can invest in their own teams and not share profits with a 100 other teams on a bankrupt network.
Unless your names Ohtani most pinch hitters aren't as good because it's the first time seeing the pitcher (sometimes very first time). So it's not uncommon to have lower than average OPS and averages.
It seems likely to replace Larnach or Margot with Wallner soon. Larnach hasn't been as effective at outfield (or at bat lately) and neither has Margot (a number of missed catches and runs scored).
I say deal theilbar, kepler, farmer and possibly Vasquez. Maybe package a few for decent arms. Recall Wallner to replace kepler in OF, and lee in place of farmer/Castro at 2nd.
It all comes back to the money situation. Like the Minnesota timberwolves just suggested about creating their own network for revenue, the rest of MN teams currently with BSN should also (like the Yes network in NY). That way they can make more money that doesn't get divided within a bankrupt BSN.
Thes best thing for the current MN teams who are a part of Bally Sports north is to create their own network like YES for NY teams. That way they can generate more revenue to keep players around and add more veteran players.
They obviously worked on their swings for this last game against the Rockies. Less power and more contact to get the ball in play. It's why the Royals are doing so well. Get on base and steal as much as possible.
They should trade for younger more aggressive players. Or just utilize the players they got and effectively fire sale the other underporforming veteran players to keep the younger talent they already have. Look to the future since this season doesn't have much promise.
Julien showed his potential last season even hitting one of the few home runs not by Lewis or Polanco in the postseason. He's lost his aggressiveness at the plate on pitches in the zone, either late or strikeouts looking. If he gets back on track he should immediately be promoted though. He's too good to be where he's at now.
