    A split is fine - even bad teams win, so the fact we stayed engaged and won the second is outstanding. Lee and Wallner give us two productive young players and we need them. Lopez is okay, but I still want more from him.

    Sorry to see this loss, but eventually even last place teams win in MLB. However a double header sweep is not acceptable. Just glad to have Wallner back.

    I can't slow down (it feels like its Almost Monday) and I don't want to. He is exciting and the biggest prospect we have. If not for injuries I would have seen him AA this year and AAA/MLB next year. Its alright to be excited about prospects. Its also alright be be concerned about injuries. Until something bad happens again I think the train is coming into the station and the ride should be fun.

    Interesting summary, but Lewis is the obvious answer. Just as we used to wait for Buxton, now we are anguishing over the lost of our best bat. No matter how the team goes now, adding Lewis will always make us better.
  5. mikelink45
    His role includes pinch hitting. That is what bench players do.

    What I meant was that if they add somebody and have to cut from the current roster to put that person on the 40 man then those are the two that I would consider first

    Farmer, Margot are the low hanging fruit if we feel the need to trade. This is really fun.

    He has a pitching coach so who is it that makes a decision.

    What a lot of mixed thoughts come out of this. Festa's failure so far has me wondering how we can evaluate minor league performances. I see a lot of prospects coming up on other teams and doing well. Do we need another strategy? I hate seeing Varland struggle and I am delighted by Wallner, but don't know if he has changed enough to succeed again in MLB. It sure feels like he should.
  10. mikelink45
    Those seem like safe predictions - who are the players that might rise and change the formula?
  11. mikelink45
    Did I miss something? There were others willing to sign with us? We were close in dollars for others? We signed the guy who was willing to sign with us. And I am glad he did.
  12. mikelink45
    I am happy with all of them.

    I love it - I do not care about the three true outcomes that are constantly listed. For me it is Strike out, ground our, fly out. Those are the three true outcomes and the last two can at least cause something to happen that is positive.

    Not picking - just enjoying
  15. mikelink45
    If Lewis is out again the game loses the joy that it should generate.
  16. mikelink45
    As I read these summaries I get the impression that our best overall lineup is in Wichita.
  17. mikelink45
    This is not an exciting retrospective and I do not see the Mahle trade in the positive light others do. Don't we do physicals?
  18. mikelink45
    I think Wallner is ready to return - not the other two.
  19. mikelink45
    Good grief - no. Haven't we already proved this is not a good idea. I know we think it is bargaining pricing but add the lost year to the possible good one and the cost is too high. Has anyone added the salaries paid to Mahle, DeSclafini, Dyson, Paddock, Pineda, Topa during their injury years? We could probably sign a good pitcher for the amount spent.
  20. mikelink45
    What a fun victory - is this the beginning of another streak?
  21. mikelink45
    You are right and I do not know what else to say. But Paddock reaching his wall means that we need SWR to continue to produce and hopefully Festa or someone else will be able to pick up the rotation in the 5 spot.
  22. mikelink45
    One more question - the short video clip makes me think the error could have gone to Santana as much as Miranda. Does Santana's reputation protect him?
  23. mikelink45
    His bat in the 10th was the worst decision. This is where you PH even guys who are getting the day off.
  24. mikelink45
    Vazquez defense puts him honorable mention and Farmer wins, although Julien and Kiriloff are vying for Most Disappointing Player. So much expectations and so little performance on the field.
