  1. I'm there with you, but I never thought they were dealing him this off season, even if I would have.
  2. To be clear, you aren't awful! I just don't think we every know what's going on in these player's minds, and I'll never question their commitment. They play in pain so much, they give so much, questions seem off to me.
  3. 123 pitches in his last start, and more to come.... I've moved to nervous about skenes, but I'd take him or dollander, though if they can't get skenes, I'm hoping the HS CF falls to five.
  4. No way martin should ever see SS again. He's not a SS. Put him in LF or at second, maybe center. Help him succeed.
  5. Ryan, Ober, Varland all developed here..... You need time and lots of pitchers. ,
  6. I'm curious, where would you put five more infielders on the forty man? Did you not want them to add at the deadline last year? Not sign Buxton? Not sign CC?
  7. Awful take. We have no way to know. Besides, most people don't love their job, that's a myth.
  8. 3. When they were desperate. I just think that time has passed, but I could be wrong.
  9. He's not a potential CF. He didn't play there at all last year when they were desperate. That time is gone. If he has migraines, IL him.
  10. Florida complex. Had at least one home run, playing second.
  11. Other than skenes, not sure they pitched well this year. Also, not sure if he was the one that let skenes go 123 pitches with a huge lead.....
  12. If no one will do that, DFA him, but I think someone would give something for Max.
  13. Eat his salary, and trade for a high variance lottery ticket. They aren't winning with him.....they may as well try the unknowns.
  14. Good point. Add three or four more infielders to the forty man right now ... Without depleting the pitching.
  15. to be clear, I wouldn't expect much other than a lottery ticket.....
  16. I'd bet good money if they eat most/all of his salary, they can get a low A type or a recent international signee (at least). I'd like Larnach in left and Wallner in right at this point (when Trevor is healthy). Trust the pitchers, get some hitting.
  17. My unrealistic things involve moving on from CC and Buxton.....so, ya, not happening.
  18. Ya, I really should have just said 2B in that post. I have no idea if Severino is good or bad at 2B, I guess I could look (but he can't be as bad as Julien).
  19. The one thing I'd do for sure at this point is move on from Kepler. Deal him for some minor league pitcher that might turn into a RP someday. (the other things I'd do are unrealistic)
  20. Agreed. Lee is your 3B of the future, if Lewis can move to CF. I had hoped we'd get Lewis in CF this year, but that looks unlikely at this point. It's too bad, because it looks like Buxton isn't going back there any time soon. Salas or Severino are also possibilities at SS or 2B, in addition to Julien (no way I'd play him in the field if I could avoid it).
  21. Teams can get hot/lucky in short series. We'll never agree on this. If you are in position to win your division, you should be a buyer, IMO.
  22. Ah, got it. Ya, the game is littered with these kinds of stories, players that have a bit of luck....players that multiple teams move on from, but then have success (even long term). Players that aren't the center piece of a trade, but that turn out great.
  23. Rooker has been awful in May. He's a AAAA player.
