A little off topic...but...I would trade:
Correa, Miranda, and Buxton (about $53 in '25 and about $48 in '26-'28)
for
Arenado and Winn (about $33 in '25, $30 in '26, and $20 in '27)
I think this would benefit both teams...
You think all of those teams would rather have those SS than Correa?
Perdomo 3HR. 37 RBI, .718 OPS
Winn is a nice player with a little more upside.
Was Fitzgerald a flash in the pan? Moot point, as they already were scared off by CC's health.
Boston could go either way.
Neto could easily switch positions.
I would say it is a long shot we trade CC, but not impossible.
How about Arenado and Wynn for Correa and Buxton? :)
1) Bob & Jakob Dylan: Let's mend this father and son relationship and bring Robert Z back to MN for his final years.
2) Elan Musk: If we relocate, might as well be Mars.
3) Ryan Reynolds & Hugh Jackman: Reynolds has shown interest in buying a sports franchise-why not bring along Wolverine?
4) Packers' model-but we become Juicy-Luicy heads.
5) Ashley and Mary-Kate
6) Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Pierce Bush: ownership/leadership in their genes!
7) Tiki and Ronde Barber
8) Beyonce & Jay-z's twins: Sir and Rumi Carter
9) da Waltons (cheaper labor = cheaper tickets/beer prices?)
10) Bernard Arnault (richest person on the planet...why not). We can give away fashion and cosmetic products every game to increase wife attendance,
I'd actually consider having Thielbar as the opener in this one, then Festa. Edwards, Norby, and Burger all hit RH pitching better, and it would shorten the game an inning. But I digress.
Will be fun to watch Festa in a big game situation.
If you read my prior post my main point was he has taken 329 plate appearances away from others this year.
This is far bigger than today.
But if you really want me to answer your question, I would say Wallner, Larnach, Keirsey, Keaschall, or Erod.
Well the difference is Julien and Lee are young and getting better (or at least deserve a chance for the opportunities). Margot is old and on his way down.
Get over it. You are a comedian.
You're right Mr. Vanimal. He should be batting leadoff for us right now.
And he had no influence on any of our losses with his amazing season.
I have no idea what else to say. I'm baffled by some of you. All good. Everyone has a right to their own opinion.
True-the offense has been horrendous. When an entire team goes into a funk, someone has to provide a spark. Was never going to be Margot.
His offense has stunk the entire year...he took 300 ABs from others. When the season comes down to less than 5 games, these things count.
I have no idea how people are defending him...or Rocco for playing him...or the FO for not cutting bait. Beyond me.
