Roll Tide

So thinking about this my answer is really neither. IMO McKenna is more of a AAAA player. He was pumped for his speed and defense. The problem is his defense has been shaky at times and he’s a bat that would be exposed if he had to play regularly. As for Hays…. He’s just a solid player. Offensively, he’s just a sub .325 OBP guy. And I think we can do better with one of the guys waiting in the wings. His power doesn’t make it worth putting up a low OBP. Plus his cheap years are ending. So it gets expensive to keep him. I honestly think we should purge both. If I was pressed I’d probably keep Hays until I could add/bring up a ready LF. I see that Norby has 22 games in the OF and I’m. Hoping they determine he be an average to plus OF.

This is what Roch had to say after the game last night.

I think he’s just awful right now. I hope Elias isn’t overly stubborn on this. Admit defeat and clear Kimbrel and his $12 million off this roster.

Doesn’t look to a sound defensive player to me.

Yeah ….totally agree! We can cut Kimbrel loose and acquire another closer.

A bit premature to worry about this early. Plus they do platoon him with O’Hearn. I’d be selective when using him against righties.

I boycotted some of the dark Angelos years. Don’t know that I could ever stay away for very long.

Relief Pitchers are Volatile, Relief Pitchers are Volatile, Relief Pitchers are Volatile, Bowden is a goof, Bowden is a goof, Bowden is a goof Disclaimer…. I wanted to replace goof with idiot but was afraid it might be against the rules.

I don’t think any of it is ban worthy. But being a troll is and OOO certainly has teetered on that a few times. With that said, I guess he expects more from the great Roy Firestone. I’ve never viewed Roy as any more than a poster. I think we could all be best served to move on.

I’m surprised they waste their time talking this rubbish. You can see that there only 2 involved in the conversation.

I don’t expect Elias will aim as high as Kopech . We know Getz will be asking for the moon. I could see them chasing a guy like Clevinger.

Interesting……… Hays has no value but guys here want to give up our top pitching prospect for Tanner Scott who has 4 losses in 14 games. I think we should be able to get a decent reliever and a throw in or two. Hays is under control through 2025. Using the SSS slow start over his career numbers.

They could bring up Mayo.

Yeah good article…. I wonder if Hays has a shot of being dealt when he’s ready to return.

No doubt ..Keep it up @Roy Firestone
