Il BuonO

He IS the worst player in the league! Don’t you get that? And useful on the field? Nope. No chance. He’s toast. Get over it. I see your angst and raise you delusion.

It was six inches over the wall and Mullins jumped just high enough to reach it. If you wanna go on about how difficult that is have at it, but I’ve seen better catches by lesser fielders.

He’ll straighten out to mediocre?

So…. Bradish Kremer Rodriguez Irvin Wells That’s right, no Gibson.

I had agreed with you until recently. They now have a surplus of middle INF types (Westburg, Ortiz) from which to trade. Buying the pitching could be a thing they do. I’d argue there’s a way to keep them both, but not while upgrading the rotation. That said, it would be nice to get a top arm for a change.

I don’t disagree with any of this. All very plausible.

To answer your question, yes to Eovaldi. He was a reasonable target for them. Pretty sure they didn’t make an offer.

Gibson needs to go. Period. He’s the weak link and a trip to the IL won’t change that.

“If” being the key word in that sentence. I’d still like to see Frazier go.

Looked to me like it was only six inches over the wall, so not incredibly difficult. It was a good catch and he did take away a HR. Mullins looks good to me going to his glove side and not so much to the gap in RCF. That was borne out by OAA on a post Tony made last year. He often looks a little scared of the wall on many balls and I usually attribute it to him not finding the wall and then shying away from it as he gets close.

They’re ahead because they’re better.

Am I the only one who thinks the praise for that catch is overblown? And yes, his arm does matter. He’s improved, but good arm best plays in LF. Eventually that’s where he’ll be.

Strong defense at 1B is generous. He’s passable.

So, this Henderson kid might be a keeper?

He was never any great shakes.

Gibson….exciting.

I was excited until you said that.

Get Josh Donaldson!

Not dead yet.

Anyone warming?

Put him on

Ok, need another strike out of Rizzo.

Bradish

Come on!

Uh oh
