Well the only place that anyone thinks Lough is possibly an every day player is a few like you on this board.

Find the thread that pleads for Lough to be in the lineup everyday. I certainly can't remember one.

Tntoriole, earlier in this game thread: "He is no better than a 4th starter".

I missed the part about "we shouldn't think about extending him.." Chen, Gonzalez, Jiminez all pitching better than him so far this year, so that makes him.....??? 4th?

Not sure Schoop gets to that. Flaherty only got there because he's taller than an Ent.

Wow, the Rays are getting all the breaks today.

I was half joking. It's a tough play for any 2Bman. Flash did well to stop it.

Not that you care about accuracy but I like Lough as a platoon player not an every day player.

I do care. People defend the guy likened is their first born. We are in agreement. His only value is on a tea like this with weak defensive OFers. If we had better OFers, he should be gone.

    • would you?     https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10124411-white-sox-sp-garrett-crochets-top-landing-spots-amid-mlb-trade-rumors
    • I don’t think this matters. I think you get value where you can. The Rays have been willing trade partners in the past when it was clear they weren’t contending. Right now they are 4 games out of the last slot but have like 5 teams above them. Can they get it? Sure but it’s not that likely and in the past they’ve been realistic in their down type seasons.
    • I think Norby is going to be a very good MLB offensive player. I’m ok trading him but not for 1/2 season rental types.
    • Yeah I think they need to staggar the lefties in the rotation order. R-R-L-R-L like that.
    • Trading Mayo Kjerstad and Povich for one guy to become a relief pitcher is nuts.
    • We don't need starting pitchers. We need Relief Pitchers. We don't need average Relief Pitchers, we need consistent high leverage/high K Relief Pitchers.
    • If you feel comfortable putting Aiken and Baker (or even Tate) in during an elimination series, that's your prerogative. But I do not. Too inconsistent, which is the same reason why Mike Baumann pitched himself off the active roster. when spot was needed for returning starters off the IL. Currently Coulombe is on IL so we can't even count on one of our best. Cano has regressed from last season. We've also witnessed last season how Webb broke down from over use and was ineffective in the playoff series against Texas. Perez goes in streaks of either really good or concernedly bad (he loses his command). Akin's problem is he leaves the ball over the heart of the plate and he doesn't have good enough stuff to get away with it. They're meatballs. We might get some good times from Baker now that he's up, but I would only expect a month or 2 at best from him before he returns to old habits. And Suarez is a starter who wants to be a starter. Who knows if he will go back to the bullpen? He'll have to go deeper into games if he wants to stay in the rotation, otherwise, I think he should be in the bullpen. But that's not what he is right now in this moment. He's a starter with a ERA in the 1s.
