Yea that was stupid by preller...turner is a stud. He's destroyed every level in very short period of time. Overrated and defensively horrible Desmond is gone.

Think Desmond gets a QO? It's a little risky now. Espinosa is doing well, but still won't have a position next season.

I think the Nats are ready to let him go. He may have to sign a one year contract with someone though to reestablish his value.

Daniel Nava could be interesting. Career .377 OBP and 120 wRC+ against righties. Platoon him with either Reimold or Pearce.

Would be pretty happy with this:

Vs. RHP

3B. Machado

RF. Nava

CF. Jones

1B. Davis

LF. Upton

C. Wieters

DH. Pearce/Paredes/Reimold

SS. Hardy

2B. Schoop

VS. LHP

3B. Machado

RF. Pearce

CF. Jones

1B. Davis

LF. Upton

C. Wieters

DH. Reimold

SS. Hardy

2B. Schoop

Lough

Flaherty

Joseph

But that's a 5 man bench. Maybe could roll with that for August until the September call ups?

Good we need some excitement. Our offense is boring as hell to watch.

Puig isn't exciting, he's a headache and Buck is still close with Mattingly. one phone call and that deal is dead. And btw, his offense has been bad this year. Not to mention his defense, if you can call it that, Mattingly is looking for ways not to play him.

Remember when Manny was a head case. So was Pedro Strop, Robert Andino, and Delmon Young. All of them quickly became favorites of Buck's. Puig's making baseball mistakes. He's not out there getting arrested.

Do you see what the Dodgers have after Kershaw and Grienke rotation wise? They know they need to add two starting pitchers. It would be a shame to have that huge payroll and get bounced in the 1st rd by the Nats.

The nats are chokers too...as much as I would like them to advance for beltway baseball.

I still don't think the dodgers or nats know how to get past the giants or cards despite having more talent

Dodgers and nats lack focus and fundamentals and always lose in October to sound teams giants and cards

So you think Johnny Cueto gets you three relief pitchers and Chen gets you Puig? With Hamels, Samardzija and David Price out there?

    • It can’t hurt to do research on him and place a call to Cards GM & see what’s involved . We need SP help . 
    • Here is my roster. Wasn't an easy task with some tough decisions C  Adley Rutschmann 2022 1B Rafaeil Palmeiro 1998 2B Brian Roberts 2009 SS Miguel Tejada 2006 3B Manny Machado 2015 OF Adam Jones 2015 OF Albert Belle 1999 OF Trey Mancini 2017 DH Chris Davis 2013          Bench Gunnar Henderson 2024 Bench Melvin Mora 2004 Bench Jay Gibbons 2003 Bench Matt Wieters 2011 --------------------- SP Mike Mussina 2000 SP Jason Johnson 2001 SP Wei-Yen Chen    2014 SP Erik Bedard 2007 SP John Means 2019          RP Jorge Julio 2002 RP BJ Ryan 2005 RP Jim Johnson 2012 RP Koji Uehara    2010 RP Zack Britton    2016 RP Felix Bautista 2023 RP Darren O'Day    2014 RP George Sherril 2008  
    • You must choose a 26-man roster from 26 seasons. Here are the rules. Ignore 2020 Select 13 position players, with 9 starters and 4 bench players Select 13 pitchers, with 5 starters and 8 relievers You can only select one player from each season from 1998-2024 (exclude 2020) You can only select a given player ONCE  Starting pitchers have to be starting pitchers, relievers have to be relievers I will amend rules as appropriate from any suggestions you have. Go. 
    • Now being reported on MLB Network in middle of Braves-Mets postgame wrapup.
    • Adley's teams have beaten Witt's teams by about 25 games/season the last 2 years and hopefully can maintain a lead the next 2-3 days. If McCann bats 9th, and Ragans is gone before Batter Faced #27, would the risk of forfeiting the DH be considered if a righty reliever is attacking McCann in a key spot?    Hyde has at least Kjerstad and Holliday on the bench, and maybe one of Mullins or Cowser if Slater starts. I am guessing the roster tomorrow will be 14 bats and 12 arms, so you might have one extra somebody for the team's 36th or 45th plate appearance. One factor against taking the chance...zombie runner is gone so the two teams could have long extra innings for the first time all year.
    • Not sure if it’s been shared already, but saw this and thought he would totally make sense as someone to target in the offseason. Cardinals are looking to reduce payroll, though not sure what a reasonable offer looks like for a 35 year old pitcher making 25 million a year for the next two years. A very light free agent class this year. Someone will definitely overpay for Burnes and I hope it’s not the Orioles. Severino, Buehler, Bieber and Max Fried are also intriguing. What say you? https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2024/09/report-cardinals-open-to-offers-on-sonny-gray.html
    • I was looking that up too. He was in the bullpen throughout 2018 brewers run. Had a very solid first playoff start in 2021, then a not so good one in 2023 as you posted. Postseason is a different animal, and he’s got some experience, but he’s not proven in the playoffs. Time to make that money Corbin!
