What Will The McKenna Move Be? DFA or Trade?


Recommended Posts

I will continue to predict that he's traded for cash or PTBNL, to some outfield starved team with no good CF options. McKenna is still young, decently fast, can play all 3 outfield positions well enough, and has occasional pop against LHP. That's a fairly attractive package when you put it all together, at least enough to be traded for cash.

Twitter is a dumpster fire.  I'm not sure why you'd wanna be there, it's a bunch of people pissing in the ocean and thinking they're special.

I think most of the allure of social media is that it convinces people that they're special. 

Including Ryan Mckenna, there I said it. 

Okay I'm kidding about that part. But I hope he lands on his feet somewhere. I could do without the dew rag but he's alright. Seems like a Boston-type guy to me.

I know. I ask myself that a lot.

I do have some good conversations on there and there is a lot of good content posted at times but if it went away tomorrow, we would be better off for it.

That's a do-rag or a durag, snowflake.

Sorta.  I mean, I follow Super 70s sports, 3 year letterman and some Orioles/Commies content.  But even then, it's still hard to avoid everything else.  I keep getting suggestions for crap I'm not even remotely interested in.

I use Twitter for news and that's it. I haven't tweeted in ages and I don't follow anyone I know. I just follow teams and journalists mostly. I never read comments either.

This is the way. Or just ignore it altogether.

    • If he has been injured all this time, why are they still letting him play? After a month of poor performance with an injury, they should have sat him. EDIT - Screw a month, 2 weeks.
    • And McCann is our worst RHB facing a dominant lefty with reverse splits. You have to think a K is a high likelihood.  And then to send him up there with Ramon on 3rd, you have to expect the same outcome.
    • I don't like hearing that a catcher has a back issue -no matter how big or how small it is- at age 26.  
    • IMO he made two decisions that were clearly wrong, pitching to Witt and not PR Holliday, to go along with a couple others I didn’t agree with but are certainly debatable. There is no doubt that the game was lost because the bats couldn’t push a run across, but everyone has a job to do, and like the batters, Hyde didn’t do his.
    • I use the StatCast search function. It’s a little more complicated for chase rate, ground ball rate, popup rate, and sweet spot rate because you need to adjust selected pitch attributes/outcomes as well as total pitch definition and then use % of pitches. I believe popups are categorized by stringers and generally capture balls that an infielder could catch.  I believe Adley’s fly balls have gotten can of cornier even without the popups.
    • ...or simply choose not to even attempt to play situational baseball.  As I posted in another thread, 0-0 game both teams aces are dealing.  Ced leads off the inning with a double.  Your #9 hitter (McCann) is coming to the plate with your two best hitters (Gunnar and Westburg) to follow. Instead of bunting Ced to 3rd and almost assuring yourself a 1-0 lead which firmly puts the pressure on KC, Hyde chooses to let McCann swing away.  He feebly strikes out, Gunnar grounds out (there was your run), and Westburg flies out.  0 runs, 1 hit, 0 errors. 1 left on....
    • Adley - Is it an injury? Is it a woman? Is it the "process?" Is it just who he is at his age? What Is It? And no, I'm not doing a pole. Wait till 2025 for the answer - I think. Till then - speculate. This off season goin be fun on here. This thread kinda makes me miss Rick Dempsey and I have absolutely no idea why. 😄 Oh yea, he was our last WSMVP.
