Buster Olney reporting NYY have had conversations with Jazz about trying 3B.     Would he be better or worse than Coby Mayo there these 2 months for the AL East championship race?

You think we can get the Yankees to trade for Mayo?  Who do you think we could get?

You don’t seem to get it. Mayo and Basallo aren’t just prospects. These guys are upper echelon elite offensive talents that have usually been at the top of their leagues offensively while also being v

I doubt that would be Orioles we want Someone that can hit a little lefties and be the short end platoon type guy not a starter type player.  I think Seattle would be the play there for some pitching.  

We are rumored to be looking for a RH to replace Hayes. He bats RH….whats the question

I was a little surprised we didn’t name a starter for 2nd game tomorrow.  Even with a trade I doubt it a guy that could get here for start anyway.  Povich just pitched so not a lot of choices unless they working on deal with McDermott and other team doesn’t want him pitching for some reason.

Yes as a platoon type guy not a full time starter to take away at bats from Kjerstad and Cowser.  Doyle hits right handers just as good as lefties.  They want a right handed bat that can hit lefties and are comfortable playing center, they clearly were not with Hays playing center with his slowing speed.    You don’t trade Hays to get those guys at bats then bring another guy that will take even more.

Suarez with another ineffective start and fails to complete 5 innings once again. Hard to figure Elias sees him as the number 5 the rest of the season. 

He would’ve completed five innings at least if not for the catastrophic defense behind him.

It’s really hard to ask a guy to get five outs in an inning.

That's why you get guys that can strike guys out.  Lot harder to screw up a strikeout.

I think his stuff plays up as a reliever. I think he'd be a good option out of the pen

That’s entirely possible, and I’d sure like to get a better starter with more track record, but if it worked for the bad defense, he would easily have completed five innings, and given up two fewer runs too.

I checked, Povich hasn't pitched since the 24th with Norfolk.  Hopefully he's better than last time we saw him.

I would love for Suarez to basically replace Irvin as the long man. One more starter acquisition could make that a reality.

He didn’t pitch particularly well.  The team made some mistakes, but also a couple of great plays behind him.

Don’t disagree with that, I’m just pointing out that if the defense behind them in that inning had been clean, he would’ve finished the inning.

He has obviously been trending down over his last several starts, I don’t know whether the clock struck midnight or he’s getting tired, but he’s definitely getting worse.

      No, as it appears to be a group think decision, where all have some input.  In the end it really doesn't matter if it's all Elias, Sigbot or Hyde or some combination of the 3, Hyde is the one who defends it to the media/fans, and he's the one who gets paid to take the critism/blame.  Either way, starting Slater is the move that WHOEVER make the decisions appears to love, so that's what I expect to see, even if it doesn't make sense based on this years performances.

      Baker optioned, Davidson called up

      I’m guessing he may be bulk reliever later in game. Have to see.

      You think Hyde alone makes the decision?

      Gil has been terrible in his last 2 starts, he has  given up 10 earned runs in 11 innings

      It's a meaningless game so hard to read anything into it. It could also be more of an "opener" gambit so that Davidson can be brought in with favorable matchups. For a team that believes so strongly in matchups, I don't know why we don't use the opener more often, especially when it has been effective against us.

      Both are deserving. That’s not the point. How they construct the pen in ‘25 may be different. None of the guys you mentioned have been pen guys, although McDermott probably should be. Young and Rogers are more of a starter repertoire. Armbruster and others, like Tony said in another thread, should be pen arms. You need flexible and effective arms to move up and down, while they gain experience. We need some guys with some swing and miss stuff. Adding Bautista back into the back end moves everyone down a notch, but some of the guys we have now will likely have to move on for the purposes of flexibility. There is always some natural turnover, and for good reason.

      And?  If they were buying his career stats, then they were fooled by a bait and switch.  Yeah, career numbers are good, but they don't reflect the reality of this year.  .541 OPS against LHP.  Elias/Hyde has a tendency to bring in guys who might have had good career numbers, but who are not playing at that level in the current year, but then letting them play like they are performing at career levels.  Slaters numbers this year don't reflect that he should be getting starts versus LHP over Cowser, even with the struggles Cowser has had.  That said, I fully expect to see Slater starting as that's the move Hyde will love, and will then speak eloquently at how great Slater is hitting against LHP this year, even though that's clearly a lie.
