Obviously it's time to start the sell-off.

What kind of package you think they can get for Gunnar?

They better dig up Babe Ruth and a time machine for Gunnar and Adley.

      More unnecessary Hays calumny.  Hays has hit into DP’s in 9.1% of his DP opportunities in his career, well below the major league average of 10.2%.   This year, he was at 3.5%, having hit into one DP all season.  If you’re going to bash a player after he’s gone, at least have a factual basis for it.

      I like KB and think he is Uber talented.  He has an incredible voice and a passion for the game.  With that said, his pop culture tangents get a little annoying.  But then again, I can’t imagine the things that would come Out of my mouth if I had to talk for 3 hours non-stop.

      They just failed on getting that one really solid BP arm. Domínguez and Soto have potential and upside to do well but they are far from a sure thing.

      Or saying a pitch missed low when it was an inch below the strike zone and 3 feet outside

      To your first point, yes, the speed is the difference maker.  That plus the power makes him a potential superstar who has the ability to effect the game in a variety of ways.   To you second point, the beauty of their deadline approach was that they were able to add pitching plus two big bats (Holliday & Mayo).  They arguably got the best pitcher available.  Had they gone after a higher target (Skubal) they would have only been able to add pitching and NOT been able to add the impact bats (Holliday & Mayo).  Net net, they came out way ahead of where they'd be with Skubal in the rotation IMO.

      Who will be our position player September callup?

      Really unclear right now since we don’t know when Westburg and Mateo will be back, either. I also still think it will be on the radar to sneak Mayo back to AAA for a couple weeks at some point before the end of the year so he’s ROY eligible next year - not a requirement if he’s doing well and contributing, but maybe if he warrants a reset. If not Kjerstad, I expect it will be pinch runner / defensive replacement types that don’t require adding a prospect to the 40-man early (like EBJ or Fabian). Not exciting. Could even be Hunt or Handley if they want to be able to pinch hit / pinch run for McCann without having Adley need to come into catch, and evaluate them for whether they warrant offseason 40-man spots.

      Ah okay, was just thinking because of your username.
