You know what's crazy about this forum? I simply gave an opinion. I thought that's what a forum was for. I said nothing outrageous. @JagwarI appreciate you seeing that. Thanks.

Grayson is going to be in the pen for the playoffs. I have been saying that and I think that’s obvious. Good news on Mounty.

I still don't think Westburg will be ready until the playoffs. I know people heal different but it took Mookie Betts 2 months to get back in the lineup. Westburg was injured 7/31.

Sure, because every broken hand injury is exactly the same and takes the exact same time to heal.  

I have no idea if/when Westburg will be back.  I’ll let the medical staff who are working with him and his particular injury figure that out.

Especially since they never really said what bone it is.  There is 27 bones in the hand and wrist.  So good chance they were not the same bone much less different spot or severity.

Great news especially on Coulombe and Westburg.  Reading between the lines, U had wondered if Coulombe was coming back thus year.  Both would be huge boosts to the team.  Any news on Grayson?

Nothing new…but we have had a lot of recent updates.

Frobby being snarky. Didn't @gtman55 say "I know people heal different"?

Getting Webb, Coulombe, GRod, Westburg healthy and productive would be like Orioles-only September trade deadline pickups

He also said he didn’t expect him to be ready until the playoffs, which is weighing Betts more than a younger Westy and different hand injury.

Hyde said in a post gamer that the goal is to get everyone back during Norfolk’s last week of play. This will be the real barometer of each player’s health.

He literally acknowledged that people heal differently. Number one, why jump on him for something he acknowledged? Number 2, it was very un-Frobby like

There is a wide range of Westy being ready. We shall see what happens and no one is right/wrong for speculating.

      Elias…DFA Kimbrel now!!

      By ShoelesJoe · Posted

      Career earnings to this point is $126 million, so don't feel too bad for him.

      I would not look at these numbers in a vacuum. There many intangibles that come into play regarding the injuries that may have contributed to the drop in performance from players. Not to mention players like Adley that appear to be playing through nagging injuries.

      Unfortunately, it was time. Too late in the season to see if he fix himself and no way was he going to be counted on in any big situations the rest of the year or the playoffs.  I think he was a good guy who was at the end of the his career.

      If they would make a change which I don't think they will the guy who was getting a lot of love around the league at one time was Carlos Beltran. Of course that was before he was part of the Astros scandal.

      Holliday and Mayo being completely useless has really been the dagger for me.  We saw scores of posts on here that they should be called up because they can at least out produce player X - well, that has turned out be way off base, because these two can't out produce anybody. I had been thinking that at least one if not both them would be useful if not vital cogs in the bottom of the line up at this point.  Instead, Livan Soto and Emmanuel Rivera are running laps around them from a production standpoint, FFS.  Urias and Mateo right around 1 bWAR each (if I'm reading the table  at BBref correctly).  We miss those guys way more than most people who wanted to DFA them early in the season would have thought.  I don't think there's any question they are around next year - Elias will be paranoid AF about position player depth now, and rightfully so.

      Personally I'm on he fence. Injuries have to be under consideration but man have they fallen apart. I'm fine giving him another year or letting him go either way.

      The offense didn't collapse because of losing Mateo and Urias. The culprits in no particular order: - Norby being traded when he was sorely needed for depth. Elias was reckless to give him away when an injury to any of Westburg, Gunnar, Holliday, Santander, Cowser, Mullins would have opened up regular playing time for Norby, and Norby should have been playing more before he was traded anyway, especially given this team's unbalanced makeup in favor of left-handed hitters. I've been advocating for Norby playing more all season (including over Mateo at 2B), even saying mutliple times and at multiple points in the season that he should have made the Opening Day roster over Tony Kemp. - Adley cratering to be one of the literal 5 worst hitters in MLB for a stretch in the second half, perhaps due to injury. - O'Hearn collapsing in the second half for a 2nd straight season. I criticized Elias for both bringing him back to block other younger players at DH (Norby, Kjerstad, Mayo) and also for not selling high on him and trading him prior to the deadline. - The Eloy acquisition being a waste of time and waste of the DH spot when he starts, as I also stated at the time the trade was made. Eloy has sucked hard for the past month, and he should be released next. - Santander is a streaky and fairly one dimensional hitter. When he's not hitting home runs, he doesn't add much value in terms of reaching base. He cooled off considerably right around the time the offense sunk to a new low over the most recent few weeks. Gunnar can't carry the offense by himself when Adley and O'Hearn have been sinking the lineup in the top 4 spots most of July, August, and September.
