Mel- Who would you send down when both return ??? Both Maybin and Frazier have similar skills. Maybin a higher OBP%, Red SLG/OPS% Maybe keep both and DFA Morales. Let LMHU backup Voit and Gio. Gonna be a tough call either way. ANYONE HAVE ANY INPUT??? DFA Morales, Cessa and Green??? Or- Other???
Slinging names? When I called you bigbabyal? I only just realized that isn’t your name so sorry about that one. That wasn’t intentional. But you act like the fucking morality police on these boards. It’s not as if people are only just starting to complain about these guys. And I’m not complaining about a Tarpley type coming in and shitting the bed. I’m talking about Paxton, a man who threw a no-no last year and this year is struggling a ton. Tanaka, who has constantly given up HRs, and still continues to and it would be nice to see some sort of progress on him not giving up a HR plus per game. The ERA may be 3rd, but there are a TON of issues on this staff with guys not pitching how they should and regressing and not progressing. You cannot keep going to your bullpen like Boone does this early in the year and expect to have anything left in September/October. That’s an issue I have with Boone as is his love with Morales, who if DJ can play first, really isn’t needed on this team (despite finally having a good day today). Team is in first place in June. Cool. Do they give out trophies for that? No? Oh ok. Maybe that’s why we worry/complain because we can see that the team is flawed compared to Houston, who we are going to have to get through to get to the WS, and yet we go get Morales and keep him up here instead of going after a starter and getting someone. While I’m not a Keuchel fan, I would’ve taken a one year flier on him since he typically gives you innings and wouldn’t have cost anything but money. Cashman is limited in what he can do because of Hal only caring about money not winning, so he has to be budget conscience, which is why Keuchel didn’t happen. Nor Corbin.
See ya to Morales. Maybin has surprised, good athlete and defender. Stanton stay away, Judge Welcome back
Frazier is a concern because if you keep him and he starts in the OF, you know late in the game you have to sub for him defensively which means you have to keep another player on the bench to sub for him.
....^^^^ Without solid Pitching the Yanx will be toast. I expected a helluva lot more from Happ and Paxton. CC's signing was a fkng joke. Cesspool, Green, Tarpley and Cortes imo are shit. Even shit shines once in a blue moon, not in the end shit stinks. There's other questionable too...
Note to Paxton: if you are as far behind on your bills as you are on the hitters in this game you are in big trouble.
Yeah, his Defense is no doubt highly questionable. My fear is BaBoone is blinded by the longball, and can't be counted on to make these decisions, IF Trashman gives him permission...
Matt, first morales is dfa’d. Then either maybin is released or maybe Frazier included in a trade with Estrada who don’t have positions for my man scherzer
As Paxton exits after having his derriere pounded a look at the score board shows Tampa over Oakland 1-0 top 4, Top 3 Texas over Boston 3-1.
