  1. I agree... a true 5 tool player ability.
  2. Vaughn, Hamilton, or Engel depending on who's playing CF and RF.
  3. I like him a lot. Hope that both he and Burger get plenty of playing time.
  4. With Engel looking good and these two guys returning we will have an abundance of offensive people we want to play. Try to find a short-term 2nd base upgrade and some BP help does it for me. I wouldn't mind an upgrade at catcher but I was pleased to see the way Zebby handled the position.
  5. Baseball is a game where the decision you make today can affect the game tomorrow. I was critical of TRL resting Anderson on Tuesday since we have the AS break next week. I was panicked after losing the two games in Detroit and the Grandal injury. However, we won the Tuesday game and yesterday Tim goes 4 for 4 and looks lots better. He plays everyone so they are ready when needed. His in-game decisions irk me often but those decisions work out frequently. At the end of the day, TRL has won a lot of baseball games and he knows it's a long season.
  6. That amount of money would be made up in positive fan goodwill.
  7. Hamilton, Goodwin, and Leury have become something out of nothing. Amazing!
  8. I've been noticing the body language between TLR and the players as they exit the field lately. I think they like each other. Just one man's observation.
  9. Seby looked very comfortable back there. Showed a good arm and didn't spend the day chasing after the ball. Defensively he looked better than Grandal or Collins IMO.
  10. Injuries have given us a chance to see Burger, Sheets, and the development of Vaughn in LF. Some of that may help in our playoff depth.
  11. He has looked very solid behind the plate IMO.
  12. Who is this Garcia guy? Looks like a different player.
  13. Electronically called balls and strikes will be a welcome addition when it gets here.
  14. The FO made a reasonable decision to acquire Eaton and a reasonable decision to cut him loose IMO. Seems to me they are being proactive far more than in prior years.
  15. The vast majority of us keep calling for BP help, a 2 nd baseman upgrade, an outfielder, etc. If we get these new guys quite a few moves like this are happening.
  16. The Beckham move is overdue IMO.
  17. Without question...they are going to make the effort to win this thing. The money invested would have prevented this in prior years.
  18. It won't bother me if none of our guys play. The arms need a rest just like the batters.
