Bonemer, I Hardly Know Her

Yes, it will be fascinating to see how the infield crunch plays out between the guys you mentioned plus Vargas, Meidroth, Bonemer, Antonacci, and more. Billy's glove might be the loudest tool in the entire organization and it's at a premium position. That will carry him a long way.

If not tomorrow, then the next day. And if not then, definitely the day after that.

3-2 to start the Yankee, Rays, Red Sox, G Words 11 game stretch.

I think so. Would be nice to go on a run and get to 10+ over

Good that the back end of the pen got the night off. They have to cover 7 innings tomorrow.

It's not a middle tier system. It's a top third system.

A real rumor! Seems like a lot for a guy who is really struggling this year, and on an expiring deal, but maybe I'm overrating Boston Smith.

Just send Skubal to the Dodgers. Rip the bandaid off, get it over with, so the rest of us can fight over the rest.

He'd ruin the magic wand, though.

I really think his bat will play at the MLB level. Where does he land on the field is the question. If he develops as a serviceable defensive catcher, he has huge potential.

Yeah but he was completely speculating. He didn't have info.

It's the more fun alternative to him ending up a Dodger

I'd do sick, disgusting, unforgivable things for a win today and a big trade. Even just a rumor...a little taste is all I need.

He made another rehab start on Tuesday and looked good. 4 innings I believe.

5 days to go and not only has nothing of substance really happened leaguewide, but there hasn't even been many legit rumors. I suppose this is a function of the new reality that there are less known sellers with the expanded playoffs.

Get him now so he can start this weekend. We are bleeding games with bad pitching.
