He’s pitching tonight. Not that I think it’s happening but they wouldn’t be in the same deal. Romy could always be a possibility for the A’s.

Did I miss why Engel is playing

Yep and Stoney even said Kimbrel mentally doesn’t like not being the closer. I personally think it’s a horrible decision keeping him on the roster for a role he doesn’t want.

On WS Talk podcast, Stoney said he thought Kimbrel is likely to be traded if a team has an injury to their bullpen. Doesn’t sound like anything imminent.

Just wait for the reaction if Kopech looks bad tonight

Yes

Lots of smoke the Reynolds trade takes place

Who knows

I feel like he’s going to sign a deal like Rodon but for a few million less per year. Gives the signing team some protection where they can bring him back if he has a big year. Have a very hard time seeing any team give him four years.

And trade Bellinger for Kimbrel

Sox won’t give him a one year deal

Nah, he will just take a one-year deal

He also had bad luck in that he had some deep fly balls at Texas that would be gone elsewhere.

He said the untouchable comment because Babe Ruth got traded once. I don’t think they’re willing to trade Vaughn.

Yeah seemed he was referring to SP, but IIRC he said he thought RF should be fine but the front office is always looking for ways to improve a team and that no one should be untouchable.

He thinks Adolfo likely makes the team unless a trade happens

Stoney sure seems to think a trade is possible. He reiterated on TV today the same stuff he tweeted this week.

Adolfo impressed me nearly every at bat. And yes, Romy over Harrison should have happened.

This is your starting LHP lineup, with Vaughn playing instead of Leury.

Only way I see them getting rid of Sheets is if they’re able to get Meadows in a Kimbrel deal. It’s very unlikely.

I can almost guarantee it’s not the Sox

Bruce Levine is the worst

I think he’ll make the start but be limited to 3 innings

Had COVID which slowed down his offseason training
