Also bummed for Hamilton. He was throwing well until his last outing, which is probably when he hurt himself.

He exists only to be offended.

10 days, no more.

Sure, and if you needed a leadoff guy we could talk. But I think my batting champion leadoff guy singled in front of my 3 hitter hitting the ball on to the Ryan sounds better.

The 7 inning game makes this pretty ok assuming Giolito has a Lucas-like game. If you can get 6 to 7 innings out of him, then you set up with guys like Foster and Ross to cover most of the nightcap and go from there.

Things we were not wrong about: Ron.

The skill set is there to leadoff, but he just screams #3 hitter to me. You want guys on base in front of him. The power is ridiculous. Let him use it.

Which is why the thread was created.

Correct.

I knew I liked you.

I think it is Betts, but if I were starting a team, i would want one of Acuna ,Tatis or Robert so that I could build around them before they got a $30m annual salary.

Hopefully he can keep his pitch count down and take all 7 innings.

7 innings.

The guys at the site are currently the ONLY guys who can be traded (also including the 28 man ML roster).

Exactly.
