  1. Unless you think we can win in October with two OFs who were MiLB free agents during this season in Jake Lamb and Brian Goodwin, you are punting tomorrow to win today.
  2. Winning now is nice, but winning in October is WAY more fucking important. Don't lose sight of that. Brian Goodwin and Jake Lamb aren't going to help you win in October. Andrew Vaughn can help you win in October. Maybe I'd be more panicked now if we were behind, but we aren't, and the team chasing us has lost most of their starting pitching staff.
  3. So your list consists of the guy who just got put back on to the DL, and one with a literal 32 AB sample, presented as equal information. OK. That's all I need to know about how honest you are being here.
  4. Also the idea that somehow we have better players than Andrew Vaughn in the minor leagues buried below the 9 OFs we have employed this season at the major league level already is almost certainly false. It is the epitome of back up quarterback syndrome.
  5. Zero. We are all about unwritten rules.
  6. Posts like this are such trash for no other reason, that in cases like this it is actually MUCH easier to prove a legal liability case on a civil level, than a criminal level, and past that SHE won't get put on trial when her accused should ACTUALLY be on trial because of how abuse and sex cases are currently tried.
  7. It seems like you feel that Andrew Vaughn will never improve, which I can't disagree with enough. He's a rookie going through rookie growth pains. Maybe a Jake Lamb is a better option today, but Andrew Vaughn is going to be a professional hitter for a long time at the major league level. If he had been able to play OF when he was drafted, he may well have been a 1-1 candidate. You given Andrew Vaughn all of the ABs you can because unlike Jake Lamb, the kid has major upside. Heck there is even a real chance that Vaughn is a better hitter by the end of this season, let alone the next 10 years.
  8. I could see having add a higher level OF than Eaton for sure, but like I said, you aren't capable of keeping OFs 7 MLB caliber players deep.
  9. Depth is nice and all, but really isn't anyone surviving their top 4 OFs being on the DL. That isn't realistic. There just aren't enough 25 and 40 man roster spots to store that much talent.
  10. Just got done looking at his FG page. It isn't great.
  11. I am probably going to jinx us here, but I remain shocked that of all of our players, Leury Garcia is still healthy.
  12. There are no GOOD options left internally. You play with what you can, and hope to make it by.
  13. Sheets can barely play a corner OF, let alone CF.
  14. 2021 OF Depth 1.Robert 2.Eloy 3.Eaton 4.Engel 5.Vaughn 6. Leury 7.Lamb 8.Goodwin 9.Gonzalez We could quite literally be running our 3rd string OF out there as a part of the starting line up against RHP, if Leury were to play IF for some reason.
  15. Currently our #1, #2, #3, #4, and #7 OFs are on the DL, if you count AV as our #5 OF, and Leury as #6.
  16. And the problem is that this the same basic response he took to pitchers cheating.
  17. Honestly the biggest problem of all of it is MLB let them all tell on themselves instead of punishing them for being the cheating scumbags that they were.
  18. And there you go, now you have the motivation for Mr Fun to be here. Hope the paycheck is nice.
  19. And now we have arrived at the "everyone else was doing it" defense. I don't let me children get away with this, let alone a grown ass man.
