How about Moncada plays like he deserves the position instead of the IL first? He's obviously not right mentally and/or physically. Grandal you can chalk up to the aging cliff even if Abreu is coming out of it.

He's no Lamb ka bob. Deluxe Burgatron.

Alex Rios…

Do you know Mike McNieve? He recommended Middleton/Cross Plains and Verona SD. Lara Logan? By, the way, I’m from Bettendorf and was Roy Marble’s tutor, haha.

He was out of options, right? Guess it’s appropriate as the Mariners are the White Sox of the Left Coast minus the Cano deal.

They’re unlikely to trade Colas or Vera. And I’m pretty sure they can pull any of those three deals off without Montgomery by adding lesser pieces to make it a 2-3 B/C prospect trade. That said, we really can’t outbid the Padres for Benintendi if they go all out. So Kath, Kelley, Ramos, Rodriguez, Sosa, Cespedes, Adolfo, pretty much anything not nailed down in A/A+ ball in general. The Royals need power hitters, and they are likely to try to dump Dozier as well, so anyone pretty much with athleticism and/or plus power potential is who KC should logically be targeting. Not as familiar with M’s and Reds, but it shouldn’t be that hard to match up successfully.

What is YOUR solution? One win they desperately needed simply is a reprieve for what’s coming if they refuse to make changes and continue to be complacent/arrogant.

Don’t think they can afford to think this way any longer…or that Abreu even wants to continue playing based on a growing amount of evidence.

Trade for Benintendi and Adam Frazier OR Brandon Drury. Bench/IL Moncada and IL Grandal as well, bring up Carlos Perez to split time with McGuire. Trade Abreu, finally put Vaughn at 1st (most controversial but completely necessary to put everyone where they belong defensively) Get back Kelly and Lynn. Jimenez eventually returns at DH. Sheets to Charlotte. Split OF/DH time with Pollock, Frazier, Engel, Benintendi. DFA Harrison asap. Leury and or Mendick last off the bench, period, after TA7 returns. Don’t count on Mendick as everyday 2b. Adam Frazier would be the better get (vs. Drury) not based on numbers over Drury but positional flexibility…he would get majority of starts at second and block Leury. The NL to AL thing with so many in the past is another factor with Drury. Padres are getting worst NL outfield production and will be the toughest competition for Benintendi. Let the Twins go after Montas/Castillo and hold your prospect base for the future. It would be a massive shakeup with Harrison, Moncada, Grandal and especially Abreu…but the right move for this season and moving forward regardless of the 2023 manager’s identity.

The Central odds are a lot better than the WC. For that spot, it’s a five team race right now and not even counting the M’s in. NL, totally different story other than SFG, StL, Braves and possibly the Phillies fighting for 2 bids out of 4.

And you are from WHERE exactly?

Roughly 20000 actually.

Zunino Kiermaier Margot Diaz Choi...have to avoid the longball Liam.

Umm...he's fine as a utility guy. But TLR might have no choice as long as he keeps hitting

Sign OU's Alo haha. Also, Dodgers about to take a big hit with $310 million payroll. Won't blink.

To replace Sheets. They need to give Pollock everyday playing time first to see if he can go on an extended run.

Review?

Super fortunate no HBP and yet another blown save.

Need a spark somehow some where. At least Burger and Perez. Still no 2B solution either.

Curse of the Covid Vaccine Strikes KG

Former Cubs farmhand...Paredes.

Walk the guy on an 0/21 slide. Kiss of death.

0/21 15 ks 10/21 for Phillips prior to that.

Moncada and Grandal need to watch from the bench while guys like Burger Mendick Perez or Yermin play. Phillips struggling mightily. Walls unavailable.
