Jose Abreu

I don't like this logic. I understand protecting the plate but it's hard to teach a guy with a good eye to swing at balls just because umpires may mess up

Ending games in ties is also not baseball

Yeah, it's the 13th inning, so let's use a guy for one batter and then pull him

I think the price on Suarez, given his contract, would be outrageous. Like, Luis Robert and Dylan Cease +++ kind of outrageous. Senzel and India, I can see, though

While I agree with the sentiment, he checked his swing on the 2-1 fastball because it was a ball, and it was called a strike

*Says all biases aside* *Makes a biased argument*

Why not Ruiz? Is he more like a 6th/7th inning guy?

He was already on the DL, so "Luis Robert to DL" wouldn't make any sense.

Avi Garcia

So are you saying demote one, trade one, or something else?

He's back.

I don't know if you're allowed to say that, a good portion of the board thinks Abreu is bad

Hey, we agree on something! Miracles do happen

Wow, the first ever non-human to win player of the week. A true feat

Someone doesn't seem too happy. And Eloy liked this too

By the way, we're the home team (thread title)

Yes, that was indeed him

Not really. Eloy can’t play center field and we needed a center fielder. If he’s not up this weekend then I’ll agree.

Really surprised that Jose Ruiz didn't make it. It's cool how a lot of the guys on this list could easily be argued as top 10 organizational prospects if they were in other teams' systems.

I'm glad to see some positive trend in Palka's defensive numbers but his statcast defensive metrics are still awful: https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/catch_probability_leaderboard

Davidson is probably worse than both, especially since the end of April, but for whatever reason I don't see the organization cutting ties with him.

I have a feeling Palka will win this but I wanted to know who was preferred to stay here when Eloy comes up. Since sending down Engel would mean that only Leury would be capable of playing CF, I don't see that one happening. Last 28 days: Delmonico: .257/.333/.629 for a .962 OPS Palka: .273/.298/.655 for a .953 OPS If you had to pick one to keep, who do you take?
