Jose Abreu

I'd also be hesitant to deal with Preller again since he may be hiding medical info or something like last time

Rodon and TA for Urias, Quantrill, ++? That way the middle infield situation would be clear... I don't think I'd do that if I were either team though. But if Tatis and Gore are untouchable, I don't know how it would work.

Yeah I'm not worried about this. No way we trade him unless we're blown away. And with his injury history, I doubt such a package will be offered

I completely agree which is why I'd rather hold on to Fry and bank on him continuing his performance.

Are you trying to say that Kimbrel is worse than those guys?

I think Palka may be the one to go down rather than Delmonico. But could go either way of course. Alternatively, Davidson could go down or be DFA'd/traded, letting Delmonico stay on as a 1B/DH/LF. We'd still have capable third basemen in Sanchez and Leury.

Not to mention lefties are hitting .089 against him for a .289 OPS. He's way better than the numbers suggest IMO. His ERA is also heavily inflated by instances where he allows a cheap hit or a walk, and then gets pulled for Rondon/Minaya to allow a ton of runs. If he stays healthy (relatively substantial if), I think we found a damn good reliever

Carlos Santana caught for awhile though

Best case, I can see a .330/.365/.475 kind of line from him. Don't think he'll walk too much nor will he have many homers. .840 OPS with those figures. Hard for me to envision it in the .900s given the lack of power

Honestly just removing Engel and Thompson from the equation makes that number significantly higher, I'm sure

A picture of him on a bus with the caption "5 hours" and a "shhh" emoji. However it may be the team bus ride or something. It's the emoji that intrigued me

Maybe we'll see multiple moves. Eloy posted a somewhat intriguing instagram story

Jace Fry, however, is not total garbage

Minaya is total garbage

Exactly. He's a fine player but he's being asked to do way more than what he's capable of. He should be playing no more than 4 times per week and never hitting any better than 7th in the order.

So tired of Yolmer batting 2nd

All Delmonico does is hit bombs

All Palka does is hit bombs

Gotta love a bee delay followed by an injured umpire delay

Reliever

I think this is the first time I've ever agreed with this guy

That was quite the play all around

If Covey starts sucking again, that can open an extra spot for Kopech/Stephens in addition to Shields leaving

Nice to see that for a change
