Jose Abreu

He's been better than Engel at every facet at the game other than running

I may sound like a broken record in these game threads but I am so, unbelievably, indescribably, beyond tired of Adam Engel

It certainly wouldn't hurt a sales pitch to Machado/Harper

Ehhhh I think he's pretty much done

Nice

Nice

Rodon, Moncada, and TA all killing it? If we pull this out it may be my favorite game of the year

MONCADA IS GOOD

Of course, he's just being really annoying about it. Either way, his pitch count is too high for me to get too excited

Benetti needs to chill with the hinting right now, too

Yeah Renteria sucks

Moncada has been a walk god this month

Rodominant

Leave it to Avi to swing on a 1-0 count after back to back walks

Abreu misses a grand slam by inches

I know this is a game thread but if the Padres ruin their rebuild like this...

Moncada and TA doing very well tonight. Good to see

Nice play TA

I believe Trout is 0-something against Rodon in his career. There's some stat where Trout, Betts, Bryant, maybe Goldschmidt or someone, etc. are 0-20 against Rodon. Purposely waiting to post this until after the AB so I can't be a jinx

My roommate is actually good friends with Kyle Muller from high school. I didn't realize how good he has been this year. I'd be happy with that deal

I think he's this month's grossly overrated Yankee by fans/media so people think he has a ton of trade value. I can't even have a conversation with a Yankees fan lately without them bringing up how good Drury is.

Engel over Leury again, yay

Of course it's not much sample size, and while his numbers may worsen, I think that he has the control and makeup to remain an effective reliever if healthy. Groome, on the other hand, is someone who may never be healthy. Relievers are indeed insanely volatile but I'd still be hesitant to give up on one who's so promising, cheap, and throws 5 quality pitches

I truly think you have to be a lunatic to take him seriously at this point. He says one thing and then backtracks it 5 minutes later and his base pretends that the first thing never happened. Rinse and repeat.
