Yep. I love it, but also kind of like the couple early days off where you can skip a 5th starter and stick him in the pen for like a week and carry an extra bench guy instead of a lower bullpen arm.

Like I said yesterday, good time to play them. Take advantage of the fact we aren’t playing 4 in Houston when they are healthy.

No, I’m pretty sure this exact thing has happened multiple times over last couple of seasons. Resulting in, you guessed it, a ground out to 2B.

Is it obvious? I couldn't tell you who the Yankees are playing next haha

It means something when competing for the last couple of spots is all. It's not an indicator of one's season.

This this this this this this

Take advantage of them being beat up. Good time to play them. Win 3/4 baby.

Yeah they really did punt 2 years of the window by hiring him.

Guess I could have also said this when you said we are waiting.

Doesn’t have to be finalized until game time. The moves will happen.

How many homers is Abreu going to hit this weekend? Feel like our former star players always do well the first series they play us.

He's now going to a World Series team from last year as a 4th OF. They need some OFs that can catch a ball.

Pache isn’t a switch-hitter.

Against LHP: 1.TA SS 2. Robert CF 3. Vaughn 1B 4. Eloy DH 5. Moncada 3B 6. Benintendi LF 7. Grandal C 8. Colas RF 9. Andrus 2B If they decide to sit Colas against the lefty, than Romy I guess.

He was great. Was.

Wasn’t Elvis re-signed before games started?

At this point, Romy at 3B for a game doesn't sound terrible...

Elvis, you better not start out cold because this guy will take your spot in the lineup if you do.

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/03/athletics-trade-rumors-cristian-pache-dfa-waivers.html A's exploring trades for Cristian Pache, who is out of options. Still just 24 with a great speed and defense and had a nice spring. Solid option for 4th OF?

Thanks for the reminder!

I thought he had an injury early on.

No, Clevinger.

Let Leury play 2 games and then officially DFA him haha

Idk I think you can put the O/U less than that and it would be safe. I don't expect to see him out there at all. No reason to.

Romy looked pretty good in CF going back on a ball (I think there was a video and a Tweet that mentioned he looks like a natural wherever you play him).
