Why can’t they IL Vaughn and bring up someone else? Even if they aren’t on the 40-man, they just opened a spot yesterday.

Tied with the Nats for 4th, 1 GB back from Rockies for top 3.

Hahn has to know someone right? Like one of Jerry’s friend’s sons?

Idk who they’d even call up at this point. With the Shaw dfa, that should open a spot for Erik Gonzalez I guess.

Someone did in this thread.

You can say that about at least 5 other guys on this team sadly lol

Agreed. There’s no point at this point in the season

Welp…

Hand shake agreement to make a start after this weekend me thinks?

Fair

‘Tis sad.

Yeah, they can win this one for baby tonight but be 10 GB going into Monday lol

They gotta trade at least the rentals and we don’t need the false hope to deter them from that.

Losing 2/3 puts them at 10 GB with 6 games against Cubs (2) and Guardians (4) leading up to deadline.

It's the only way to gain much ground on them. 2 out of 3 you only gain one game.

He also doesn’t have to opt-out. They could have an agreement that he will start Monday for them if he stays a couple more days. I also wouldn’t be that worried about losing Dallas Keuchel if he did opt-out haha

They're both definitely not top tier organizations. Hell, not even top half, or even top 2/3.

If I were them, I would just have him start after the series.

Ayo!

That’s the whole point. He can’t stay in the lineup.

Build that trade value!

This guy gets it

Just because they need to add him to the roster or lose him doesn’t necessarily mean he’s going to make a start.

9 GB still. Sell sell sell sell sell The rental players and the team lol

Meh. They can trade Giolito and try to re-sign him long-term in the off-season if they want.
