On a day you have a double header?

I thought it was too hence the laugh emoji

How dare you update your profile pic from the great John Schriffen

There's that influx of Ishbia money!

Ha, when I saw the move yesterday I immediately thought: "Danger Will Robertson. Danger."

Right? Who the f*** cares if people get credit for going out on a limb.

Huh? I didn’t say he was going out on a limb lol

To be fair, can’t really be blamed for thinking he wouldn’t be anything other than an innings eater. He hasn’t really been that special in his career.

Yeah and wait for after the lockout

I was listening to the Score yesterday and they mentioned Venable mentioned that he’s using them as a platoon? Just dumb. (yes, I know Quero is in lineup today but they both should be)

Yeah if he were putting up Buxton numbers this year: 🤑

Who’s pitching the 9th? Any of you lucky enough to be sitting near the pen?

Gray

I know. Personally, just risk it and play both. Who the hell cares if you need to maybe pinch hit 2-3 times or let the pitcher bat once. Also, odds are the Catcher doesn't get hurt. Or just call up Korey Lee instead of some other waste of space player.

Yeah, they can start him every day but bat him lower against righties. Add him to the top against lefties.

If they don't dump for him literally anything in the next 3 weeks (including cash with him or not), it feels like they may just pick up the option and gamble again. Otherwise, what would be the point?

Man, I just look at a lineup like this and just hope for Robert to be moved quickly ha

I think they'll include whatever the amount is for the buyout (if a team decides to go that route at the end of the year). They are not getting back much either though. Might as well have just tossed in $10M cash in the offseason and moved him considering that's about what they will have paid him when they trade him.

lol all good

I don’t disagree with anything you said. I was just pointing out that it would be hard to figure out his value. He’s been cold and with so much control, better off just holding onto him. I think he will figure it out though. I love his approach at the plate.

Just DFA Rojas.

It’s not haha

What would Vargas even be worth? Since they traded for him, he had a stretch of being the worst hitter, then from end of April through like May he was good, and since he’s been bad again. He is young and has time on his side though.

Just as I didn't care what Kopech did after being traded last year and won’t care when Robert is dealt.

Yeah maybe that is who it was for. I think he was traded for Kikuchi to Astros last year.
