Both Collins and Rondon are capable of playing 1B.

His time here reminds me of the scene in the Dark Knight when the Joker burns the pile of cash.

Palka and pitcher then? How awful would an Eloy, Jay, Palka OF look? Yikes.

In the sense that they've already paid him about half his salary. The sunk cost would be whatever they owe him.

It was more in reference to if Palka is truly coming up (someone said he's not in the Charlotte lineup). Edit: unless he's *gulp* going to play RF.

I don't think Collins will see regular at bats until we have a third catcher or he's back in Triple-A.

Makes sense then. Edit: who are the options? Drawing a blank at the moment.

I've been saying Monday as well so we were on the same page.

That certainly aged well.

The move does open up a spot on the 40 so you would think it would be for someone not on the 40-man being added.

Agreed.

Fuck it just call up Cease. He can try figuring it out in the majors. Although it would probably be better if there was a James Shields-veteran type here as well.

Who's the poster who regularly writes letters to Jerry and wanted to be interviewed for the GM job? This might be the closest opportunity he will get lol

One thing is for certain....don't pick up Nate Jones option.

Yeah would rather see Mendick up.

Who? Theres no one available. Unless you are referring to the trade route.

Thanks!

I don't really see the fit. When Castillo comes up, Collins and Abreu should be getting a bulk of the playing time at 1B and DH.

Yeah the skepticism is definitely fair. But there is a reason for hope based on what I said earlier.

Yeah. Overall, it was a great deal. But it may be time to move on. 1 year deal, lower AAV deal at most. And to DH and not hit 3rd.

ABREU!!! @ron883 , please keep posting in the Abreu thread!

At least its only money with him. Even though we gave up something small for Alonso, we also helped a division rival shed payroll.

Tilson left with flu-like symptoms.

Not sure. Maybe Tilson injury?

Looks like this company is making me an offer. Benefits and perks are even more amazing than I thought. Easy decision to leave my current job.
