Yeah that option is for $14 mill. And they have Goodwin who can get at bats until Adell is ready. I wouldn't mind Kalhoun for RF and hitting towards the end of the lineup (7 or 8).

Yep.

Also, feel free to move this to the minor league section. Probably where it belongs.

Lol my reaction when I came across it.

Minor league deal. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/06/white-sox-sign-jacob-scavuzzo.html They just signed him and I already want him in RF. That's how the RF situation has been this year.

Thanks! And I did find out they have a temp coming in to take over her current responsibilities. While she's on leave, she will probably log in at month-end next month I would imagine to cover the stuff that I took over from her. I'm not going to worry about it though. Gotta worry about myself and do what's best for me.

If I go out and get food on my break and I'm meeting up with friends, it's usually something quick (like your Subway example) except we sit and talk for a while. Don't really have the time to go to a nicer place and be served unless my boss is out of the office and I know I can get away with it.

Yeah they're definitely running out of guys they can start. Injuries, the rotation having Despaigne, no one else pitching that well at Triple-A (hell, get Detwiler up here too). I also almost suggested picking up Smyly and Straily until I looked at their numbers.

Couple of starters (Smyly, Straily) were DFA'd over the last couple of days where I thought "hey, Sox should take a gamble on these guys since their rotation is non-existent" until I looked at their numbers.

Haha and hell, a team in Nashville could even be Central Division.

Yep. And then put an expansion team in Portland and somewhere else. Preferably somewhere West to balance it out more.

I really wish offices would be more open to the 4-day work week. My friend lives in Colorado and works for Zillow where they have an office (wish they had one in Chicago) and they have the option to work an extra 2 hours a day and have a 3-day weekend every week.

Hoping I can get to this point. My job is becoming unbearable.

So they can draw poorly in 2 countries? In the MLBTR comments section, someone pointed out that the Expos had the worst attendance their last like 5 years of existence. Why are they pushing Montreal?

So I went on the second round of interviews, they all really seemed to like me, and I should hear back early next week as one of the people who interviewed me is on vacation this week. Sounds very promising. Edit: Just found the person who transitioned the inter-company process to me is going on medical leave sometime in July. Now I feel even worse about possibly leaving but oh well.

Adolfo is out the rest of the year. Also looks like Basabe is out.

This is kind of the problem. There is no one else. And you would like to give the player more of a sample size to see if they can adjust back.

I don't believe they would either. Just pointing it out. Unfortunately, Jay seems to be the best option for RF right now since people are souring on Tilson and Cordell. Which is bizarre because this is what people have been wanting.

Jay is solid against lefties so a platoon of Tilson against righties and Jay against lefties works.

I would probably keep playing Tilson. I'm sure we will see some Jon Jay in RF soon.

What happened to Leury yesterday? I watched the whole game but did I miss something when I went to the bathroom?

And theres an easy solution: stick Collins at 1B so if there is an injury, you just shift him to catcher and have Rondon or whoever come off the bench to play 1B.

Win today and it looks promising. I'm predicting a split.

Yep.

To follow up with this, I have a second round of interviews with the company tomorrow. Very encouraging.
