Makes sense. Charlotte needs bodies.

Omg so cool. Probably the coolest.

Hopefully trade him at value and re-sign him to DH when hes a free agent.

It's weird because I often thought about helping family. Not selling a ticket to them but have told my sister anytime her and her bf wanted to go to a movie, I could always help them out and go grab a free ticket for them so they'd only have to pay for one.

On the moviepass thing, people would go get a movie ticket everyday and actually sell them. Yes, some people are scum enough to do that.

Agreed. Calling him up in September and having him start next season on the MLB team is kinda dumb. Call him up before September or just wait, like you said.

Machado's been playing short. Getting Machado would be a huge upgrade for them. And if they wasted the resources to get him (if they were to trade Russell and then have no SS going into the off-season), I assume they would be more in on re-signing Machado than signing Harper.

Ok with losing this one. 1) this season doesn't matter 2) and most importantly, Pirates are a game up of the Cubs.

Adam Engel is the only one who should be bunting for hits with that average.

Yes, I too am curious.

Amen to that.

1. Discussed on first page. 2. I only knew situation, didn't know he was safe due to listening to radio (also discussed on this page) 3. Eh if the catcher has a great arm like Contreras and the guy on 2nd's secondary is too big due to the bunt attempt, yes it does happen 4. NL ball is stupid anyway so whatevs

Sox currently have the worst record and #1 pick in the 2019 draft.

I didn't know that Davidson had looked safe. Up until my comment, no one mentioned that. I'm only listening to the radio feed and knew the situation. Edit: which I guess is why my initial comment was a question ha

So have pitcher swing away?

Ha fair enough.

Why are we blaming Ricky for a pitcher not getting a bunt down? Your secondary lead on the bases is going to be bigger on a bunt so you can get to the base.

And it was a basket shot...certainly not a sure thing.

Agreed.

Out of the healthy current regulars on the team, he has the second highest OBP (Davidson team leader), so in a way it does.

Just to be clear I wasn't suggesting Eloy shouldn't go to AAA. Was just stating a fact that not everyone needs to go to AAA.

Nice hindsight.

The better talent is in AA. AAA is a level for depth pieces for the MLB team and other AAAA type players. AAA is usually just a final tune up and I don't think it is always necessary to have to go there depending on the player.

Ok...how do you explain the non-rebuilding years where they tried to win between 2013-2016? They literally tried the way you are describing.

Looks like he was running in towards the play at the plate. 1B would be cutoff man on the hit to the outfield and potential play at the plate. Although the ball definitely wasn't far enough to warrant a cutoff man.
