CarGo anyone?

Obviously not high price/long term, but for the right deal, him in our park for 81 games, he could put up some stats.

Haven't even heard what he is asking for.

More like CarBlows!  Or CarNoVas.

Escape Rooms need to be added to GRF at the rate things are disintegrating...

Was just going to post this.  Thanks.

Pretty weird to me that people are worried about winning 70 games instead of 65...no need to even look at these mediocre vets, they aren’t helping anything.

I say lose as many games as humanly possible, setting the record for losses would be my goal. Embarrass the FO and hope for change...+ having the #1 overall pick seems like the only way we’ll ever have a shot at getting a true impact bat

Boom, I've been calling this since we've signed Machado that they will get CarGo.

 

"We've coveted Carlos for a long period of time, and are excited to add him to the 40 man roster.  He will help mentor our young players and help build this roster into winning multiple championships."

I can picture it perfectly.

Yep. 2019 is obviously another tank year. 2020 most likely as well. 

Let Palka and Delmonico get at bats in the outfield. Cargo serves no purpose on a tanking team.

Your heart’s not in it anymore, Mr. Hahn.

I couldn't give this a harder no.

His jersey will say MaCarGo and wear #13. He'll play 3rd. We will be none the wiser.

Hard pass

maybe about 4 or 5 years ago sure

HeHateMe would be the better choice...

.728 OPS away from Coors in his career.  And road OPSs of less than .650 the last 2 years.  I wouldn't read to much into this for a lot of guys, but for an aging vet that has showed decline anyways, this is a huge red flag to me.

Yeeeeeeeeahup. So it goes.

If we're talking about another over the hill lefty outfielder to go with Jay, I'd say Span.

I felt like this before when I was pissed off at the team, but losing 100 games just to embarrass the front office is wildly counterproductive. To lose 100 games, Anderson, Moncada, Eloy, Lopez, Giolito... everybody would have to suck bad, and that’s not good for any of us. 

Hard pass.  At this point, roll with with marginal young guys we have.  The only position player FAs I have any interest in are Harper (not happening) and Marwin.  But even Marwin seems unecessary at this point.  Let Palka, Delmonico, Engel, Cordell and Leury get the OF at bats that aren't going to Eloy.  Trade Jon Jay as soon as humanly possible.

I'd rather go after marwin for LF and platoon tbh. No one over 30, they don't offer even much upside if they outperform.

Marwin is turning 30 on March 14th.  Regardless, I don’t get the love for him.
