July 17, 20196 yr Author The guy has been raking all season in AAA, fair to give him a little taste of the bigs as a reward. Plus Goins is a great defensive SS, and Leury has not been good there and we can put him back in CF. Goins will be gone when Timmy returns.

Of course, it doesn’t include Luis Robert, the Q trade, the 17/18/19 drafts (we all know the Burger story), Gonzalez/Rutherford/Walker, but WOW and not exactly in a good way.

So of course it doesnt include their actual prospects but you wanted to be critical just for the sake of being critical. Makes sense.

Spencer Adams was #10! Jacob May and Michael Ynoa made the cut. Pretty sure both of those guys are already out of professional baseball and it looks like Adams will be joining them soon. I really hope JR is willing to throw down 300 to 400 million dollars in FA contracts over the next few offseasons. Relying solely on prospects is a recipe for disaster.
July 17, 20196 yr Seeing a new guy is always entertaining for a few games. Nothing else to watch unless you have been anxiously awaiting the return of Castillo.

Yeah, most teams turn their #10 ranked prospect into MLB superstars. The hilarious thing about being critical of this is that 2 of these guys are all-star caliber players lol. The 3rd looked great before TJ and the 4th is still in the big leagues showing flashes at times but lacking consistency. Edited July 17, 20196 yr by Look at Ray Ray Run
July 17, 20196 yr Let the Ryan Goins era begin!! Who??? Great another marginal player called up......like we need another AAAA player on this team

We should be thankful we had those three guys to trade or we’d currently be on a 10-15 year rebuild and selling off Luis Robert after he hit arbitration eligibility to the highest bidder.
