Not even replacement level across the board. So we get some positive regression from Moncada and some health from TA and Eloy and you basically just erase that if Billy has to play 50 games. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but consider TWTW intangibles Billy brings! I joke, but only kind of. I totally get the argument that you want your backups to actually be *good backups*, but I'm still stumping for Billy as his role as a teammate helps outweigh his negative value at the plate. Now, if he's starting 50 games, yes that's a problem like you said, and our depth is very shallow. I agree on that. Just had to defend Billy's name as I think he has more value to this team that we can't quantify. I firmly believe a bad clubhouse does more harm to the team performance overall than one noodle-armed slapjack hitter that can't hit his own weight does. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing this means Gio throws a sim game to stay on rotation, and that we don't see him for another week. Was looking forward to seeing him throw a few innings.
