April 21, 20241 yr He didnt play for the Royals, its going to be 300 OPS Lopez for the rest of the year
April 21, 20241 yr If you can manage the 40 man to get him here, there's literally nothing to lose, but it is worth mentioning that he screams 4A splits. AAA career 282/.366/.456/.822 MLB career .242/.298/.354/.652
April 21, 20241 yr forgive my ignorance but do minor league teams scout their opponents to get the advantage in games the same as major league clubs do?

April 21, 20241 yr Good enough for a 2021 first place Sox team at least half the time, but not good enough for the 2024 version which may be the historical worst…ever. #Soxlogic

April 21, 20241 yr It’s doesn’t really matter either way, but Mendick and Pham aren’t saving this team from history. “HISTORY!!!”

AAA career 282/.366/.456/.822 MLB career .242/.298/.354/.652 Sadly, that MLB line would be an improvement to our offense. At .242, he would be 5th on the team. Benintendi is only seeing ABs because of his massive contract. Vaughn may not be signed to another contract unless he can bolster his hitting. He’s sitting at 50 points under the Mendoza line. Either of these guys could make an adjustment and hit a hot streak, but they’re lucky we’re so bad that they can try to hit their way out of it. 4 of our top 5 yesterday we’re hitting .170 or less. Let that sink in. Our 1, 2, 4, and 5 hitters were hitting between .153 and .170 with a combined 1 HR and 8 RBIs. Edited April 22, 20241 yr by tjp1684
April 22, 20241 yr Man, Mendick, Lee and Pham give us hope (to storm past the 20 win mark eventually). Bring 'em in the lineup every day, baby. Edited April 22, 20241 yr by greg775

Logic says that if Sheets is getting playing time in right, you don't need both Pillar and Grossman. Especially because Mendick can also play some OF. And Pham on the way. But this team is trying (not succeeding) to win and those two are two of the team's best hitters. So maybe Remillard? They wouldn't cut a SP from the 40-man, and the only relief pitcher is Horn. He's been getting obliterated so maybe it's worth a shot?
April 22, 20241 yr I'm glad they're giving Mendick a shot. It's clear he's gone through a swing or approach change so you might as well see if there's anything to it. Mendick is running a flyball rate over 50%, which is the highest he's had at any level of affiliated ball by a mile. Wouldn't it be nice if Eloy or Vaughn could lift the ball like that ?

They Sox DFA him in January to add Maldonado and were able to outright him to Charlotte.

In my opinion, he'd be a little crazy to as his easiest path back to the big is easily the Sox and will continue to play a key role for Charlotte. But the grass is always greener...we'll see.

I wish ReMVP was hitting better so you justify jettisoning Nicky Lopez, but unfortunately, he's putting up worse numbers than Naperville's Finest in Charlotte. But we should rejoice, for the prodigal son is returning and Haseley isn't around to murder him.
