September 16, 20241 yr Put young players in positions they can have success with good matchups and let The vets take the lumps.
September 16, 20241 yr They are definitely bringing Yoan back next season. Why else would they be playing him.

I just mean in general. ‘This player is bound to produce better results in your quality organization, as his performance here was effected by our toxic environment and general incompetence”

He cannot stay on the field. Someone will take a flyer on him for $7M next year.
September 16, 20241 yr Oh boy, can't wait to see Moncada's meaningless ABs in the name of stunting anyone else from playing the position in the last 2-3 weeks of games that don't matter.

While Vargas is under contract, I think I would rather see literally anyone at 3B than him. Moncada, Ramos, Colas, Sheets, Crochet. Anyone. So if they're robbing Ramos of at-bats, at least it won't be Vargas. Or it probably will.

If teams look at how Eloy is doing in Baltimore they'll probably pass on Moncada. If he can get 5 to 10 mill a year, his agent should be agent of the year.

September 16, 20241 yr Has anyone told Grady that Vargas isn't really a 3Ber anymore? It really does a great disservice to put Vargas at 3B, and then play Ramos at DH.
September 17, 20241 yr Author Stone just said on the broadcast that "there isn't much that Yoan can do in the next two weeks to prove he belongs on this roster"
