Maton being our fifth place hitter/DH and Thaiss getting a ton of playing time over Lee aren't bingo card selections most would have gone with on March 1st. 

Another would be Jankowski playing nearly every day...

Also fwiw Omar Narvaez landed on his feet as well.

Venable ❤️ Jankowski

I’m starting to buy into @fathom’s comment that Jankowski might not even be the odd man out when Tauchman is activated.

Venable appears to love Jankowski, Maton, and Thaiss.

any chance that they release Vaughn before the end of the year?

I think there are 6 million reasons they will not do that. At least until very very late in the season.

Probably not since there isn't really anyone more interesting unless they want to see Vargas or Ramos there.

They're LHHs, and we've been getting a steady diet of RHPs. Thaiss has been hitting, and Maton has early power. What's not to love?

Jankowski.  🤣

The other two will no doubt slow down, but may as well play them while they are hot.

I'd rather just play Taylor against right handers. It's not like he hits them any worse than Jankowski.

Yeah might as well go better defender

Still in 1st place

Luis Robert has not homered in his last 40 games 

Anytime Robert wants to stop being worthless would be great.

I know we mention Yoan, but this is more reminiscent of how Timmy just suddenly lost all of his ability.

Hopefully, otherwise we are going to get an even worse return than the current status of the return for Cease and Santos.

At this rate he’s gonna be gone next offseason for nothing. That’s rough because you’re looking at no other assets that would bring anything back in return of significance.  That’s where the Cease/Santos/Fedde failures is brutal.

Looked fair to me?

Forgot about Fedde.  Vargas still looks terrible, but at least he just doubled!

Right down the plate
