Holy s%*#......okay. Dropping Elko makes less sense optioning Vaughn but okay. We gonna try one of Lee, Quero or Teel at 1b? Lee has gotta get the call soon. 

IMO wouldn't be the worst idea to let Lee and Quero work in there. Teel imo can stay in AAA until mid summer.

Worth pointing out that Lee and Thaiss have experience at other positions so maybe they have more flexibility beyond just catchers.

Isn’t all their value, if any, tied up to their throwing or receiving?  I don’t want to see those guys play first. I bet we see Sosa full time now.

Your 1b rotation appears to be Sosa and Vargas with Rojas everyday at 2b/3b and Vinnie Capra as your key reserve. Palacios is an everyday player with Tauchman and Slater platooning mostly and Benintendi as the fulltime DH. Okay.

Yeah. There’s not really value in having 3 so it’s either they deal Thaiss or Lee, option Lee, or I guess option Quero (I hope not).

Lee is staying down I believe

Seeing as how Vaughn isn’t even a good enough athlete to play first base, the fact that he was tried in the outfield just gets more and more insane as time passes.

Plenty here were pleased that at 1st it appeared he could play LF I got in lots of arguments round here back then arguing against Vaughn in the OF and when he was scuffling at the plate.

I still get in lots of arguments but not about Vaughn.

I just can’t believe Palacios survived the purge.

The OF are now Robert, benetendi, Slater, tauchman, Taylor and Palacios?

Do they really need 6? Unless there is an imminent trade its weird. 

But the true question is 

 

Who's on first? 😁

I guess Sosa is at 1B and Benintendi and Tauchman see a good amount of time at DH?

For sure but there's plenty of full time catchers that broke in as part time catchers. I just want to see them all get 20-30 PA a week.

Some of you guys are absolutely delusional. Vaughn is here because Getz is a coward and can't tell his boss he wasted 5.85 million. He has no trade value. 

That would make sense if JR didn't approve of that contract too. Maybe he even insisted on it .Maybe Vaughn golfs with JRs sons.
