You are right, but at least I didn't suggest that he works out as catcher in Charlotte. My thought about trying Baldy at 1B was that he is an infielder so he could field grounders, he is a tall and flexible athlete that could reach to catch throws, and as far as his offense he had 3 HR and almost a 4th while he was up here. I think if he focused on hitting LH and maybe cut down on his swing after he has 2 strikes, he could boost his average. He is also fast and would be a base stealer unlike some of the big guys. This team is so bad, you have to think outside the box.

June 3, 20251 yr Would you rather have Kyle Teel playing 150 games at 1B during a season or 120 games at C & DH? I think his bat moving to 1B full time will result in a longer and more successfully offensive career. Quero and Lee are your catchers.

June 4, 20251 yr Not enough buzz about what Ryan Cusick is doing in AA this year: After last nights 7.0 ip 6 k 0 er outing, he’s sitting at a 2.88 era after 10 app. While still holding his typical 94 mph avg FB (t98), he’s added a sinker to the mix at 8.8 vb and a slider at 85 mph. pic.twitter.com/1hLQcIl19Q — Cam Lanzilli (@LanzilliCam) June 8, 2023

For an organization that is so stingy with money they sure do like to waste it constantly. Edited June 4, 20251 yr by T R U

Vaughn: .273/.333/.424 - .758 OPS Elko: can't find milb splits, but he stunk after being sent back down for a bit and had been turning it back on lately Montgomery: Stunk, went down to Arizona to get fixed, came back and was hammering the ball, had a couple bad games after that, then got hurt (hit by a pitch on his knee) Edited June 4, 20251 yr by almagest
June 4, 20251 yr I like the waiver pick-up. Former first round pick, only 25 years old, big and can touch 99. Really like this pick-up. The kind of roster churning that should be done. ERA under 3, 10k/9 in the minors last year as a reliever so i would think they leave him there. Similar profile to Burke so maybe they try him as SP. Seemingly needs to throw strikes Edited June 4, 20251 yr by Buehrle>Wood
