I wonder if he doesn't try to catch some.

We needed a RH bat so it makes sense.

So anyone who hits RH is an upgrade? Absurd

Guess he might but doesn't seem reasonable

He physically is unable to catch.....like, at all.

Honestly don't know when was the last time he caught a game for anyone? It might have been with us actually.

 

[DT LUNA]

Does anyone think Banny will rotate he and Mitch? I don't and the bench is all thats left that I see.

 

[saddles]

We need a RH bat that can play.

Beggars can't be choosers. He may be the best option that can clear waivers.

Where are they going to put him but the bench? 2.5 games out for a WC is not classifying us as beggars imo

Do you happen to know what MM splits are against RH/LF? What about Prince's?

Since Nap is hitting a robust .207 with 40 RBI (which isn't bad considering his BA) his splits can't mean much.

Why not let Rua get some time at 1st?

Deal is official.... Mike Napoli and cash for a player to be named later or cash.... The Rangers are basically getting him for nothing

 

[Justinkm83]

How about MM playing LF for Choo against LHers with Napoli at 1B?

 

[DT LUNA]

I think he will platoon with Moreland.

I think he will platoon with Moreland.

But would you knowing he has a .207 avg not to mention giving up defense at 1st

 

[fordman84]

Just heard Nap is back! Been away all day.

GREAT day. What did we give up?

edit: See for cash and PTBNL. GREAT get

Napoli has been known to get hot at the end of seasons and is comfortable here. I don't hate the move.

Nor I just not quite absorbing the logic unless FO is going for the whole enchilada.

He does have an OPS of .845 against left handers.

I take it that's a yes

 

[saddles]

Napoli has an OPS against lefties about .200 points higher than Mitch.
