Why is Wade DHing with Pedo in the field?

At this point, imho, even if we win out to the deadline, we should still be sellers, or at worst, stand pat. But if they don’t turn Rodon into prospects, that is malpractice, imho.

 

[Stokes1931]

Runners on 1st and 3rd and two outs, and La Stella rung up on a check swing. Perfect.

I often wonder why Kapler runs out the defensive alignments that we see.

With a 5-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Wednesday, the Giants finished off their first 0-7 road trip since 1985.

Because our manager's ouija board told him to...

They will get only one for him, let's hope it's a good one. The whole league knows the Giants have to trade him.

A light hitting second baseman who cannot field the position sounds about right...

Or another outfielder/DH that doesn't have the defensive skills to even DH...

I doubt they will get anyone who is ML ready but snark noted.

The whole league knew the Cubs were trading Bryant and they got 2 good prospects.

Rodon will be the best SP rental on the market. He will fetch a decent haul, me thinks.
