Napoli was brought in to hit lefties. That's it. He's always crushed LHP. I like the move. Plus not being an every day play should be easier on his hips. Wonder if the PTBNL is currently on the 40 man.

I take it that's a yes
I am just telling you what I think JD is thinking. I don't see what it hurts at this point since he didn't cost us anything in trade. Kind of like what we did with Josh.

We may simply just have to give them back some cash.

Kyle Seager is licking his chops with the Rangers coming to town and for some reason Iwakuma is pitching tonight instead of tomorrow? He owns the Rangers, but we got to Kazmir this week so maybe we can catch lightning in a bottle twice.

Just heard. Why? Can't catch and we don't need another 1b.
Agree. This makes no sense at all unless they trade Mitch and I am not trying to start a trade Mitch campaign.

Welcome back Nap! NAP-O-LEE! NAP-O-LEE.

Just wish we could still catch. We got too many 1B-DH types.

As good as been Mitch Is only sporting a .627 OPS against lefties this year. Napoli is still sporting an .845 OPS vs LHP this year.

Evening Gentlemen. Has Napoli joined the team in Seattle?

A little humor: Rosales explained how he got the #9 on his jersey. He said that was the number he had in little league playing for Jiffy Lube.

I guess then it may work if Napoli and Moreland are okay playing 1/2 the time. Some players have a hard time with that.

Mitch will still play more and they'll pinch hit for each other. Napoli will be happy to be hearing his name chanted again and should be happy to be playing for a contender.




Wait, did I just refer to the Rangers as a contender? :suspicious:

Get Cruz back and it will be like old times.
