And won't he be happy when that day comes; he might actually go to a contender next year!Dyson out for the season. Maybe played his last game as a Mariner.
Perfect Dip can trade them for AAAA pitching during the off season.
The Good News:
Custer graduated from West Point
The Bad News:
He was last in class at West Point...just saying.
Oh, but of course that's how it'll end up. Heaven forbid someone with actual talent should be signed up to lead the way on this team...Greg JohnsVerified account @GregJohnsMLB 32m32 minutes ago
Can confirm that Mariners GM Jerry Dipoto is in Japan scouting this week. Pretty safe bet he'll get good look at two-way star Shohei Ohtani.
-------------------------
He will end up with a washed up pitcher on his last arm...but controllable.
Zunino has had big moments...few and far between, but productive at times which is more than he has in the past. This version may not be All-Star caliber but it is definitely usable.
Haniger has come back around and has been the MVP of late. My only issue is that I don't know which version he really is? I hope he is the beginning of the season and of late version because that is a nice OF to have around.
Gamel is still an enigma to me. Not sure who he really is either. I mean Heredia is who he is, a go for broke hitter with a mean uppercut at the plate who goes all out and is fearless though flawed, but Gamel? Not sure yet.
Good news, Paxton and Felix will be back next week!
Zunino is 5th in WAR and 7th in WRC+ among catchers. Likely won't justify a 3rd overall pick but his season this year is definitely solid. I at least feel ok about him for once going into next year. Still would like a more useable backup tho.
I'm not an expert but Haniger just looks like a guy I can see succeeding. His regression was very clearly just regression. He was still doing things okay from what it looked like. I think Servais needs to just keep him in the 2 spot.
I however am not a real believer in Gamel. I would need to see him hit for a little more power. His fielding metrics aren't great and his hot streak was due to an astronomically high BABIP. I think platooning him with Heredia would be ok. Leaves one OF spot to address this winter. Preferably a CF
