Thanks for helping us out with that swing out of the strike zone on 3-2.

LeClerc already had him twice. Justice delivered by the baseball gods maybe.

I’m sure the conversation was hey these guys don’t know your stuff. Let it loose.

 

[saddles]

Unless the guys we got fall off the map it does exactly what you think it should do in this sell sell environment


Big Profar fan but real bad timing

I was always been in favor of signing Profar long term and trading Odor for whatever we could get for him. I am not going to let hindsight change the opinion that I had 6 months ago. No one saw Profar doing this badly and how he is doing should not change the opinion of the trade. Good trades work out bad sometimes and bad trades work out good sometimes.

If someone was in favor of trading him for the sell-off-assets reasoning that you referred to then they should be in favor of selling off any asset not under control 2 to 3 years from now. Profar did fall into that category, unfortunately. He might not have been in that category had they treated him better and not expected to get him at a discounted rate.

 

[romeo212000]

Ugh. I hate first and third with two outs.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

Blown save

Retraction

 

[romeo212000]

And that’s why.

 

[DT LUNA]

Has to stop.

Come on. The injury was the main factor. Bad timing. The extension hurt him but he was still an expiring asset

 

[Nightcrawler]

It also seemed Odor did not run to 1st like I normally have seen him do. Makes me wonder if he is 100%.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least. I think he rushed back ASAP because Santana was doing so well.

 

[saddles]

He is a slugger but needs to become a hitter

I am not sure what he is lacking, but he has been lacking it off and on for quite some time.

Good chance.

He’s lacking something and the preferential treatment is very disappointing. We don’t baby other guys the way we do Odor.

They all will expire if not signed.

His injury is ancient history now.

It is his contract that keeps him in the lineup.

They have to be able to sign guys without letting that force the guy into the lineup for the life of the contract. That is a poor way to run a team.

His injury and his entrance into FA and the alleged window in the midst of a rebuild are completely relevant

Then you are in favor of trading Minor. Pence, Cabrera and Choo as well?

The injury was years ago now. Ancient history.
