Love me some hops, but today was a *****. Had to break out the hard stuff.
FISHER DINGER!
Fisher > Aoki
Sayonara Aoki
$20 says the Rangers pick up Aoki if we drop him.
So if we drop Aoki, do the Rangers pick him up. You know how much they love our sloppy seconds in the OF.
Damnit. Posted too slow.

That has to be the move right? Reddick back and drop Aoki for Fischer
Or is it Beltrans turn to take a trip to the DL?

Game. Good way to bounce back for the start of this series. Go out and win tomorrow and put this terrible two weeks behind us.
All 3 OFs hit homers
Man I'm done.
Can we get a blow out tomorrow so I can be in bed early?

Fisher will be going back down. Some of y'all need to realize this isn't a video game. Not gonna paying him 5.5 million to drop him.
Fisher will go back to AAA and continue to get better and he will be back if there's another injury or when rosters expand.
I'm just as high on Fisher as everyone else. His swing looks so natural(reminds me of Josh Hamilton).
I agree. While Fisher is better than Aoki, making the move to drop Aoki would shorten your outfield depth substantially. Aoki is still an average of above average outfielder right now, and dropping those guys just won't happen. Fisher will find another opportunity soon enough.
Aoki is still a huge asset. In the playoffs, you need a guy who can go deep into counts and provide reliable at bats off the bench.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
In the end you guys are right, and I do understand not overreacting to Fisher's small sample size.
However, I just hate seeing a guy excel and do what he's asked only to be sent back down.
You know...Hey Derek you did great and we really like what we saw. Here's your bus ticket to Fresno.

I totally agree with yal too and the obvious best play is hanging on to Aoki. Awesome for Fisher to get a taste of the show.
I'm so scared we are going to trade Fisher. But sending him down right now is the right move. Aoki isn't great but I agree he's a player you want to hold on to.
Sadly I think we might've seen the last of fisher. That was a great audition week for him to be the main piece or co-main piece in a trade. Would love if we could hold onto him and still get a pitcher.
With Tucker right behind I'm OK if we lose Fisher.
I'd rather lose Fisher than Martes.
