Looks like he's played 2B, SS and OF. Certainly a much better option than Aledmys. And he's 28, so has some gas in the tank.texasaggie2015 said:
Amed Rosario DFA'd. He's WAY better than Aledmys Diaz and would be an instant upgrade. Go get him, Dana.

Would be great, but no way Seattle passes on him to get to us
I doubt he'll make it very down the waiver wire.texasaggie2015 said:

Yeah, I'd only put the Yanks, Red Sox, and Dodgers clearly ahead of Philly in terms of popularity. They're in the tier with the Braves and Cubs IMO.OPAG said:Ahh, hmmm. Um,Quote:
But I'm sure that doesn't apply to the Astros playing the 87-win Phillies in 2022 instead of the 101 win Braves, 101 win Mets or the 111 win Dodgers, right?
you seem to be forgetting the difference between the Diamondbacks and the Phillies. LOL.
As for Arlington, i think they'll bounce back next year and be somewhere between this year's team and last year's. Getting deGrom and Carter back will help a lot.
Yainer Diaz at 1B for the first time this year. He started 7 games there last year.

At some point you have to stop playing Chas, right? Feel bad for him but he is LOST at the plate.
Also, for those of you in the know.....is there a reason Whitley hasn't been called up?

Definition of insanity at this point
I guess Zach was hitting too well and making McCormick look bad. Have to sit him for a while until he cools back down and stops showing up the veterans. Zach should have known better than to do that after watching what happened to Joey when he was first brought up.The Porkchop Express said:7, 8, 9 hitting .200, .087, .063 in August.EastCoastAgNc said:Yainer Diaz at 1B for the first time this year.

I'm assuming they don't wanna play Yordan on the turf but not sure why Dezenso wouldn't play LF instead of Chas.
That dude is a Maldy-esq auto out.

The bottom 3 in that lineup. Yikes.
We're going to need 1 or 2 of that 3 to work it out before the post season
And pray we get Tucker back

Yordan Alvarez just broke another Jumbotron. He hit the screen on the right and now it’s glitchy. 😆 pic.twitter.com/bG2CT9Seqp

gotta have the pinch-hitters ready to go for 7, 8, and 9
all right, looking for 6 innings from Kikuchi vs. a depleted Rays lineup

So I guess no JumboTron tonight
Would it look weird to pitch hit for all three of them first time they come up in the order?W said:

We need a Yordan photoshop
if the bases are loaded...why not
Jake, Chas, and Dubon have combined for 3 outfield assists this season
Tucker had 4 assists before he was injured

Jake might lead the league in extra bases taken against his arm.

That's because NO ONE runs on Jake and Big Puddin'

Yep, stay away from Yandy Diaz and Brandon Lowe (both destroy lefties) and no one else should be able to do much

Wasn't the sentiment on this board that Jake plays an "elite" centerfield?

Do they get a pay raise when they're promoted within the minors? Or is it an all encompassing minors salary?
I have been a big "Jake can run but he can't make good decisions" guy but I have to admit he's played much better this year. You can't fix his arm but he's done a much better job getting behind balls to throw in one motion instead of double clutching and he's not throwing to the wrong base anymore.tjack16 said:Mathguy64 said:W said:

Not a board sentiment. A fact.
