  1. Our 40 man roster AAA Pitching options are limited: Samaniego (just demoted) Uberstine Tolle Bennett (Sandoval on rehab) Others who would need to be added to the 40 first: Kahnle Guerrero Song Gamboa, Keller, martinez, Sweet & Webb
  2. I expected this, before the Durbin trade. Had we signed Bregman, maybe a Mayer/Romy platoon at 2B.
  3. I'm not sure Romy had earned Cora's trust as a FT'er, despite his slightly better numbers vs RHPs than Abreu's vs LHPs. Cora went with Abreu as the FT RF'er, but maybe the plan was for Romy to platoon at 2B and maybe DH some, but the DH/OF slot was already overloaded. Romy splits in 2025: .978 v L/.718 v R in 185 PAs (Romy faced more RHPs than LHPs in '25.) Cora went with Abreu after these 2025 splits: .676 v L in 68 PAs) /.808 v R
  4. 3 more pluses: Jason Delay 1.125 Vinny Capra 1.041 Mickey Gasper .982 3 starting out badly: Nelly Taylor .174 Nate Yuten .276 GRod .385 ___________________ Pitchers: Devin Futrell .171 OPS Against Jake Bennett .289 Juan Valera .476 Bad starts: 1.141 Luis Cohen 1.008 Kyle Keller .951 Patrick Halligan
  5. Agreed. He's doing much better with POR than after his late season call up in 2025- both small sample sizes.
  6. Oviedo to 60 Day IL. Crawford returned from rehab without being activated. I Coffey to AAA. Allmer to AA. Futrell to A+ D Reyes added to A- from extended ST'ing
  7. These results don't mean he wasn't the intended major return piece.
  8. It's amazing that when you look at the runs scored stat, it's always exactly the same as the team's runs scored.
  9. He'd be fine as a #6bat vs LHPs and a #7bat vs RHPs, but we don't have enough good hitters to make this happen. He needs to play 2B... starting yesterday.
  10. It is one stat that seems to jive closely to runs scored- better than BA, SLG, HRs, ISO...
  11. I think Durbin was the centerpiece of the trade- not the comp pick.
  12. Using options doesn't matter. Of course we should call him up, the second we think he's ready.
  13. Indeed, and when his "high need" area is his bat, this is a good sign. He got off to a pretty good start last year and stalled... .824 first half .623 2nd half However, he was promoted twice and was making adjustments and facing tougher pitchers near the end of 2025. .804 A-> .709 A+> .685 AA The kid was in FCL to start the 2024 season, so reading too much into second half drops may not be valid.
  14. Where do you fins this info? (and thanks.)
  15. So then the Devers trade was okay?
  16. One clue is that the name Rafaela has not been uttered once.
  17. It didn't have to be Abreu for Paredes. There were surely other options.
  18. After getting drilled in his first start, Ziehl pitched a nice game: 5 IP 4H 0ER 2BB 6K. Arias is 2 for 4 w 2BB and 4 runs scored, so far. Godbout, White and Guzman have homered for GRE, so far.
  19. Rookie Kevin McGonigle & Tigers agree to $150M/8 extension.
  20. Don't look now, but the MLB OPS is .701. Anthony is up to .724. Rafaela is still above the norm at .766. Masa continues to do well (.852). Wong is over .900 in a smaller sample size, while IKF and Story jumped over the .500 OPS line. Early keeps getting the job done (2.29 ERA.)
  21. How bad do you need to be doing, this early in the season, to homer, double and walk, but just get your OPS up to .565? (Answer: .471 after 17 games by Story.)
  22. I'm all for playing the hot hand, and playing Masa more further exposes the big winter failure of keeping 4 OF'ers when we had other needs. What makes it worse is that we had the same issue last winter.
