  1. It's beyond "nuts." Abreu, Early, Jordan & Yoshida for Helsley & Sonny Gray
  2. This further emphasizes the need for an OF'er to be traded. Brez needs to take away this choice from Cora, ASAP! Plus, Mayer should play as near to FT as any regular. (We have Romy to play 2B, when he rests.) Ref to platoon with Yoshida at DH would free up all OF'ers, including Anthony to play FT.(If we trade Duran not Abreu, then Anthony plays RF v L and LF v R, or we keep Ref in RF vs L.)
  3. I agree. They'd have tried it, by now, if they had any hopes he could fill the 1B role while loosening up the OF logjam with one move.
  4. I agree on all of this. I do worry about our lack of a sure bet 1Bman going into 2026. Jordan offers one more possibility/choice.
  5. For two months? I would not give one from Abreu or JH Garcia. I might offer DHam or Grissom plus one from Bleis, Romero, Early or Sandlin. Even then...
  6. 21 Anthony .765 22 Mayer .677 24 Rafaela .791 26 Abreu .831 26 Narvaez .788 28 Romy .965 28 Duran .745 _____________ 25 Dobbins 4.13 (5th on team in IP) 25 Fitts 4.28 (34 IP) 26 Crochet 2.39 (1st IP) 26 Bello 3.27 (2nd IP) 27 Murphy 0.00 & Slaten 3.47
  7. It's not fine, when this is the best start the guy can give, and it happens once every 5 starts.
  8. There has been no talk of Duran at 1B, and as far as I know, no practice there. If he could just play one notch above Casas' D at 1B and near what Toro is giving us, it would solve a major roster/line-up issue and keep our line up strong and deep. It makes too much sense to happen. (It took us 5 years to force the issue on Devers, then we botched it.) 1. Duran 1B v R/ LF v L 2. Bregman 3B 3. Abreu v R (RF)/Romy v L (1B) 4. Story SS 5. Anthony LF v R/RF v L 6. Narvaez C 7. Yoshida v L (DH)/ Refsnyder v L (DH) 8. Mayer 2B 9. Rafaela CF
  9. He also signed IFAs Rafaela & Bello. Many of these draftees and IFA guys look better than the bigger named players he traded away.
  10. Thanks, cp. This will be my first summer in Maine without my parents. Both passed away in the last 6 months at ages 97 and 87. It's going to be strange and sad, but many siblings will be there (3 of my 5 sisters.)
  11. We gotta just keeping this one game at a time. No swollen heads.
  12. Thanks, but we've been there many times, and our daughter has the skinny.
  13. I'm off to Maine, tomorrow. Taking 6 days to drive with a stop for whitewater rafting in WV and 2 nights in NYC with our daughter. You may see a mix n match of my alter ego and moonslav. Glad we'll be on the road during the ASB. Leaving just when the Sox took over the last WC slot from SEA. 52-41 NYY 50-44 TBR 50-45 BOS (1/2 from TBR & 3 from NYY) -1.0 SEA at 48-45 -3.5 KCR & TEX -4.0 LAA & MIN -5.0 CLE -6.5 BAL (playing well, lately) Gotta keep taking them one game at a time. It would be nice to pass TBR, before the break. Maybe get 1-2 GB NYY, too.
  14. Yup. Remember last year, we struggled vs the CWS and other bad teams.
  15. Mayer should still get everyday ABs. No need to platoon him. FT 2B. Romy-Toro platoon at 1B. Ref-Yoshida platoon at DH. The tough question is OF: Duran LF Rafaela CF Abreu RF v R Anthony RF v L and maybe some CF vs R and LF v L & R, some DH. Just not enough ABs for him. We should make a trade, this weekend.
  16. Why are you so sure he belongs much lower? Besides, his career OPS is .700- just 15 points from the 2025 league average, and he's young and showing improvement in his approach, despite still having some major issues.
  17. Hardly quality. 6 IP and 5 hits, including 2 HRs and 3 BB.
  18. Duran, Abreu, Buehler, Hendriks, Valera & Paez for Painter, Abel & Castellanos ___________________ Painter, Romero, Early and Cespedes for Joe Ryan
  19. Yanks tied the Ms up in the bottom of the 9th. 5-5 in the 10th.
  20. KC with a 3 run job and Jh Garcia with 2 hits in the Woo loss. Grissom with 2 and Hickey 3. Mata and Stock got lit up.
