  1. I didnt realize stroganoff was as unpopular as joba chamberlain on this forum
  2. I had a delicious crabcake in Alexandria a few months ago
  3. But sure, there has to be a place to play Hickey and see where he lands. Ive always been more excited about Jonafran, but we need to see who he is after that injury.
  4. The bar (run-production expectancy) is a lot higher when you move off catcher.
  5. Sure, but when catchers move to 1b, its usually (not always) a desperate attempt to save a plummeting prospect (Blake Swihart)
  6. he (hickey) doesnt have the ops to play 1b and is a borderline prospect at this point, to me
  7. Id eat a crabcake right now
  8. well, maybe he needs to trade one of those gloves for an oven mitt and whip us up some stroganoff
  9. what you making/ordering us for dinner tonight?
  10. Maybe its me, but I find Casas to be a streakier bat than even Yoshida.
  11. Im not even sure theres such a thing as a second baseman anymore.
  12. they are not rigidly slating one starter/position, they are keeping versatility and prioritizing flexibility.
  13. This was better than the argument I was going to come up with that its fine, so Ill just hop on this. Its fine. Its all fine.
  14. some most guys can play multiple positions and be fine.
  15. Or Devers pushes Bregman to 2b
  16. You are allowed to play multiple positions, and its the way the league is trending. There are articles everywhere about it.
  17. this isnt directed at you because I know you understand but - its good to have options and flexibility.
  18. And you think that playing Breg at 3b vs 2b is the difference between .574 and .393? And also I said hard, not impossible.
  19. I agree and dont forget , they went out and made hugely impactful changes to the mlbpa because it just made too much sense to keep someone back as long as possible (so you have them cheap through their prime years). If it made sense to rush call-ups, they wouldnt have had to add the draft pick rewards for calling up prospects before you absolutely have to. People just want to see the youth
  20. The italicized part cant be undone. I dont disagree with the idea, just the urgency of it. SOrry to sound like a broken record but wait and see.
  21. Similarly , starting the season with Bregman at 2b isnt the end of the world either. Not implying its ideal or how it will certainly go down. Its quite hard to ruin the season in April (injuries aside)
  22. Good points, but Im would add one big caveat to this and that is (to your entire well thought out post): * *at this point in time One of my things is flexibility and not making decisions before you have to. We simply dont know how Casas will look coming off that weird injury, how Devers shoulder will behave, if Campbell complicates by forcing his way into the infield, how far we go next year. What if we get to the ALCS and lose and we prove to be close despite carrying Casas all year who never fully re-found his groove (not saying this is anything more than one of many possibilities). Can it happen? Short answer is yes. Will it happen? Short answer is maybe. Should it happen? short answer is things will change between now and the time when its time to make this decision, and any opinions we have on it now will be dated by then
  23. I think hes a solid #4 when healthy and I think its a loss. Not an insurmountable loss, but how many starters do we use in a given year? 10? It hurts the depth.
