It would be stupid to sell even if we're like 55-49 after the next two series, unless Devers goes down or something. Even then, we'd probably be ~2 GB in the Wild Card, KC and Minnesota are both mediocre, and we'd only need to pass one of them. Casas and Hendriks are looming too - just gotta make the playoffs and who knows what'll happen. I don’t think this affects how you should approach the deadline, but I personally don’t think we will see Casas until September. I think Casas is a huge part of the equation honestly. Major upgrade between he and Dom Smith.

Marquez was really good, a shame he hasn't been able to come back

2 Ks already against another lefty, this one who sports a 6 k/9.

I can’t stand Westbrook in the line up. Nick York is a RHB tearing it in AAA. Just don’t understand it. Unless they’re afraid it might affect his trade value.

I’d do Meidroth first but the point remains Either or would be a significant upgrade over Westbrook. Personally Hamilton should be starting now. Enough with the left right match ups. His speed when he gets on is a weapon. He stole second and third yesterday.

Major upgrade between he and Dom Smith. Ah him not returning soon is part of the deadline equation. What I meant is that the approach at the deadline should be unchanged when trying to acquire a RHH power bat.

If we just let society ostracize left-handed people as it had for centuries we wouldn’t be in this situation having to face these unhittable southpaws and their 89 mph fastballs

His speed when he gets on is a weapon. He stole second and third yesterday. Yorke would not help this team with it LHP troubles. He needs more time in the Woo to figure that out. Sogard or Meidroth would be fine for now until Grissom is ready.

Baseball really wasn’t meant to be played here. The pitches just don’t move right.

Sogard or Meidroth would be fine for now until Grissom is ready. I totally agree about Westbrook. I am not happy about Gonzalez and his under .400 slugging percentage at first either. Unfortunately, we have already seen Dalbec and have no other internal right-handed hitting candidate for first.
