We need a sad face like button.

That sucks, specialist is never a good thing

Usually when I get two sucks its a good thing, but apparently not in this case.

I am not knowledgeable about Maybin to have an opinion, is he worse than Nayquin?

Had a higher OPS in 2018. He was pretty bad in Spring Training, which is why the Giants let him go.

They mentioned this during the broadcast yesterday. They made it sound like it's routine and they just want to make sure they get it right--but it's not like you can trust them.

It's not hard to call a shot on Lindor having a rough season. Baseball players need spring training or it's an uphill climb. He didn't get one, and if the Indians are smart they'll hold him out until it's summer. Even when Lindor does come back, it's going to be a month of getting into the swing of things.

I'm expecting this team to take off in July hopefully.

Team is boned.

 

[BMAN]

Why the fuck did we give up Yandy? Homered.

 

[Ohio]

Dumping Yandy and E-Gon for nothing was incredibly short sighted. Both of those guys are significantly better than half our starters on Opening Day.

This offseason was such a colossal failure.

It's really fucking difficult to feel positive about anything related to this team right now.

 

[Urban]

We are really upset about Erik Gonzalez? Christ guys take a step back from the ledge

 

[BMAN]

I honestly have no clue why we traded them. Bauers and Luplow better mash.

Didn't I get ripped for saying Diaz would be at least a .280 type of hitter? We actually essentially traded EE and Yandy for Santana and Bauers. Age wise probably a good trade, but Bauers is super young still.

Erik Gonzalez +the 2 A ball players for Luplow and Moroff actually made sense because we had no RH bats in the OF and Moroff defensively was equalish to Gonzo. Luplow has high esteem with a fair amount of scouts, but never has had much of a chance to play in the bigs. We shall see here soon about if we made the right moves.

Yandy wasn’t dumped for nothing. Bauers could be just as good, if not better.

EGon is...meh. I wouldn’t lump him in with Yandy. He’s a replacement level player holding a place in Pittsburgh for Kevin Newman.

Probably turn into a lis francs issue. Worst case scenario.

Tito hated him
