Pompey is worthless IMO

 

He has reached non-prospect status for me despite his age.

 

Always injured, weak head, hasn't shown any progress. Scrub

Huh the kids been rushed, he is only what 23 years old?

 

Where are the rest of our kids his age playing ?

 

If Raji can figure it out so can he, plus where was Batz and EE playing at 23 years of age!

 

Good Grief, he already as more upside then Goins who is on this team

 

How exactly was he rushed? He's been in the minors since 2010. Despite having decent raw power, absolutely none has shown up in game, with an atrocious .060 ISO against AAA pitching. He's a 4th OF and pinch runner, that's his ceiling at this point.

1. He doesn't have to hit for power lol

 

2. He still will become an everyday OF for us, most likely next season. Kid can hit and has speed. If he could focus a lot better he would be a better MLB player than Pillar.

Vogelbach, probably.

 

That's actually a bit interesting, but we probably don't match up well. He'll probably be moved for an elite reliever or something.

He doesn't have to hit 20 HR with a .200 ISO, but yes, he does have to hit for some power. You can't have a slap-hitting OF with a sub.-700 OPS playing every day in a corner spot, that doesn't cut it.

I didn't realize how bad Alford has been this year. No power and a 34% K-rate at 22 in A-ball. That's really, really gross.

Pretty sure it's his nagging injury. Someone said he is playing with a brace now.

Someone get their doc to write Pompey an adderall prescription so that we can have another 4 WAR outfielder plz.

He had a knee injury that would have required surgery, but he decided to play through it. Then he was in a collision in the outfield in June that injured his neck and gave him a concussion. And he's played through it all essentially. He's not healthy.

Bolster the pen somehow, maybe grab a starter and hope everybody stays healthy. There isn't much to trade from to reinforce the team.

Anyone in the Twins bullpen

 

Brad Hand

 

Josh Edgin would be a nice pen arm target. The Mets pen is full, and he's controllable for a few years. He'd also give us another lefty.

 

Josh Edgin and Trevor May, both would likely be cheap.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Last year we got a 2 WAR position player for nothing as well as an effective reliever, also for nothing.

 

I'd like to see similar deals this year. No need to break the prospect bank.

I'd trade Bautista straight up for Archer.

 

Rays have no use for a rental bat this year

 

(Of course I would do it if you could in theory)

 

And you were probably kidding anyway

Conveniently we don't need much

 

With Bautista and Tulo back the lineup and bench are good

 

One more solid BP arm might be all I'd target

 

Mostly we just need to keep fingers crossed that the starters stay healthy and that Tulo and Martin keep hitting.

He is dating someone from my high school who is certainly not worthless.

 

She's not your type though, I reckon.

So does Carerra stay in RF and Bautista DH when he comes back? Carerra has been a better hitter than Smoak this year..

 

He should. Smoak's defense hasn't even been as good this year as it usually is, and Edwin's been better than usual in his small sample there.

Nice hustle, girl. If he can scratch out a journeyman career, there's decent money to squeeze out of him. Tell her to poke a hole in the condom.
