What a play man....Espinial

[Jaysareus]

Bad throw by guerrero

[BlueRocky]

That’s my boy Espy

[jaysguy44]

Wow

[InvincibleTiger]

Espinal!

[Spanky99]

Ballgame... sweep these f***ers, we're home now!

[EdwinsParrot]

espy wow!

[5ToolPhenom]

What a catch! What a game! What a day!

 

I've said before that I don't see this team contending because their lack of pitching, but Berrios is a damn BIG acquisition. Hopefully these guys can get on a run and sneak into a WC spot... Stranger things have happened!

[Eat My Shatkins]

That slimy f*** Dyson tried to BABIP his way on base like lucky dipshit he always is but Espy wasn't having none of that!

[DigitalRock]

I think we should just walk Dyson every Ab and we sweep them.

Or don't throw him a strike and he'll likely get himself out

[ShowtimeBelli]

Out of town scoreboard blows tonight

[BCZ]

Espinal should be the everyday starter at 3B for now. Biggio and Grichuk should be platooning.

 

f*** that Biggio needs consistent playing time to truly develop... he's too young and talented to go into some BS platooning that will just slow or wreck his development.

Bro… you don’t develop an arm to be an mlb 3b at this point in life. Maybe he could not be so atrocious fielding with some more reps but he’ll never have the arm for it. It’s over. Get Smith up, See what he’ got but Espy is the better 3b this year. It’s August

[Laika]

Hard not to just fall in love with Espinal. So cute

[InvincibleTiger]

He's a rock at the hot corner. So refreshing compared to Biggio and Panik

[BCZ]

ITT - idiots! Espinal is a bench player having a fluky good season offensively. Biggio is probably a core of this lineup having a bad season mostly because he started it off with a nagging neck injury.

[Captain Adama]

They’re the same age. Espinal is better defensively and has also been better offensively. It seems like the smart move right now.

 

Like sure, Espinal has been great thus far off the back of a .374 BABIP. I like him for what he is, but let's be honest with ourselves here. Regression could hit him at any time.

 

EDIT: Nvm, just saw Biggio's statcast profile. Woof.

He's pretty much the ideal utility guy. I'm disappointed in people falling in love with SSS here. It's actually sad.

Saying he’s the better option to start over Biggio is hardly falling in love. It’s not even akin to admitting you like the girl

[Eat My Shatkins]

Love what Espinal is doing, his glove at 3rd is for real but he's got no power and I don't think he can keep it up with the bat long term.

 

I really want to see what Smith can do up here.

[vaff]

I think Kevin Smith also deserves a chance to play third.

[BlueRocky]

Gdt?

[ShowtimeBelli]

Guess we're using this. Ump sucks already

[Bluebombers]

Jays rotation looking solid as ever.

3 aces. Manoah could be 4
