  1. I know, they have too many bench players in the starting lineup. Atkins should start to improve the lineup, and no wait till the trade deadline for that. Yordan Alvarez , Logan Webb or Byron Buxton can be available.
  2. Vlady keep his power off untill world series games start😉 Seriously, no having Bichette to hit after him, make Vlad getting less pitches in the HR zone.
  3. During the spring trainning camp, I said that Lauer was trash and needed to be DFA. Many people here didn't agreed, and now we can see that he need be DFA😁
  4. Bieber won't return this year. He's more close to a 2nd Tommy John surgery than playing in MLB this year
  5. Hope Varland will be the closer, Rogers for the 8 inning, and Fisher for 7 inning. Time for Hoffman to be used less often
  6. The closer I wanted Jays sign, was Robert Suarez. Imagine the bullpen with Varland, Suarez, Rogers
  7. He remind me Chad Green. Hopefully he will be DFA before end of the season, and Atkins will trade for a top reliever.
  8. The bats are non existant, excepted 3-4 guys in the starting lineup including the bench.
  9. Doubtfull, because even with stellar stats, Emmanuel Clase didn't win in 2024
  10. If we are lucky, Okamoto and Atkins can mutually decide to end his contract, so he can return play in Japan next year
  11. Bieber probably need another Tommy John surgery, and will be a surprise if he throw again in the MLB. Atkins traded for Sosa, because Okamoto and Lukes dont do their jobs.
  12. 22 homers, 75 RBI last year, he will play 2B, so Clement can be back at 3B
  13. I don`t think Springer and Lukes will be back in 2027, and if Varsho don't improve his offensive stats, he won't. Santander will be the DH next year, and Jesus Sanchez actually outperforming Lukes. Hopefully Atkins can manage get Byron Buxton if they don't plan bring back Varsho.
  14. If Atkins wanted him back, he will have done it, instead waiting Dodgers sign Tucker. Bo will have been better at 2B, and offense will have been better having Bo at fourth rank of batting order, instead of Okamoto or Barger.
  15. No really, we just need keep Gausman , So we will have 4 good SP, Vlad, Okamoto, Clement, Kirk, Barger, Gimenes are still here, and if we don't keep Springer, Straw, Varsho, Santander, Atkins will have plenty of cash to find replacement next year.
  16. Barger he's a .230 AVG hitter with some power, good defense, but shouldn't be used at ranks 3-5 in batting order.
  17. Fairbanks or Suarez will have been good signing to replace Garcia
  18. The problem, in LF and RF we only have bench players. No one of them will be starter with the Dodgers, Yankees, Mariners and few other big teams.
  19. You right. Clement should be our 2nd hitter, and we should have Okamoto 4, then Barger 5 and Kirk 6. Sanchez, Varsho, Gimenes, 7-9
  20. It's no a surprise at all. Yes we have better SP than in 2025, and even if they add Skubal, Skenes and Yamamoto to the group, we still have many holes in offense. Barger, Varsho are back to prior 2025. Sanchez, Lukes, Schneider, Straw are bench players, they shouldn't be used in top 6 of batting order. Springer and KIrk lost their super hero abillities. Vlad can't do all by himself. Gimenes, Clement, Okamoto are ok. In the bullpens we need a far better option than Little. Why no have traded for Robert Jr when he was avalaible for peanut before Mets trade for him?
