Have the Nats throw in Jordy Mercer in the deal, problem solved.

No I get it, and I don't really think you are wrong.....but obviously they can't acquire everything and no roster is going to be perfect. If they can acquire a bat like Schwarber, I think allows Leury to basically just go back to INF work, which sort of solves that issue. Lamb can also play 3B obviously, so basically Leury is your backup 2B/SS.

They can find that guy very easily, in the Timo Perez/Geoff Blum role that basically gets dealt for a PTBNL

I’m not convinced the Sox need a replacement at 2B right now, I really believe Mendick can do the job. The Sox are 37-6 when they hit a HR this season, and I do think that stat does have some significance. I think Schwarber could be had for less than Frazier and probably a similar package to Escobar. Him being a LH power bat also gives this lineup a little more balance, and would really be some nice insurance when guys get back.

I really like this idea.

Not sure but I assume you'll find something wrong with it

Fuck yes

I just wish there wasn't a rule in baseball where you can't use your best pitcher late in games. Fucking MLB, man....

I mean that's absolute garbage.

I really don't think they need to upgrade there with Madgrial down. Find a bullpen arm and maybe another UTL bat

That's a sexy Mandick if I've ever seen one

This is where a competent manager is missed.

Defend this, LaRussa stans. DO IT

I love when Jason and Steve rip on LaRussa then just stay silent for 15 seconds to let it breath.

It's a tough call, let LaRussa think on it some more.

Correct. Both can be true. Bummer and Marshall need to be better (Bummer wasn't that bad) but putting Marshall in that spot is on TLR, and it's not arm-chair QB'ing when everyone said it was the wrong call before he took the mound.

It seems so obvious.....but yet so hard to execute for some in the dugout

Hey, there you are! Right on cue!

Come on

YEEEEEE-HAWWWW

Bummer wasn't that bad that inning.... Bringing Marshall in here and not Hendricks is...........odd.

God this would be a crushing loss....just find a way to get this W

Well shit

If I have to read that garbage, I'm going to bring it back. lol
