Jose Abreu Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 On 7/8/2018 at 6:33 PM, fathom said: Tilson doesn't need more reps. He's not a major leaguer. Don't forget Delmonico will be back soon. Expand He's at least better than Engel. At this point all Engel is doing is being a waste of space. When Delmonico is back, he needs to be in left with Leury in center and Avi in right. Palka can DH/LF/RF so that he still plays 3-5 times a week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lillian Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 LH hitters hitting .304 against Keuchel, and RR has all three switch hitters hitting right handed, and benches Palka. Does this man even look at the data? Can anyone offer an explanation here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can definitely see him having a solid outing if Kevin calls for more breaking balls. Seems like he's got a feel for it today. Shutting down a team like this will do wonders for his confidence.

Dick Allen Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Avi’s career arc is staring to look like JD Martinez. Struggle and be a release candidate. Break out with an unsustainable BABIP, but then adds power, which we always knew he had but couldn’t elevate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand That would be great. On the pitching side, I could see Stephens being added and us going with 6 starters (or Giolito/Covey being optioned). In the pen, optioning Rondon/Volstad and trading Soria in favor of Vieira/Hamilton, maybe Gomez, would also be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I usually defend Anderson but the umpire was right on that one. Unfortunate for him to have a bad AB there since his first two were pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 You have to give Gio some credit. He really settled down after the first couple of hitter.
