CWSpalehoseCWS Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 Well, the MI defense certainly has improved… this team is gonna blow offensively. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirmin' for Yermin Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I don't understand the rationale behind signing Dejong and trading for Lopez and NOT giving a legit tryout to Sosa or Rodriguez.. Like... We KNOW DeJong and Lopez are garbage, let's see if either of our guys can be just as garbage.. but cheaper. 7 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I don't get it either...unless they want to commit to DeJong or Lopez as the backup. Edit: unless Getz just doesn't like Sosa.

bmags Posted November 21, 2023 Share Posted November 21, 2023 I'm...dreaming...of a whiiiiiite anyway I like DeJong. As I've said before, he is impressively tall. Someone said they wanted to root for Merrifield cause he runs smart and is fast and tries hard. I ... am just like being impressed by this big tall man.
