This team desperately needs a bat. Like really bad.

Given limited resources, I'd rather get a pitcher than a bat (though ideally both would be nice). Outside the last two games, the offense has been pretty good. Averaging over 5 runs a game since mid-April, still scored a bunch of runs over the 1-6 stretch.

I just have a weird feeling that the Hahn is going to try and get "both" in a packaged deal.

Delmonico's hitting .333 against LHP and .330 against RHP in AA (will soon be promoted).

 

.326 home, .333 away, incredibly consistent.

 

OPS well over 1.000. Just once, it would be nice to have a HITTER come out of the minors totally unexpectedly and rake...like the Cardinals seemingly have every season.

 

 

Danny Hayes was first in line in the LH bat pecking order, but Delmonico's definitely one to keep an eye on. Will turn 24 in July, so not the typical 27-33 year old AAAA journeyman. Granted, it's still pretty unlikely we'd see either hitter unless Avi just collapsed completely (not impossible to rule out) and they wanted someone to share at-bats with Sands while they were looking for a better solution on the trade market/waiver wire.

It would be cool just to hear Harrelson have to say "Nicky," lol.

This game was a little frustrating even though Sale pitched a cruised control game. Kinda shocked only 20 pages of doom and gloom yesterday. Chris Sale is just that good ;)
