Seiya instead of Happ in Center is...... interesting.

Pete is toast? Is he dead Jim? LOL But I’m not liking Seiya as the alternative, even if only for one game. Why not Happ? Or even better, why not DFA a nothingburger like Brujan and call up Cassie for a look?

Kelly is not a clean up hitter. He should bat 8th

Willi Castro and Maikel Garcia are a couple 3B that I like if we don't get Suarez. Don't see us trading for a platoon guy at 1B/DH/OF but would like a decent bench bat.

While we need a 3b, im fine with letting Shaw figure it out, I do think he will eventually hit…need pitching way before third base

Happy really needs to start hitting, really struggling

Although I just looked, he’s actually about where he usually is for most categories, lower end but still

Just get hot for a week

If we are possibly going to use Caissie as trade bait, I don’t we would want to possibly bring him up and devalue him if he doesn’t do well right away

Brown is a joke.

Brown is a joke.

Not gonna act like I’m the biggest fan of his but that wasn’t that bad of a pitch. I didn’t think there was a chance it was gone off the bat

Brown is a joke.

He gets hit so hard. Exit velocity on him is insane

How about hitting a home run in his first at bat?

 

[BigJCy]

Turner seems to be hitting a bit better here of late.

And so is Shaw.

 

[HoustonClone]

The K on Seiya was BS, in my opinion. Where is the common sense regarding time given when getting hit by a foul ball, which is obviously what happened?

WHO NEEDS SUAREZ

Brown should be a relief pitcher

Brown should be a relief pitcher

If we had Jaimo and Steele, he could just be long relief, which is his best fit.

Unexpected batting hero today
