lololololol

Gonna assume we want someone more experienced than MacKinnon in that role and he takes his spot

[UndertheHalo]

That’s awesome man. 

[mmc]

While Goose isn't great, hard to argue he's not an upgrade over what we have I guess, higher fWAR than Duffy, Velazquez, MacKinnon, Wade, Villar, Fletcher, Rojas, Mayfield

[79CAAman]

I have to defend Fletcher a little here.  He does make contact with the ball, which with this team, is HUGE.  I DO think the team will be improve once he's back in the lineup.

Oh FFS. 

[UndertheHalo]

Guys.  He’s a winning player.

Am I having a stroke ?

Minasian doing work.

I thought they would play Stefanic, Rengifo and Fletcher (in some combo) at 2b, ss and 3b the rest of the way and see how it shakes out.....but this makes me wonder....why Gosselin makes sense to a team going nowhere, I have no idea....

Lagares, Suzuki, Gosselin...all worked so well last year.

I really want to see Stefanic and Rengifo get everyday playing time, Luis especially, it's sort of now or never for him here. 

I like MacKinnon too. Not huge expectations and think he's at best a platoon/bench-bat, but would rather see him than Gosselin.

I imagine Trout will be eligible pretty soon after the ASB.

 

Which means he'll be back around August 22.

[nando714]

Trout has quit 

[Angelsjunky]

So it's not his back, but his ribcage? 

[Vlad27Trout27]

Man even the medical staff is terrible....Everything is a waste. 

[Chuck]

So much for seeing Trout in Atlanta this weekend. 

[T.G.]

Back spams = Ribcage Inflamation

Dehydration = TJ Surgery

Just updating the medical directory.

Lagares will 100% see AB's for this team again this year

Considering he's signed to the KBO for the rest of the season I doubt it

[AngelsFaninGA]

When are we bringing back Kevin Frandsen and Matt Joyce? Can we convince Raul Ibanez to unretire and bat .120 for us in the 3 spot? I really like where this season is headed

Since our front office seems categorically incapable of actually scouting fresh talent and loves to keep recycling the same washed up journeymen, I'm sure they'll find a way. Especially when we learn that Trout actually has some sort of debilitating muscle disease and will miss the rest of the year.
