  2. I hope Jo Adell can end up being as good as Brian Goodwin one day . . .
  3. Grounds crew working quick as possible to make sure Upton doesn't come to the plate.
  4. Eppler did a good job bringing in La Stella, Goodwin, Robles, and Buttrey. And he called up Fletcher!
  5. Spoiling the Red Sox' chances of making the playoffs. Seeing Adell play at Angel Stadium.
  6. That 14 million needs to be spent on the best free agent starting pitching we can get. Goodwin is a good placeholder in right field until Adell takes over. Unfortunately, it would not surprise me if the option was picked up, and we once again went dumpster diving for starting pitching.
  7. I don't mind the Stassi deal. Cheap, under team control, good defense, decent power, best years may be ahead of him, gave up nothing.
  8. Calhoun has 24 home runs and elite defense. I find it very hard to believe a NL contender would have no interest in him.
  9. Yup. Houston Astros 2019 World Series champions. Dodgers becoming Buffalo Bills?
  10. SD is my second team and I'm devastated to see Reyes go. From what I've read, the Padres wanted their future center fielder, more lefties in the lineup (including Josh Naylor in LF), and more OBP/speed for the top of the order. Future lineup could look something like this: 1. Trammell CF (L), 2. Tatis Jr SS (R), 3. Machado 3B (R), 4. Hosmer 1B (L), 5. Renfroe RF (R), 6. Naylor LF (L), 7. Urias 2B (R), 8. Mejia (S), 9. Pitcher
  11. For a second, I thought the title read "Teams Only interested in Goodwin."
  12. Trade simulator says: Boyd = Thaiss, Ward, and Marsh.
  13. We have plenty of quality infielders. Fletcher and Rengifo deserve to be in the majors, La Stella is an impact bat (hopefully not a fluke), Thaiss and Ward have potential to be big league contributors soon . . . Simmons is a great player, but for us, he's expendable. I would definitely explore trading him for starting pitching.
  14. The Tin Man loves those cheap home runs down the right field line.
  15. I've moved on. I thought after the Dodger series we would have extended the winning streak to 11 before the deadline. Now it looks like going 4-3 for the homestand is a pipe dream.
