GDT 8-12. The bullpen cometh

Ender's sprint speed is down to 25.9 ft/second this year. That's probably why his defense is down as well.

AA's not likely going to get any sleep tonight - particularly depending on the Acuna results. Can't imagine there's a panic trade coming, but with an extra day off and any additional absence for Ronald he may have no choice other than to bring Pache and Anderson up.

While I’m not giving up hope on this season just yet with the injuries and shortened season wouldn’t this be the perfect time to break Pache in?
I understand we would lose control of his age 28 season but for all we know he may not be worth resigning anyways and if he is then with the money we saved on the kids we could sign him anyways.
I just don’t see why Ender is still on this team especially with the way Snit seems to have given up on him lately
 
Unless Cole comes back with a vengeance...we aren’t winning anything. We have one pitcher you can count on right now, and at some point he will have a bad stretch also most likely.

This has turned into a development year.

FTFY
 
So...I was thinking Ender is signed thru 2022, but that’s a option with a 1mil buy out. Next year will be his last year. Someone might bite on taking him for a change in scenery...please...anyone ?

It’s that way at more than just pitching. No clear cut winner at the 3B position...Freddie needs someone other than Ozuna to protect him...OF still isn’t sured up.

With Pache and Waters coming up....3rd could be the upgrade spot. This is the season to find out. It just takes at bats to let these guys develop.

Who is a free agent next year?

None too sexy at the 3B position. Justin Turner and Marwin Gonazalez.
 
Snit just said Acuña has inflammation in his wrist, will miss the Marlins series, and they’ll reevaluate on Monday.

He also said they’re not calling anyone up and will just travel without Acuña.

Probably will come via trade.

Jose Ramirez, Matt Chapman, Hunter Dozier, Yandy Diaz, Kyle Seagar. Any of those guys could be available.

Off season or next year, Matt Chapman seems to make too much sense for that blockbuster trade we have been expecting for a couple years now. Maybe trade for him and sign one other big name pitcher, and we could be looking pretty good next year. Left field will also be a hole but much easier to fill.

Chapman has a gold glove at third. Think he would move across the diamond and allow Freddie to take over third?

Chapman has too much control. We'd have to empty the farm to maybe get him.

Kris Bryant is the guy that makes more sense. Even Arenado.

I'd expect someone like Jose Quintana on the patented AA 1 year deal.

Extend FF.

AA should have some money to play with next year, if Liberty isn't frightened by COVID revenues.
