Burleson (.627 OPS) needs to be sent to Memphis when I. Hererra is activated.

agree cuz Gorman needs to be given at bats.
I DO like Burly's defense at first base though.
Better than Contreras IMO

Nado with the 143 OPS* is just fine.
Contreras needs to get hot.
Burleson needs to sell insurance. When was his last HR? Maybe August of '24?

"Contreras needs to get hot" Brilliant Frenchy, I'll suggest, Burleson also nneeds to get hot. You can't seem to conceptualize the expectations for 33/34 M and 18 M salaries compared to the relative "peanuts" Burleson makes as a MLB player. You are quite narrow-minded.

The team is paying Nado $27 million in 2025. Drops to $22 million in 2026. You'd of never made it as an attorney where it's important to get your facts straight!

My bad, I guess it was 33/34 million/yr at one time for Arenado fairly recently. He is still a "big money guy" As is the .139 hitting Contreras.

Absolutely

Gorman has upside, needs those PA's Burleson (no upside) is taking.

WillyC is a 0 OAA/-1 DRS, Bison is also 0 OAA/+1 DRS

That said, I still want him to go down or be dealt.

He's more clutter at this stage than asset.

You've already been corrected on NA.
Yes WC needs to hit, He's a #6 or #7 until he does
or Baker gives him days off.

Burleson making peanuts has ZERO to do with lineup production.
Him being bat guy is just much a black hole when hitting 20% below the league.

IMHO, Burleson would do better focusing on contact vs SLG since he is a complete
sell out at the plate attempting SLG. The issue is that IF he did do that, he'd have little career.
He can't be a Donovan, although to date that is who he'd be better emulating.

His low pay only makes him easier to cut.

Yeah, Nado is a big money guy! I guess 10 GG, 6 platinum gloves, 5 Silver Sluggers, and 8 All Star games will result in a nice salary? Who knew?

And here I thought this thread was about ownership.
