Just replace Burleson with Walker you useless garden gnome. Presto. They asked for most upside, that ain't your boy Burly. He has peaked, just getting fatter and slower. Wear it.Shady wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 21:06 pmYou are a gutless weasel. What's your lineup?

I'll try to accommodate you. I realize you are a very special poster.

A lot of upside to anonymous forums but the downsides are the trolls(childish & annoying) and posters like Shady & ME-ville who both clearly need professional psychiatric help!
They face zero accountability. Be glad you don’t have to deal with them in real life!
I actually do hope they get that professional help.
He’s cooled off lately too. So definitely need to let him settle in there. They rushed Carlson after a hot AAA streak. Better to let him work through things down thereBrummerStealsHome wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 17:44 pmRevren!Basil Shabazz wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 14:56 pm OF Donny, VS2, Walker

But leave JJW at AAA longer. No need to rush him.
Agree. The theory that VSII will become a legit hitter is belied by his regressive performance from college to the minors to MLB. Only 61 career runs scored by a guy with his speed. He's very good defensively, but he has a -1.1 arm (e.g., only 3 assists in MLB).scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 21:38 pmThank youdugoutrex wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 16:54 pmany lineup with VS2 isn't the best possible upsideBasil Shabazz wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 14:56 pm OF Donny, VS2, Walker

I'm on record for saying I’d give Nathan Church a shot.
Outside the box idea, what about JJW?
I was sitting in Big Mac land last night and Gorman was at 3B. It was very evident he is very slow reacting to the ball. The play in front of Winn he should have been going towards first and short hopping the ball instead of breaking late and heading towards CF where he had to spin. Then on Shaw's triple it was literally a ground ball ten feet to his right but he didn't move till it was by him. He looked good at bat, but not sure he has the reactionary skills to play 3B.JohnnyMO wrote: ↑09 Aug 2025 16:43 pmI wouldn’t rush JJ until at least September callups. Gorman at 3rd, Walker in right. Burly and Herrera rotate between DH and LF.
It's only Church with the longer-term plan for Josh Baez. They can't keep VSII as a starter. JJW is not one I'd try, but that's me.Basil Shabazz wrote: ↑10 Aug 2025 11:01 amOut of the current players in the organization, who would you play in CF the rest of the season?ClassicO wrote: ↑10 Aug 2025 10:57 amAgree.
