I’m not disagreeing with the lineup but we aren’t helping Gorman by sitting him. If he isn’t going to play, send him down where he gets everyday ABs in Memphis. Everyday reps at 2B-3B are beneficial too.
Exactly. Still only 24...needs to play everyday, either here or in Memphis.
Its 2 freaking games. He will be the first guy in the lineup when many of these players receive offdays. Most our guys wont start more than 130 games and donovan can move arpund to cover others offdays opening a spot for gorman. Between 30 games off for contreras, donovan, burly, walker, noot, and winn, thats 180 games if they dont sit on the same day. Thats more than enough to get gorman some decent playing time. Stop overreacting to 2 games.
Who's overreacting?
He's 24. Needs regular ABs. If not here, then in Memphis. If he gets 500 ABs here...great. If he's a bench player, I feel it's better for any 24 year-old player to be sent down so he can hit every day. Neither a new or radical concept.
And as i outlined- regular at bats are more than available up in majors. These players will start getting rotating offdays so he cam get some playing time. They just dont need them yet 2 days in. The 10th batter cam still easily get many at bats.
Fair enough. Time will tell.

Fedde having a good start
He is. There was so much angst on this board about Fedde. I still think he should have been traded for prospects but until then we can enjoy a good mid-rotation pitcher.
I agree 100% I liked the trade when it was made and like it now but like you I think he should have been traded for prospects
We weren't getting a top prospect
No one mentioned a top prospect. We mentioned prospects.

It definitely is, he’s looking like the Arenado of old.

I’m certainly not opposed to trading Fedde if the return is good.
I just don’t get why so many feel we HAVE to trade him??
I understand that he will be approaching free agency.
But....if he has a good year and finds a home here keep him.
He may not be a #2 SP but that is not on him.
