There is very good reason they have not done so.
And I know exactly why that is.
I never know how to answer these questions.
On the west coast too. This is perfect!imetsatchelpaige wrote: ↑08 Jul 2025 20:59 pmThanks-appreciated.
On the West Coast, it works for me, as long as Gray doesn’t blowup.
I agree completely. I love your takes, I just don't know why you didn't just say that. There's no need for a grand entry.

Three reasons.
One, they don't want to DL him before the trade deadline.
Two, the next 12 games are against poor teams and it may give Arenado a chance to show more productivity.
Three, the ASG break is rapidly approaching, which will be him a built-in break, without hitting the DL.
Bottom line: he only goes on the DL if there is simply no way to avoid it.

Did not have time for a conversation.
So I simply teed it up until I could engage more fully.
