This team is going nowhere this season…..all listed are going to do nothing to add to team…..so why not just play the kids?? There’s some Siani out there in the minors….stick him in OF
ALL these arms we’ve been hearing about for YEARS…..let them pitch…..it’s now or never…..
I thought last year was now or never?
Well all the old dogs are gone….not sure why you’d bring in more vets…..play the Yutes
The outfield is where the possible bat could be of benefit.
The old dogs were infield dwellers.

There's not much out there as far as FA bats anyway. However, if
a trade could change the outfield situation for more than what some
1 year FA guy would, I think that you pursue that.

I’m ok with that strategy, but which MiLB arms are healthy and MLB-ready? It’s tricky, because of innings limits on young arms.
