Been wondering when Svanson would get the call.
Can someone please take Burleson away from Oli?

Nice Swanson with the callup! The return for PDJ. Former lucky 13th round pick by the Blue Jays.

Wilson back in the two spot. Would really like to see more time lower in lineup.

Contreras back in the 2 hole and Burleson (86 OPS+) for Gorman (189 OPS+) again and batting 5th.

I would think Saggese would be a perfect #2 hitter.

I'd like to see Walker at #2.

I thought Mo's plan was to get Gorman 600 PAs this year. Maybe he needs to have a talk with Oli. Oli must get a charge out of seeing Burleson slap the occasional single.

Whats really weird is he played gorman coupke games agi vs a lefty keeping saggese on the bench but now benches gorman for sahgese vs the righty. Quite frankly, both should get bats over burly. Its time to move on from him.

Why is Burly being given so much PT with his low OBP and SLG and OPS? Gorman needs to be in there almost every day. Did Oli not get the memo?
I hope Bloom moves Burly to another team in the offseason.

The hand that holds the bottle says drink it till it’s gone. But now that it’s half empty I’m not sure I can go on.
