You already got your lefty in Libby. Need Pallante to be a two.
Let's hope, eventually, McGreevy, Mathews and Roby will also come aboard in the starting rotation.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 11:46 amYou already got your lefty in Libby. Need Pallante to be a two.
You’re asking for the moon. Be lucky if one of yours, Libby or Pallante blossoms to ace level.Shady wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 11:49 amLet's hope, eventually, McGreevy, Mathews and Roby will also come aboard in the starting rotation.sikeston bulldog2 wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 11:46 amYou already got your lefty in Libby.

Yeah....no. making all this up after 20 games.Talkin' Baseball wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 13:36 pm It looks like a whole different offense (for the better) compared to last year. Also, for a reset season a big part of the purpose is to sort out the roster and see what they are and are not. Early returns say Herrera and Saggese are hitters. Contreras can play first base. Scott can hit major league pitching enough to stay on the field. Pages can hit enough to be in the lineup consistently.
Liberatore can be a starter. Walker can play defense well enough to stay in RF. Still waiting to see if Walker will hit for power, if Gorman will hit with any consistency at all, what the heck can you do with Burleson, or if Herrera will be good enough defensively to remain at catcher. Answer as many of these questions this year as you can.

I did say that these were early returns. These things will be evaluated on an ongoing basis all year.scoutyjones2 wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 13:46 pmYeah....no. making all this up after 20 games.Talkin' Baseball wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 13:36 pm It looks like a whole different offense (for the better) compared to last year.

Look at these last 3...and today
The brief blip is over
Bumbles, JW, UniKKKorn all can't hit. Pages had his moment and is meh. VS2 is sinking
maybe a mention of Donovan would be appropriate here........

Herrera? Noot? Hurdy Gurdy? Maton? Nado?
Walker's defense has improved greatly and decent job as a hitter. Hopefully his hitting will continue to a improve. Herrera's strong start is encouraging along with Donovan having such a great start. Libby is finally living up to what the organization expected. Saggese is an absolute keeper.11WSChamps wrote: ↑20 Apr 2025 13:49 pm Libby, Pages, Saggese, Nootbar (healthy), Leahy If he's not worked to death..Scott showing some promise although he's cooled off (now time for adjustments)..
