It’s a long season, obviously, but we could have something here . . . . . .
Thus far I am sold on sending Dozier down and keeping Alberto at 3rd. Lopez has been fine as well so he can ride some pine when Mondesi gets back but I wouldn't send him down unless they want him getting reps.
Soler is starting to pick it up a little bit. Our roster is loaded with "hitters". Not necessarily smashers but we got a lot of guys that can hit and most will go yard on a mistake. Probably the most complete roster we have had since 2015. [Reply]

Sad thing is with Dozier we can’t send him down cuz we gave him a nice extension [Reply]
Well if we don't send him we need to sit him if he doesn't start hitting. Maybe 2-3 weeks at the alternate site will give him a chance to figure it out. His defense is coming along after the thumb. Is Alberto as good a defender as him? I noticed a couple sucky throws and the error was Alberto. [Reply]

I'd hate to move on from Mondesi and he becomes the second coming with someone else but that's probably what's going to happen. Hopefully someone overpays in prospects that pan out for the most part. Wouldn't mind platooning him in the outfield. Maybe dude can play third if Dozier doesn't get it together and we call up Witt. [Reply]

Alberto was charged with an error but what it comes down too is Santana is nothing close to Hosmer when it comes to playing 1st base [Reply]

If anyone was a candidate to be the second coming of Alex Gordon after a shift to the outfield, it’s Mondesi. [Reply]

This. The non-baseball people are maddening to read. A little over two weeks and they're trading, demoting and releasing half the roster. DUMB. [Reply]
