Donnie isn’t doing him any favors. He is basically a lefty specialist. I’m surprised he held up as long as he has.

We don’t have a deep bench because we need as many bullpen arms for all these bullpen starts.

A starting pitcher over bullpen games is far more beneficial by having a deeper hitting bench, (it’s been limited) not taxing the pen (they are on fumes) and you can pitch by matchups (haven’t seen all year),

So if Watson asks for top draft slot money, let’s say in the 1-5 selection, that would go against the MLB policy?

I never felt such apathy from a FO and I’ve been a Marlin fan since their expansion. It’s not all about spending money either, it’s more about their attitude, how they know more than anyone and don’t have to answer to anyone kind of mentality.

Does any really believe they will even sign Watson? When Ng said, we expect him to sign but it’s going to take time, that was a red flag and reminded me of the same cheap talk with Marte. Either be committed or stop pretending

Bout time

I know it feels like a blow out right now, but Bass ahead of Bender? This FO is poised to prove they been right when constructing this heap of dung.

So Bass somehow slips ahead of Bender in the bullpen rotation?

I thought I read on the forum that MLB may implement pushing back the mound. 🤷‍♂️

I agree with everything you’re saying although with Pablo, he’s reached his max value and his numbers aren’t sustainable. I’m also a bit concerned for him when the new mound rules take effect next year. The difference between Sandy and Pablo is that Sandy can sustain a 3.00 ERA with slumps because he has better stuff. Pablo is a pitcher’s pitcher if he slumps or they figure it out, he will be a middle rotation piece. That’s not bad, but he has ace value right now with a surplus of pitchers who will be ready next year. This could be a bit of a reach, but Pablo as a pitcher is like Cooper as a hitter. If Coop didn’t slump the first 2 months he would have All Star numbers that would look as impressive as Pablo’s. Cooper would be our Mike Trout (a bad example). That’s how we are viewing Pablo right now, when he’s somewhere in the middle.

Rojas just went 3-4 and is batting after Panik. Lol

• Package deals only, quality over quantity. That means some of our prospects as well • Top ready to play prospects/players only. • Three way trade partners if you don’t like the main suitors. Better chance to get a player who is major league ready. • No more fringy batting prospects. They need to be consistent all around the board. The farm is already heaped with average and busters. • Don’t trade just to trade. Teams will catch on and we will lose strength in negotiations. I’m 100% sure Ng is going to mess this up. I’ll admit it if I’m wrong.

Harrison was added so that’s something OF I guess IDK, seems like a potential trade move honestly.

Hopefully this doesn’t mean a Rojas trade? Maybe something to do with Panik. Do they really need another left handed infielder. I think it’s a precautionary move until the trade deadline.

Wish Don would have said it like that.

Besides the 2 dodger games, Sandy would probably be at a 2.00 ERA this year. We know he tipped his pitches the first game and they seemed to know what was coming later in the 2nd game.

Lopez = Anibal Sanchez. We could land an Adrian Gonzalez type bat and more right now if we get lucky.

If Don gets his way.

Sal is a freak athlete

At 16 I would say yes maybe

Lol

I think that was a reach. A HS pick who possesses speed at a catcher position? No thanks.

It looks like he has the “it factor”
