December 5, 20169 yr I'm fine with the current plan; I'm just saying, why wouldn't Edwin be a Plan B if they fail to sign a high-leverage reliever? They clearly have money to spend. Maybe he is? Who knows actually
December 5, 20169 yr Early Bird Special or no? no late night Vegas Buffet. And just like a late night Vegas Buffet it will lead to the runs...
December 5, 20169 yr so they're probably looking for 4/100 or something? it's his age 34-38 years so expect some drop-off maybe but he's been awfully good the last few years.

December 5, 20169 yr Honestly our offense was one of the worst last season. We could probably use Edwin, But this as unrealistic. Marlins aren't looking in this department. BTW: I find Edwin Encarnacions last few years of production odd. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets busted for PED usage in the near future.

BTW: I find Edwin Encarnacions last few years of production odd. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets busted for PED usage in the near future. Why? He's always had power.
December 5, 20169 yr He has always had pop, although wrist injuries did slow down his career. Although he did learn patience and how to work the count better at the plate, his overall hands, and eyes as a player is more along the lines of a Mike Lowell type hitter which is great. But 41 HRs, idk man, I'd have to see a couple more seasons like last one to prove me wrong. It just seems strange that although I do consider all those factors, he just went from 20 HR a season to doubling that figure in a season. Although Rogers center is a hitters park, it just seems odd. I hope Im wrong cause I like him as a player.

December 5, 20169 yr how many games did we talk about trying to single teams to death. Encarnacion + Stanton.
December 5, 20169 yr I mentioned on this board going after Encarnacion two months ago and my sanity was questioned. Run production is a major problem with this team, Despite ample base runners the constant inability to get runners home has eaten away at this team for years. I would gladly package Bour with Dietrich or Ozuna to bring back pitching and let EE have 1st base. If Loria is prepared to spend then he can do so here. Most likely Jensen or Chapman will go elsewhere anyway.

Yankee Stadium at times can be a homer park. Trumbo just hit 40 in that division. Its no accident when most of the stadiums are homer havens.
December 5, 20169 yr Well than. Lets sign him. Except that in the NL East, you dont have nearly the friendly home run hitting parks.
December 6, 20169 yr That's my joke. Copyright[uSER=2328]@SilverBullet1929[/uSER] 2016 No it isn't. It is my joke. Copyright @Admin 2016
