Sucks to lose Thompson since he showed promise but simultaneously glad they sold “high” on him too lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't give up anything that's gonna hurt us in 22. We just got better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlinsmaniac Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Ah damn, Nicolas was really the only one that hurts a bit but definitely could have been worse and it needed to be done. Good trade all in all Edited November 29, 2021 by marlinsmaniac 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valid Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) I like Thompson, but yeah; I'm fine giving him up given the amount of pitching depth this organization has. Solid move. Still need to add another bat, though. Edited November 29, 2021 by Valid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't been paying attention to baseball at all lately lol Good defense, handles the pitching staff, potential to hit well... in other words he's more of a starter than Alfaro. He's not a superstar but he makes us better now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotcorner Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Connor Scott too but ah well. Stallings is super defensively, like among the elite. Nothing special on offense but he's at least average which is an upgrade for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Das Texan Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Stallings will hit in the .240s probably and that is just fine for all else he brings to the table. Put him in the 8 hole and let him catch 120-130 games next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
