Good stuff 💪🏼 they have to bring in RH outfield bat obviously. This will also create a pinch hitter for Rojas. If you’re up in a game you leave Rojas in center if you’re down runs, you’re hitting for him 7,8 or 9th innnng and Marsh is in center, but backend bullpen piece is priority ✌🏼
I believe we need to go after Mason Miller and Brent Rooker hard. That includes giving up anyone and everyone not named Andrew Painter. I'd like to hold onto Crawford as well, but NOW is the time to win. People keep talking about Rooker's outfield play and how "horrible" it is, and I say it's not as bad as losing the world series because we couldn't get that one hit. This guy can hit, and any defensive shortcomings don't come close to what he can provide offensively. He's a perfect fit for this club. And we'd have control of him until 2028 and Miller for about 5 more years. Miller could also be stretched out to be a starter again in a year or two if need be.
Definitely missed Wednesdays with Jason! You know, they have reduced the total number of American black players in baseball to 6%. Maybe that has had an effect on hitting?
