    yes we need a 3b. bryant was picking up steam at the end of the week but i haven’t seen anything since. arenado is probably too expensive

    wouldn’t mind someone like inciarte

    I dont know how to interepret all the defensive metrics, so I have a question

    How does Gallo rate according to the metrics as a CF?

    it’s a good trade even if kluber isn’t shit anymore

    yeah basically the whole farm but there’s potential in some of them. just young and nowhere close to ready

    farm sucks anyways, might as well risk it all for someone who doesn’t suck shit

    guzman sucks but they’ll roll with him at 1b and hope he puts it together

    3b, c, of in terms of needs in order imo

    gallo is going to play cf fwiw

    if anything they’ll probably move calhoun to right because he’s fat and slow

    also solak could play in the of so it’s not really a priority but it’d be nice to sign someone who’s a true cf

    agreed...which is why i dont think they are done yet. I think they evetually sign donaldson. if he had 4 years on the table, he would have signed already.

    How is this our positional lineup after what the front office said at the start of the offseason? We picked up a hopefully league average 3b and are stuck with shit at 1b and CF. There’s no way Santana duplicates last years hitting success when you look at the rest of his career. And now Woody is trying to pimp Eli White and Solak as viable CF’ers. I guess just let Solak get the at bats. I hope ownership sells the team soon.

    My post was sarcasm, GLP has natural light coming in on all sides, Minute Maid is Tropicana Field with a big window in left field.

    No, that makes sense. From a heat standpoint, you're right. From an aesthetics standpoint, TBIA will be missed.
