If Gomez starts, I'm going to round up an onion sack full of stray kittens, add a cinder block, and throw them in the river.

To think we traded away Maverick for Go-Go makes me really sad.

Call up Bregman to play 3rd. Sit Gomez for Mariznick, catch Gattis instead of Castro and have Tucker DH.

Are we stuck with Gomez? I'm wondering what kind of pitching we could trade for. Maybe something like Gomez/Singleton for a solid #3

We can bitch about Gomez and Valbuena (and rightfully so), but the whole team has been dogshit terrible with RISP. It's the reason they are off to such a terrible start. That's an "everybody" problem.

If you were an opposing GM would you even remotely consider trading a #3 starter for those two?

We should bunt more often. That's my attempt to solve our problem atm.

The potential answers are in the system. If Gomez and Marisnick cannot hit, give Kemp a shot to play LF and bat 9th. If lil Tony can simply battle to get on base and move runners along when needed, he'll be very useful.

Valbuena is a place holder who will be pushed aside for Moran as soon as Colin starts owning AAA (he's not there just yet).

We're tired of the stupidity in our lineup.

Also, George simply sucks with RISP. In fact, he has been terrible at it as a big leaguer. They must demand smarter at bats from him in those spots.

I'd still like to swap George and altuve in the lineup rn. Like you said springer doesn't hit well with risp so he might as well become the runnee in the position while guys like altuve and correa who get alot of hits are behind him.


Do we have any catchers in the farm who look promising or we just hoping gattis doesn't suck at it when he starts.

Absolutely. Springer hit like .367 in the lead off spot when Altuve went down last season. He shortens up his swing quite a bit as a lead off guy.

Also Marisnick was hitting near .300 before he was injured early last season and just couldn't get back in rhythm after the injury having to split time.

I think the DST is more than just a game thread which is what the title was changed to...I think there should be room for artistic license...this is a thread of the DAT for the DAT and by the DAT.

If we ever find a GM that naïve, we need to pony up Wojo and Kratz to get an ace.
