Tromp is out of options, right?

Have a feeling once Murphy comes back, some team is going to put a waiver claim in for Tromp.

He probably deserves to be a full-time MLB roster guy with how well he calls and catches a game, but selfishly I'd like to keep him as insurance.

Yeah, I don't want to lose him, but them's the breaks. Who's our next guy up?

I'd imagine we'd sign an FA or buy a backup from another team (2021 redux) if we get in this situation again and don't have Tromp.

Drake Baldwin is a decent enough hitter in AA right now, but I'm not sure he is a future MLB player.

Riley and Olson are in a mini-slump right now.

I think AA signed Sandy Leon, who is playing in Gwinnett right now, to serve this specific purpose.

Vines did his best to get that Cousins interview over with a quickness... unfortunately we have to suffer through this shite for another half inning because he was too fast.

I don't like these in-game interviews myself, but it's hard not to like Cousins. Seems like a great guy. Nice, humble, but with the edge needed to a really good NFL QB. He plays for the Falcons though, so frick him. But I think he's a nice addition to Atlanta professional sports.

Ravech, Cone and Perez just make all of the interviews very cringe.

I really can't stand the current iteration of ESPN Sunday Night Baseball.

I think Vines earned a third start. Very good command today.
