Lifelong Yankee fans - Do any of you actually want Joey Gallo on this team?

Lifelong Rangers fan. New York isn’t a good place for him, and it’s very obvious. I look forward to him signing back with the Rangers in the offseason.

As an Astros fan, I really hope your team dumps 150 million or more on that sack of shite.

He definitely seems to fit in well with those guidos up there

The most amazing thing about Gallo is he hit 100 career home runs before he hit 100 career singles. How is that even possible

Yankees will probably dump him at the deadline if he doesn't start hitting. At least his defense improved from last year with the team.

Having Hicks, Gallo, Trevino/Higgy, and Gonzalez in the line up together is bad baseball

As a Mariners fan, I concur, unless the Asstros or Angels are stupid enough to acquire that garbage. I’d prefer him helping them lose instead.

I mean hell, being a Rangers fan I can’t talk too much shite, but I can definitely talk shite to a Mariners fan. Maybe the worst franchise in MLB history.

When every swing is an attempt to hit a ball to the moon... you get Gallo.

We are. The only franchise to have never appeared in a World Series. That’s why I want AL West teams to handicap themselves by signing garbage like Gallo. It’s our best shot!

Rather have him on Asstros or Angels over Rangers though.

In all seriousness, the Mariners have seriously impressed me last season, and the start of this year. Y’all have a great manager.

It must drive every hitting coach crazy watching Gallo trying to hit every ball 600 feet.

We have upgraded in ownership, GM, and Manager. It’s about time we stopped trying to retool the 2001 team with vets or garbage Cano deals so we can rebuild from scratch. This is the most fun Mariners team since then. Finally homegrown potential star position players like Julio Rodriguez.

Sadly I still think the M’s continue the longest playoff drought in American pro sports. Angels are legit this year and the Trash Can Bangers aren’t slipping down anytime soon. Plus your Rangers / Brinks Truck are formidable.

I really can’t imagine this pitching holds up. We have like a top 3 team ERA since the 2-9 start.

Still are losing games because Semien has a 30 OPS+, no home runs and has made several errors.

Seager also is having his worst year at the plate, but even that has been more than serviceable in this lineup. He is surrounded by a bunch of scrubs.

The offense in general is hilarious to watch. We clearly signed one guy that went OFF with the juiced ball for $200 mil and now he can’t drive one over the wall. I genuinely feel bad for the dude. He looks totally lost. At some point you have to bench him. He has straight up lost us games.

ETA: Notable Semien stats

WAR: -0.1
PA’s: 115
HR: 0
BA: .165
OBP: .228
SLG: .217 (How?)
OPS: .446
OPS+: 36 (LMAO!)
