sdrawkcab321 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Cargo is going to be a huge X factor for this lineup. This lineup isn’t bad on paper once Lindor comes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Santana looks really comfortable which is very encouraging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruceb Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 Stamets, Moroff, Luplow, Bauers and Perez are not more than AAA players. Lindor coming back doesn't counterbalance that much weakness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, it's still pretty weak (for a contender). Santana, Lindor, Ramirez is obviously a great trio. But what else is there outside of that? I owned CarGo in a dynasty league, there is a reason he isn't in CO anymore. Even in Coors his bat was degrading reeeeeal fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re gonna have to win with pitching and timely hitting. It’s why I was upset we didn’t upgrade the BP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based upon the first 10 days of the season, not bringing Andrew Miller back looks like a wise move. I'm still trying to wrap my head around how John Edwards was a better option than Alex Wilson. Wilson isn't a flame thrower, but he's had an ERA of 3.19 for his 7 year career. They have got to be thinking that Salazar is coming back at some point this season, and is hopefully going to nail down a slot in the bullpen. If he does, I think our chances improve a bit.

Unless they trade Kluber or Bauer mid season (which I don’t see happening), he would be the odd man out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he is mentally tough enough to be counted on. I would make him a long relief pitcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwin and Santana is about a push, but then again over the past several years we have lost: Brantley Donaldson Bruce Gomes Alonzo ...and basically replaced them with AAA caliber players. That's absolutely embarrassing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has picked up where he left off after the 2nd of last year. He was darn good that 2nd half and he looks better. They better make a move at the real deadline to get an OF bat. So they have the whole 2nd half of the season unlike the Donaldson move which kinda flopped but was a great attempt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
