Uh-oh. Someone seems a bit upset

Hicks has good OBP and hits LH. Probably should replace Dingler in Toledo.

Let’s move Parker Meadows as part of a return for Paredes. Seems appropriate.

Failed Shortstop

Rays are shopping both Yandy Diaz and old friend, Isaac Paredes. We should be in on both.

Interesting that he has not appeared on any prospect lists or getting much pub. He’s only 25 and a former 1st round pick.

Loved him on Curb Your Enthusiasm

Hope it goes better this time.

Bligh Madris is gonna Wally Pipp him.

Every time I see that there is a new post in this thread, I get a little giddy. And they never disappoint.

I think Kelly is very much being shopped. He’d be an upgrade or welcome addition to most team’s catching situation.

Trading one player, even if it’s Riley Greene, doesn’t ensure anything. Especially without knowing what we’d be getting back. We know we’re a .500 team as currently constructed.

Balk off?

He’s fixed!

Everyone please immediately head to Meijer and stock up on as many canned goods as you can handle.

I like when members of team message boards negotiate deals directly. Who needs front offices, when the fans can handle this?

Cant fail

Assuming we get minor leaguers in return, hypothetically, here’s who could get promoted to replace our rumored traded players: Kelly > Dingler Canha > Villade/Tork Urshela > Jung/Kriedler/Navigato Flaherty > Jobe

Ibanez lays out for that one.

Jobe is ready to pitch in the big leagues right now. He’d be our 3rd best pitcher immediately. The innings he required can happen in the minors or majors—it doesn’t matter. Regardless, he desperately needs them—he’s thrown less than 40 so far. He would also be learning daily from the best pitching coach and pitchers in the organization. The only reasons not to promote him now are if they think he has a fragile psyche and/or service time manipulation. I wouldn’t promote him just so we can win more games this year—I’d promote him to further his development.

He’s an interesting dude. Seems to mostly have solid AB’s. I was a fan of his in the minors so it’s nice to see him achieve some early success. And he’s the same age as a lot of dudes in AA/AAA ball. Looks like he could pop 15 dingers and steal 20-25 bases per season. Great production if he could have stayed at 2B, not as impressive in a corner OF spot. Valuable guy to have on the team to plug in where needed.

I think Dingler will look like Rogers, ultimately. With only 3 SP on the team, we probably don’t have the luxury of carrying 3 catchers on the roster.

I think he and Bryant Packard are opening a diner together. Sucks for hitters—at least failed starters get a crack at the bullpen.

“Patient, you must”

You have a typo—think you meant Jobe to Detroit.
