We need an Andres Gimenez lol

Funny you should say that cause earlier I was thinking something similar and went and looked at his stats and I noticed that he was a former top prospect that really struggled in 2020 and 2021 before breaking out this year being on a 5 WAR pace, just another example that can give us some hope for guys like Tork and to a lesser extent Greene despite their struggles this year.

Rick Manning used to be pretty good, calls it like it is.  Not sure if he is still that way or not.  Listening to him go over Avila transactions might have been gold.

he didn't get too far into it, mostly just rattled off all the trades and then the signings that went nowhere (JUpton, Zimmermann, maybe more). I think he was just starting to talk about draft picks, starting with Tork (and couldn't remember his name—color guy reminded him), when the inning ended.

Heck, one could even ask:

'Who would you rather have at this point - AGimenez and ARosario or FLindor, all at the current contract costs?'

At this point, I think both sides are satisfied with that trade
