Just saying i think as of now Alcantara is more likely ahead of Shaw as being an OD outfielder (not saying hes getting a spot, just saying between the two), obviously it could change by the offseason but I just dont feel Shaw is inked in as of today.
-
I dont see nor do I think Hoyer sees Shaw inked in as an OD OFer for 2027. I actually think as of now Alcantara would be ahead of Shaw to get an OF spot, since Suzuki return Shaw only been in OF twice. So, I think if a team asks is for Shaw, i believe Hoyer would trade him to get that big SP in return
-
Michael Kopech is still available, why hasn't any team looking at him, is he still recovering?
-
Brown is starting tomorrow, doesn't say if bullpen game or how many pitches he can go. My guess is theyll have Assad follow
-
I would like that too, but is something better available now ?
-
Rea already part of rotation, Brown has been a great asset to the bullpen, and Assad has been beneficial as a SP depth / bullpen arm. So, you keep what been working with those 3 and go shopping for a guy who can hold it down for however long needed as the 5th starter. Can't just hope guys will be returning in 2-3 weeks and just try to stay afloat with who they have until then, they take Brown and Assad out of the role theyre doing now, that means they need to weaken the pen and SP depth they have left and will need to add guys like Hollowell, Thornton, etc type to fill out the pen until the injured returns.

First move for bullpen help/depth
-
W..... 15 straight home, 9 in a row, 19-3 Keep it Rolling
-
Big, great job Shota
-
Fuk. Get through this inning Shota
-
Bing bang boom, 1 run game turned into 8 😅😅😅
-
Not to count chickens before they hatch, but... The next home series is Milwaukee and sweeping that would tie the home streak at 18 🙂
-
Lmao.. Just like that, it a blow out game 😅
-
Conforto !!! He making me a fan 😅
-
No, my 12 year old self is laughing at the video attached about the dry hump 😅 I fully get why Palencia wasn't used in back to back days now
-
Gonna need to either look at the current list of Pitchers unsigned or try and make a trade for a Brown/Rea/Assad type starter that could be available on a team AAA roster or in their bullpen .
-
He pitched Saturday and Monday, he not stretched out enough to go more than 50 pitches, that would take him to about 3 innings, like I said theyll likely piggy back him and Assad and or just be a bullpen game.
-
Lmao... Craig Counsell said Daniel Palencia wasn't going to pitch tonight. He pitched on Tuesday, but he was also dry humped twice on Monday. "We told him off the IL, we’re just going to be safe with this & not a back to back in your first kind of set here.” https://x.com/i/status/2052046298862268819
-
Brown may start, but id expect it to be a bullpen game. Brown having pitched twice this week, might only be able to go 3 innings top, likely not use Assad today and go with him tomorrow too. Theyre likely going to need to make another move tomorrow for a fresh arm
-
Hollowell is back up
