They won't get rid of him until the Aug 2 deadline, if then, because they're paying his high salary. Hopefully, they'll find a team willing to take him for a bunch of nothing providing we eat the salary.Carl J.

In his mind, he knows better than we mere mortals, and dammit he will show us! The same logic applies to Donaldson, who is greatly underperforming offensive expectations. Man up Cashman, acknowledge your mistakes by fixing them. Then crawl into Steingrubber’s gilded office and explain why you wasted his money. <br />BTR999https://www.blogger.com/profile/06138306675136444386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-52697174346045442412022-07-01T09:51:53.844-04:002022-07-01T09:51:53.844-04:00As for the Pirates...Bryan Reynolds is available.....As for the Pirates...Bryan Reynolds is available...Gallo and Miggy for him...ranger_lphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266113266381454434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-67991472924739952862022-07-01T09:24:52.950-04:002022-07-01T09:24:52.950-04:00Do we need to start an online petition to get Flor...Do we need to start an online petition to get Florial or Andujar playing time?

His numbers are nearly the worst in all of baseball -- as in no other team puts someone out there that bad day after day. Despite all his twitching and scratching, he seems like a decent sort. Sad for him, but he's just gotta go. Much as Hicks gets my blood boiling, there's no reasonable explanation for playing Gallo over Hicks. Strange situation where the Yankees can't seem to figure out how to DFA someone who cannot hit.Parson Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09312179928176617912noreply@blogger.com
