    Would love to see Mancini have a Carlos Beltran like postseason.

    The lefties have some hard hit balls against him so far this game. He's (Garcia) struggled against lefties in the past albeit he's been better this year.

    The case for Vazquez and Mancini starting is strong.

    Do we still think Jake is an “elite” defensive center fielder?

    He’s not

    If Tucker is a bit banged up, we especially need to kick the tires on Conforto. Give him a chance at a ring, see what he can give us.

    He wasn't going past the 5th anyhow. That is his max this season, Minnesota apparently does not like to let him (or any of their starters, really) go through the lineup the third time.

    He underwent surgery on his knee, but is already doing some practices. He is not on a team, but apparently he is working out under the Boras Corporation's supervision. He's expected to be ready in a few weeks, if the reports are to be believed.

    He's got until the 31st to sign and be postseason eligible, so I wouldn't hold my breath

    He was not hitting well in the minors when he got called up. I'm afraid if he gets sent back he won't BE back.

    Hate it for him.
