    Julks and Myers should be platoon and let them fight it out. I guarantee most any team would take Myers over Julks in a trade scenario, just because of potential. Neither are critical to our success.

    No reason this should not be a sweep.

    Maybe get a good look at potential trade targets away from Coors?

    Meyers and Julks have Grand Canyon level differences in value.

    Meyers would bring back multiple prospects.

    Julks would be the 2nd throw in guy in a deal for an average rental.

    I often lie in bed at night fantasising about Meyers’s ceiling.

    Not to mention that the value of defense in CF vs LF

    Is equivalent to defense at 2 AM in in the slums of Detroit vs a donut shop at 10 AM in uptown Manhattan.

    It's just one thing after another this season.

    Hope for the best.

    I guess this is the definitive answer to my suggestion about trading Pena.

    Why didn’t Dusty move Chas to 2nd?

    Probably the oblique again? Can’t think of much else that would get hurt by swinging a bat. Although trout broke a hand bone just by swinging a bat last night… gotta respect the risks of this silly game.

    So much for that. Rangers with 7 unanswered runs.
