    May have already been posted but just saw that Toro is having a very nice season for the Red Sox. 100+ ABs with an OPS over 800

    I mentioned him in the hypothetical trades thread. I think he’d make a good target if nothing else is available. LH bat with some upside and versatility who shouldn’t cost much.

    Every time you post this update I ask myself "what the hell did Heineman do in the offseason?"

    Nice to see Maton on there.

    Yesterday Wilyer Abreu became the first player since Roger Maris in '58 to have a grand slam and inside-the-park HR in the same game.

    I was reading an article about All-Star snubs and happened upon Phil Maton's name. I had no idea the kind of season he was having for the Cardinals this year. Good for him. Hopefully he's at least cracked one smile about it.

    Joey Loperfido crushing it in Toronto (only 2 games, I know), I still think we gave up on the kid too early.
