    Maldy being here would be a reason JV would waive his no trade clause. He wouldn't want to pitch to a rookie. JV = more Maldy starts at catcher.

    Diaz just earned 5 days off.

    Still trying trying to figure out a way to force Dusty out before this season goes to waste.

    Playing Diaz at catcher only 1 time through the rotation is criminal.

    There's a power struggle developing unless Dana has just caved.

    Anyone else here that constant popping sound from the crew's mics? Driving me nuts.

    Pena is down 0-2 before he even gets in the batter's box.

    Don't tell JV that. Put Maldy as player to be named later... then name him after JV signs off.

    Or, keep Maldy and play him only in JV starts

    The Fox announcers are such chatter boxes I had to turn off the sound. They talk constantly and not necessarily about the game.

    Can we just trade fake Verlander (Brown) for real Verlander?

    WILD IDEA. How about Diaz takes over catching duties full time?

    Chasing Sliders.

    Sounds like a good name for an 80s cover band.
