WTF? I thought Whit was too hobbled to play the outfield. Not a good look for Moore.

I never understood the Owings signing. Lopez was ready LAST year. I guess Dozier has been a surprise, but it's not a surprise that Owings sucks.

Hobbled Whit > Unhobbled Soler

Tonight’s lineup:

Merrifield - 9
Lopez - 4
Mondesi - 6
Gordon - 7
Dozier - 5
Soler - DH
O’Hearn - 3
Maldonado - 2
Hamilton - 8

That’s fun.

Man if you put Salvy back in there and get Khalil Lee in CF next year, you might have yourself a nice little lineup.

Big question is what you do about LF. If Gordon finishes the year at this pace, he’d have the best year of his career:

.296/.381/.542
31 HR, 44 2B
99 R/122 RBI
83 K (12.5%)
6.7 bWAR (career-high)
6.7 fWAR (career-high)
147 OPS+ (47 percent above average, career high)
143 wRC+

I mean, if he wants to come back, you have to try at that point, don’t you?

Owings might singlehandedly win us a World Series in 5 years when the 1st overall pick from 2020 pitches the Royals a World Series shutout.

Ned would get the red woman to bring him back

If the price is right, hell yeah

Trying to think of the last 35 year old to make bank on a new deal :shrug:

I don’t think it would be huge and would imagine KC would actually get a discount this time.

I got giddy about Gordon and forgot to mention Khalil Lee. I wouldn’t want to see them rush him. He’s having a good season for his age at AA, but not so good you want to push him to MLB to start the year.

Some seasoning at Omaha will do him well.

That price would be $23 Mil.
