With that mountain of flesh he carries around my guess is that he's always hot.
You painted a word picture that made me thankful for the three bottles of nausea medication I have.

Reynolds brings him in with a ball to the fence in dead center that Heywood ended up catching.....that man is everywhere.



That's what I call a sac fly now

I see that Tsutsugo, Newman, and VanMeter are all playing in Indy tonight.



What I foresee happening:

Chang, Castillo, and Park will all be sent back to AAA. Also wondering about Marcano, that Covid was a really bad break at a bad time.



With the trade deadline way until August 2nd, that's a lot of time having to see those guys in addition to Vogelbach over the young guys.



There's no real trade value in any of them. There's no future for any of them here either.



I'm all for DFA, cutting bait with the lot of them.

What I’m watching for, and anxious to see, is the energy and excitement the new guys bring to the team, and how that influences and, hopefully, elevates guys like Hayes and Reynolds. These kids are coming, and the guys who’ve been here need to be ready to pick it up or expect to be replaced.

good point, especially in Reynolds case. They have control over him for 3 more years, will be interesting how this goes.

I guess that's why he is catching tonight.
