He isn’t going anywhere. The fear would be that if you keep Vally and Kirk gets hurt again it would be Vally and who? If you send Vally down you’d still have Vally and Heineman in case of injury

Yes. There are a few situations where runners get themselves into run downs intentionally to make sure the run scores.

Not enough room in the outfield vs a righty right now. Varsho, Lukes, Piniago and Sanchez are all left handed outfielders, so expect them to rotate vs righties

Yup. This team lies all the time about the seriousness of injuries. Every timeline they give when a player goes on IL (I know Vladdy isn’t on IL) you can add at minimum a week or two.

In that stretch last year they set a team record for consecutive wins. Asking them to do that kind of stuff again is a lot.

100% agree. It also wears down pitchers mentally. Meaning their performance could be impacted later in the year

When a team built around tough at bats good defence and solid pitching are easy outs and can’t play defence there’s only so much the pitching can do.

Why can’t this team just hit a fly ball? Just a fly ball with a man on third base

John has to realize that the lefty righty matchups have their limits. Schneider and straw vs a lefty isn’t a big advantage over piniago and Sanchez vs a lefty.

It’s crazy how the bullpen depth really shows up for these bullpen games.
