Jay put up a 3.7 WAR last year, which is pretty goddamned amazing all things considered. Jay's BABIP is down 75 points from last year. He's striking out more, but taking the same number of walks. He's also not running at all, perhaps due to his position in the order, although I have my doubts. Jay's actually been our worst everyday player according to advanced metrics this year. Worse than replacement level. Jay has always been a solid starter, but not much more. It's too bad Oscar isn't a touch more fleet of foot, otherwise we'd have his replacement right now. As is, we just have to suffer through it, because I'll be goddamned if we trade any pitching for CF help, especially with the paper thin nature of the rotation at this point. They should have Yadi take his suspension tomorrow, use the extra roster spot to call up an extra bullpen arm while also sending Marte down and bringing up Siegrist.

They could also liquefy Marte and feed him to pedophiles and I'd be fine with that, too.

Well that Butler kid looked good. Maybe they can package Marte and Boggs for a bucket of batting practice balls.

BTW, what happened earlier? From the box score it looks like Wacha got abused like one of Hootie's unconscious dates.

I would rather not give up any as for a cf, unless it was something stupid like a Matt kemp, which wouldn't happen. I wish Tavares could just play center or Beltran could play cf, either way problem solved |

@BirdsBeat13: As pointed out by @DaRock23, Jay is now 2 for his last 36 (.027) & Kozma is now 2 for his last 28 (.071). No production from the bottom.

Im really liking Matt Carpenter at 2nd base. I wonder what that means for Wong? And is there anyway he could possibly play ss, is his arm strong enough?

You called it, we both agreed the night he pitched on that Royals thread that the mistakes he was getting away with with the shitty ass Royals were going to be crushed by a real MLB team.
