    NOOOOOOO

    Ok, so do we move Bregs to SS and Marwin start at 3B and bring up Fisher? Or do we move Bregs to SS, keep Marwin as Utility, and bring up Moran to start at 3B?

    Just for sh*ts and grins. Does anyone have any idea what kind of injuries the Dodgers are dealing with this season?

    Correa
    DK
    Colin McHugh
    Charlie Morton
    McCullers a little

    Come on..

    Well that sucks . Having said that Correa had a pretty mediocre April for him and we did fine so maybe others can step it up . Also we are getting our Starters back so maybe they can pick up the slack for our offense.

    Move Bregman to SS and Marwin to 3rd? Do we have 3B/SS guys in the system to call up?

    Same injury as Trout, who came back in 6 weeks. He'll be back, and longterm this is better news than a hamate injury. Still, massive blow.

    They called Moran up. Needed an extra IFer given the bench would have been Gattis & Jake/Aoki.

    I bet we'll see some of Bregman at SS with Moran at 3B.

    Really sucks.

    But I mentioned this last night.

    I've seen the same exact injury in person before.

    Mayke DK can come back and dominate. McHugh come back and surprise. Morton stays solid. Fiers keeps going like he is and we start allowing less runs to make up for the potential lost offense. I think we are fine for the AL West. Would like to stay on top of the AL though. Decent chance that still happens.
