    So Cam starts way too much.

    And Victor doesn't start enough.

    Right. So why would you have him ride the bench for 3 weeks when sending him down gets you his age 28 season.
    He needs to be part of winning for us in the stretch drive or he needs to be in sugar land until we get another year of club control back, which is only something like 2.5 weeks.

    Cam is too far into his slump and I'm not sure he can get out of it by season's end. Hopefully he hardly starts when Yordan and Jake come back.

    Damn it....just hope bullpen keeps it at a 1 run game. Pena is due up in the 9th so hopefully he can get something going.

    I'd be concerned what it would do for his psyche.

    Beyond that, yeah I'm on board with what you're saying.

    I mean, maybe you keep okert for the 10th. Whatever. When you lose this many chances and have them get the go ahead run in the 6th the way they did it’s just one of those games that’s a tease
    Kimbrell makes sense here.

    If getting sent down at 22 can destroy your psyche you were never going to be great in the first place imo.

    Pretty counter productive for him at this point to be exposed to a whole new coaching scheme/environment… and the service time stuff likely means nothing till after a new CBA goes into effect.

    he is their best everyday OF currently and is getting at bats solely due to that.
