If anything dump Gordon and sign Whit long term

Why dump gordo when you can trade him for Trout?

Don't you know they had the same war once????

[The Big Train]

I mean this isn't even a discussion, it should happen. We should have never signed Gordon to that deal to begin with

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

Whit didn't even have a war last year, so you cant sign him LT until you're sure he's good, which requires lots of war, pod analysis, and othet useless regurgitations of the common box score.

Jeez it's like you don't even read rany

We should have never drafted a guy with that swing in the 1st round, but he had 2-3 years over the last decade where he was above average at the plate.

Part of what makes the Cardinals so good (and part of why I hate them), and other teams garbage men more years than not, is they don't have guys with horrible swings on the mlb roster.

They fix that crap day 1 and rebuild random joe nobody into a hitting machine. WTF are these guys?

[Powercat Posse]

Gordon's last 100 PA -
31 Strikeouts
30 combined total (25 Total bases + 5 walks)
Yes, he has been getting 1 base every 3 PA.
Yes he has been striking out 1 every 3 PA


Coming into tonight, Whit in July & August -
150 PA
87 Total bases + walks
20 Strikeouts

We will see who gets a statue and who doesn't.

Fsd making fun of his own stupidity is pretty good

[yoga-like_abana]

Just saw that annoying moose antlers guy driving his stupid jeep thing on Main street looking for attention

Keep battling that strawman, mocat, you'll eventually get yhe upper hand. This is good irony:

Drew Buterrible is a problem. He sucks at throwing. He sucks at hitting. I'm giving him slack for hair reasons but good grief man take advantage of this amazing chance to play and try not to suck.

Nobody is going to trade SP for wHit, and he's under team control into 2020, so we aren't trading him.

If we want SP, we could trade Hosmer, Cain, Moose, Duffy

Yep. To come full circle, again, we traded 3 starting pitchers for Volquez. Which you deny, even though it's undeniably true. We could still trade Duffy (1 SP) for multiple SP.

In case you haven't noticed, you need 5 SP on a roster. One is not enough.

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

I mean, how many SP did we trade to get Cueto? 3?

0

Finnegan
Lamb
Reed

All LH SP
