But losing a pick for it?

We gained one for Josh. It works itself out. So we didn’t really lose much.

Ha you mean Bryant

 

[volsarelife1]

I can ride with this.

 

[zjcvols]

So what now with Ender/Duvall/Markakis?

Ender gets traded

Forgot about that dude already

Word

 

[GAVol]

Ender gets traded

Might wait until after the Super 2 date for Pache if he hits a little in Gwinnett.

 

[zjcvols]

Doesn’t block Pache or Waters. You get a cleanup guy who will hit you 25 homers at least.

Can trade Ender now as an MLB piece for a third baseman or you now just deepen your bench with 26 players now.

You hurt the Cardinals.

Win-Win-Win

Pache and Waters need time. Now you don’t have to rush him and let them develop. Ozuna is a solid player and mayyyybbbeee that 2017 season is still in there. Dude hits the ball hard. Maybe we unlock that.

So pick washes, but I still don’t know why he wouldn’t try to get a longer deal at 29/30.

Oh well, Let’s ride

Maybe nobody wanted to give him one

 

[zjcvols]

This does make the Markakis signing even dumber though

 

[LotteryPick]

OZZZZZUUUUUUNAAAAAA

Extra bench spot.. LH bench bat

I dont hate him for a bench bat. Just not an every day guy

My guess is he probably didn’t get anything beyond $50M. At that point, maybe you turn those statcast numbers into real production and get something better. He wasn’t going to get $18M AAV on the market.

 

[Kingston Vol]

I cannot wait for DOB or some other dumbass tweet out that Markakis has been taking grounders at third

 

[zjcvols]

Right but there are dozens of those guys without tempting Snit to play him a bunch. We got Matt Joyce in late March and he was fantastic.

 

[zjcvols]

We all know Ender is going to come off the bench, not Markakis

 

[zjcvols]

 

[AV_12]

Markakis can’t hit. Would rather just play Ender and keep Ronald in RF full time

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Ender. Duvall. Wright. Ynoa for Bryant. Why not

 

[LotteryPick]

That BABIP was waaay lower than his career average last season. Expecting a good season out of him

 

[zjcvols]

Lmao Ender is not coming back lol
