Had enough! Someone asked for this.
First things first. Pitching status. I hate to start the 2nd half without Yu and Kela. Maybe Derek and Colby will follow shortly.
The motion has a second. Motion passes!I want a trade just to keep Chi Chi and Nick from starting any more games...please keep them off the mound.

Im not in the medical profession, but can someone explain why a lat strain requires at least 60 days off? Seems like a long recovery period for a pulled (or even slightly torn) back muscle for a professional athlete like Colby Lewis.
Do you get it from overuse or not properly stretching?
I wonder who JD is targeting.

Buy low on the Rich Hill or high on Sonny Gray. If we part with Profar, a guy I really like, I hope we get a pitcher that is worth it. Wonder if there is any way, we find a way to extend Desmond over break. Love to happen but a total longshot IMO. How will we shed cash?
Still wondering about JD's interest level in one of Pomeranz, Odorizzi, or Santana. Santana could probably be had without giving much up depending on how much salary were willing to pay. I actually wouldn't mind having him as our #4-#5 for the next couple seasons. He'd add some stability to that aspect of the rotation.
As for shedding salary? I think if they keep Profar, Elvis has about 70% odds of being traded. I pray Prince continues his recent uptick through the rest of the season to somewhat recoupe his value so it's not in the red entirely. If I he can, I'd imagine we do our level best to dump him for anything. Well still have to eat salary, but maybe we can dump 9mil/yr. maybe it's just wishful thinking.
I think Santana is cheaper and you really know what you get and he will eat innings. We just can't keep putting Cheech and Nick out there and get such a beating. I also wonder if we get a SP if JD slips in and gets a relief guy too.
I missed LeClercs las outing but heard he was pretty wild. Has good swing and miss stuff. Probably not quite ready but our options are currently limited
