Murph gets way too much denial for how truly awful he is in the field.  I know he tries hard, and works on it and all that.  I know his bat makes it worth it.  But man, we need someone else in late in games.

Assuming no trades, Difo and Turner are your middle infield for 2019. And I think that’s pretty damn good.

Can only have so many defensive replacements. First base, second base, left field ....

Right now Difo is making me wonder if Daniel Murphy if a left fielder next season.

And, I assume we'll have a regular LF when it matters.

What a freaking awesome save. Attacking the zone, not trying to nibble. I love doolittle.

Wow. Howie is proving to be a good pick. Nice pitching by Doolittle too.

I believe you are correct.  Looks kinda like Shemp in the face, but after I posted I realized he was much heavier than Shemp.

It took me a while to get sold on Doolittle.  I'm sold.   Rizzo's deadline trades have far exceeded expectations.  And anyone nagging that we did nothing needs to be paddled!  :-) !
