Roster Moves (2019)

[mitlen]

Don't think this call-up did much for Kieboom's confidence. And, after such a great start, too.

It got ugly at the end.

[varoadking]

Thus far, he made out like a bandit in arbitration.

.103/.212/.138/.350

Stealing that $3.25MM...

Come to Nashville and we'll fix that.

[Slateman]

.198/.278/.267 hitter. He should fit in nicely

hmm. that would give us five outfielders.

And virtually all of them interchangeable

Yeah, no difference between Soto, Taylor, Eaton, and Robles.

[Slateman]

Yeah, no difference between Soto, Taylor, Eaton, and Robles.

Soto is hurt.

So Robles, Taylor, Stevenson, and Parra are pretty interchangeable

[imref]

Seems like Parra will replace Noll/Adams for now, he played 1B in 16 and 17.   So the bench would be Sanchez, Parra, Kendrick, and Suzuki with Difo filling in as the starting SS until Trea is back.

[welch]

Why carry Stevenson?

[NatsAllThe Way]

Danny Espinosa is tearing it up in AAA, why don't we make a quick trade for him and slide him into SS?

Carter Kieboom is a better choice

Have you been in Tibet for the last 2 1/2 weeks?

.255/.319/.451 isnt tearing it up

[NatsAllThe Way]

.255/.319/.451 isnt tearing it up

For him it is.  Plus he has a bazooka.

[Squab]

For him it is.  Plus he has a bazooka.

if he can keep his K rate ~20% (16 now) with some power and his defense he's a pretty good utility infielder.

[imref]

Parra deal appears to be done and he'll be in LA tonight.  No corresponding move yet, but figure Stevenson to the IL and someone DFAd

[sixthree175]

venting frustration -- Roark just pitched 6 shutout innings.

Too bad he wasnt willing to put in the work here in DC

[mitlen]

Too bad he wasnt willing to put in the work here in DC

Serious question:     Was that the word on him?

[rileyn]

We don't miss Roark on the mound, but maybe in the clubhouse.  He seemed like a solid dude. 

Regarding Parra, put that MFer in the lineup tonight.  I'm desperately searching for reasons to watch.
