Nice play by Vargas

Gore was bad his last outing, so he'll be good tonight.

Good play by Vargas but he’s been bad all around this season.  Get a younger guy some looks

Gore and Paxton are so much more efficient than Pivetta and Gray last night.

he's literally playing at replacement levels (O FWAR). D has dropped from last year and his OBP a bit. I think the deal is Alu moves to 3rd once there's a better option than Downs or Chavis to play 2nd.

Guy has a .275 OBP with zero power

I don't mind the .395 SLG for a backup infielder pressed to play, but the OBP needs to be .300 even at the bottom of the order.

Edit - Chavis should be playing, even w/o the homer. I'm not sure which one should be at 2md, Alu or Chavis, but that's your 2nd and 3rd.

home computer listening to Bob and Franny. Gave up some seats tonight. Would have been my 3rd of 4 in Sat- Friday.

TBH, I didn't enjoy last night's game. Ballpark vibe both ways was not good. And Gray and Pivetta were pluck your eyes out slow
