No move until the end of the month. Then I would give House a shot at 3rd, release Bell, and rotate Call and Wood in left, dh, etc... along with Tena

It seems simple enough to me.  Thank them both for the 2019 WS and their contributions to the organization.  Put them in the Ring of Fame, but Good Lord please get rid of them so we can move forward with a new approach.

Gonna get the same approach but with cheaper GM and manager.

The problem is ownership.

IL stint for Bell, Wood to DH.  Call plays LF.  Pick any filler for the bench.

Josh Bell looks so uncomfortable right now, can only imagine the damage Darnell is doing to him

eh, he had some decent contact today. The ball off the wall in right field foul territory was a smash (foul) and he had a double, but he's 1 hit in 12 PAs with 4Ks & 1 BB since he came off his last injury / benching. I'd say he looks lame. Is that enough to go on the IL?

Past 3 weeks he's been especially awful. 50 PAs, 6 hits, 2HR, 2 BBs, 15 Ks.  OF the 31 times he's made contact in that stretch excluding today, 14 have been hit hard but only 2 have been barreled (his homers).

This organization has lost all semblance of legitimacy...in every aspect...

To say they are putrid would be high praise...

We need Boz to write an article saying it's time for a change.

This. It’s not complicated. House isn’t ready and Tena is not a proven commodity at this point. Lile is not primed for prime time yet. Stop fantasizing and throwing names out.

I strongly believe that it’s too early to resign wood to dh for the rest of his career. We need to get rid of bell. That opens up the door for wood, crews, Lile, and call to rotate between OF and DH.

I really think wood needs to be told at the end of this season to start practicing with a 1B mitt for next year. He’d be a massive target for infielders to throw too, if he has to dive for a ball, he’d cover the gap between him and the 2B with a step and a dive, and he’s got the athleticism.

Davey has no business being a manager.
