Can our old buddy Ned just trade Kemp to Boston or someplace already?  This whole never know if he is playing or not thing is really messing up the fantasy squad.
 
Ned Colletti is a terrible GM, why he still is employed is beyond me?

Every interview he gives regarding roster situations is befuddling.

Bullpen is poorly built, good having three guys earning "Closer" money, and your actual Closer is the one getting paid the least (arbitration).

No depth at third, too many outfielders and the ones getting paid big money are the ones playing yet the least productive.

Donnie baseball isn't doing anyone any favors either.

Kemp/Ethier in Left, Pederson in Center and Puig in Right. That is an expensive platoon.

Trade Kemp
Trade Ethier
Trade Crawford

Not all three but move 2 of those, eat money, get some infield depth, grab another relief arm. Do something...

Oh yeah, time to move Hanley to third.

I agree. N we should definitely start shopping some of these guys. At least kick the tires, kuz we need BP arms.
 
Well, I meant as the principles. I wouldn't do it straight across. Id rather get a lil more and eat a large portion of the remaining contract...in a package, of course.

The meat of the order had been an utter disappointment lately, and for a majority of the season....
 
7.5 back now.

Offense needs to wake up or they'll be out of it by July...
 
If it makes yall feel any better..were tied for the 2nd wild card. A coin flip and a play-in style. Semi srs.

Play-in game is too stressful man.

Plus probably no Greinke or Kershaw till game 4 with full rest even if we do win 
 
Baseball season is long y'all, and injuries are real and can occur to any team at any time that can change things.

I've been frustrated as heck watching/listening to these past couple of games too. A trade has to go down soon, or Ned has to get the ax.

The clear thing, as mentioned by many already, is one of the OF's have to go. The most expensive OF platoon in history isn't benefitting any one of those guys.

Selfishly, I can't see Kemp in another uniform though... Unless he's traded to my Mariners :smile:

Time to call up Joc. The bullpen is sorry and who knows if they will get it together. But right now you have a hot hitter in ABQ and it sure as hell wouldn't hurt to try him out. SVS, Figgins, Fedex? That's not appropriate for a team of this level.
 
Matty needs to buy HanRam a drink for that RBI hahaha, a better throw and he would've been out.

Nice to see runs and the guys smiling though.
 
HanRam :smokin

Edit: the first-pitch hacks today are coming through...

:lol: @ kemp always posting pics of his new found modeling career and everyone always bashing him.

Neddy needs to wake up and just eat cash trade ethier kemp and or craw 2 outta 3 gotta go.
 
I'm a fan of all three, i'm a card carrying free Joc member and admittedly am a fan of the prospects ((ICU IronmaN... and you too Josh Bell, Andrew Lambo, et al :lol:)

But a trades gotta happen, decongest that OF and let Pederson get his chance
 
Im curious about Joc, too...but as for prospects, im more excited about Seager and Urias. Itll be interesting how the infield situation will be handled in 15/16 with guerrero/arruaburrena/gordon/seager/hanram.......just like joc and the 4 OFers. Im 60-40 hanram gets 5-110ish from us after the season....or dashes for the yanks for 6-150...or maybe the angels(he likes socal from what I see).

Anyways, zack vs ol friend volquez. Should be a W. And we can watch again!

There's lots of reasons to be excited with what's cooking in the minors, Urias and Seager are other pieces. Let's see what others we get this week, and next month when the IFA window opens up :smokin

We finally gave in and bought the mlb.tv subscription on Monday. That paired up with a $5/mo proxy = suck it TWC, #iGotMyDodgers
