I like it, even though I’m not a believer of Singleton….But I wasn’t of Dubon last year

For right now though, his 107 wRC+ looks like Jimmie Foxx compared to what Abreu was doing.

Low K numbers on Sears. Seems to be a pitch to contact type of guy. Hopefully we can make that lots of hard contact. It would be nice to see Diaz and Altuve get hot again like they were when the season started now that Bregman is going.

For right now though, his 107 wRC+ looks like Jimmie Foxx compared to what Abreu was doing. I was thinking the same thing. Singleton isn't going to be any type of all-star or long-term answer at 1B. But he looks like he might be a respectable fit there for a year or two while we work on developing a legit prospect (or find a reasonable free agent that isn't 35 years old). And after the lack of production we've had there since the end of 2021, that feels like a lot.

Pete Alonso is at the top and will probably get 4-5 years. Christian Walker is having a great year. Hoskins is having a good year and so he'll probably opt out and be a free agent again. Wilmer Flores will probably decline his player option and be available. Definitely some options.

Still waiting for Yordan to remember who he is.

Altuve .154 average in his last 7 games, just a .645 OPS in his last 15 games.

Are you freaking kidding me right now.
Exactly what this franchise needs, the first guy in years ejected for illegal substances.

If they check these pitchers like they’re at the airport, then why be if it take 3 innings?

All weird. Glad to see Bregman back.

This team couldn’t even advance Bregman one base after a leadoff double.

With the way the rest of the offense is going, we are going to need another Breggy bomb.

If Blanco was using some substance, he wasn't getting any help from it
