Reds @ Angels 6-25-19

Agree. There's a place for him. Just wouldn't count on him as an everyday guy. Kind of a poor man's Zobrist.

Or a walkless Zobrist with no power

at least peraza gets on base so he has the chance of getting picked off. does ervin ever do anything?

also, not defending peraza. just trying to be (non) funny for the most part.

I just don’t think Peraza has a future with the Reds and Ervin might. Neither one does much but I’ve seen all I want out of Peraza and Bell thinks he has to play him all the time for some reason. Can’t play him if he’s in Louisville.

he did hit 14 home runs last year. (now stop making me defend him! lol)

If only Iglesias had quick hands

[Tom Servo]

wait, what was the exact deal you were proposing for realmuto? peraza + who? senzel?

I think it was something like India + Peraza + Santillan, I basically figured the Marlins might want a pre-arb guy with upside like Peraza who they could play at SS considering they were (and still are) sending a middling journeyman like Miguel Rojas out there.

neither likely have a future with the reds. but if one of them does, i would put my money on peraza as a utility guy for the next couple years.

Reds are gonna have to score some runs in this series. This angels team has some solid offensive producers.

man, because of india and santillan, i was probably one of those idiots saying "hell no" to that trade idea for realmuto.

can i have a mulligan?

I bought the plastic batting helmet version of that one and put some stickers on the back for 29. Used to wear it occasionally while batting in our old neighborhood backyard baseball games.

I had a bunch of those back in the early 80's when I was a kid. (Didn't have the Angels, though.)

I had the Reds, Astros, Braves, Expos, Yankees, Brewers, Royals, and the Columbus Clippers. I also swiped my brother's Pirates and Indians helmets.

is Thom only doing home games now?

Agree but Ervin might have to get a lot of playing time in the OF next year but probably not long term.

if he is, let's tell him the team moved to bermuda.

ooof

[Ironman92]

Well that was a quick bat ...geesh

[JFLegal]

well, that just happened. the effing 8th hitter hit a 3-run homer. 4-1 angels.
