Funny thing is the replacement players are winning the games for us. Horwitz, Schneider, clement... would Chapman really make a difference offensively?

This is Schneider, Horwitz and Clement's team now.

Just want Bichette and his Bat back. Chapman should take all the time he wants. He would not make a difference offensively. Defensively of course Chapman makes a difference.

No. Not with RISP anyway.

But he's still the only guy who can field that position adequately, we do (regrettably) want him back.

Damn, great play. They're literally playing through a thunderstorm right now in this game.

They lost yesterday's game largely because they couldn't field groundballs.

All this talk about defense not sure if Toronto blue jays or Toronto Raptors.

We're selling low on Vlad in this scenario so some other team/hitting coach can fix him and make him a superstar? I don't like that plan.

Schneider, Horwitz, and Clement all had quietly very good seasons in Buffalo. They've all earned serious looks in the spring.

Schneider is a near lock to take Kiermaier's OF spot next year (with Varsho moving to CF full time). I don't see a spot for Horwitz, aside from Belt's job as platoon DH. I don't know if Clement can play a passable 2B or 3B, but he may take Espinal's job next season.

Martinez at 3rd. Vlad on a **** diet.

Is Schneider good enough defensively to play 2B full-time for them? Early returns have not been good there though.
