Lukes has been ice cold

I agree. Lukes needs to be sitting more in favour of Straw or Davis.

Bassitt and Scherzer's contracts will be off the books, and same with Chad Green's ridiculous salary. That is 47 million dollars freed up right there in the off-season. If Bieber pitches like this the rest of the year and looks like his old self all the way to October, I would definitely offer him 4 years and 100 million.

So the best CF defender in the game is now slugging like Kyle Schwarber

14 HRs in 40 games for MVP Varsho

I agree. Do not want to see Bassitt or Berrios at all.

Nice to see Varsho making an impact in a close game. Not in a blow out, or against a garbage team like Colorado.

When Vlad returns, I say we move Barger down the order and run out the following lineup:

Springer
Bo
Vlad
MVP Varsho
Captain Kirk
Barger/France
Lukes/Davis
Clement
Gimenez

Bieber looking like his Cleveland days. Great command on all of his pitches. What a difference watching this guy pitch, compared to a guy like Berrios who melts down with two strikes.

Loperfido will be coming back when roster expands correct?

That move doesn't make sense assuming he can come by Monday or Tuesday. I would rather be able to play Vlad in Days 7-10 or days 8-10 (assuming he is able) and having a short bench in days 4-7, rather than having him IL'd so we could have a full lineup between days 4-7 and Joey Loperfido instead of Vlad for days 8-10.

Yes, he may take ABs from Lukes or Clement vs RHPs
