I liked the signingSibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Wed Apr 01, 2026 5:46 amWhat was the purpose of signing him, was it just to occasionally fill in at DH and pinch hit?
Since 20223rd in MLB for OBP against lefties (.407), 6th in Average (.312), and 7th in OPS (.924) [min. 400 PA]
IT could be a case of one year too late. I am still hopeful that he is just off to a slow start.
On a good note I was impressed with the work Young put into his body and his game in they offseason and he had a good Spring and has looked like the 2B of the now and the future.
Raley and Donavan have been terrific. Today’s loss puts us back to .500 but it has all been against contenders
We need to win on Wed.
