The easy 3: Crap, Drew, Ryan. Garrett Jones too, really.
Zobrist to the Royals. Another temptation avoided. So far so good.
Looks like it might be Prado again.
Which I would be fine with, as long as it didn't prevent Refs from getting a shot.
Prado would be Cashman stupid.
He has an 88 OPS+. Refs could do that within a two weeks.
`
My prediction is that they trade for Samardzija. Off year (maybe) and an impending FA, so they think they can pay less and fix him, the lamentable GM has wanted him for a while, and it fits with his and his manager's wrong-headed view of what wins baseball games.
He has decent numbers against lefties, and could spell multiple players. If it's between Refsnyder playing and him, of course I'd choose Refsnyder.
If they platoon him, Drew still gets a majority of AB.
Factor in the $11m he is owed next year and the chances of Refs playing are about the same as those that he won't be traded.
People can disagree obviously, but I think it would be incredibly dumb.
Diego Moreno is up. I'm assuming he's replacing Nick Goody, whom Girardi refused to pitch. He has a 2.18 ERA in Scranton.

Mets pitcher Jenrry Mejia tests positive for Stanozolol and Boldenone and has been suspended another 162 games, MLB announces. - @AnthonyDiComo
I hadn't looked at OPS+ for a while:
A-Rod 152
Teix 149
Beyond awesome considering how long it’s been since they were forces.
Gardner 130
Pretty close to awesome given his skillset.
McCann 114
Declining some. It’s good, no doubt, but I think if Murphy played every day he would be over 100 and on the ascent, better defensively, and obviously MUCH cheaper.
Ellsbury 105
The injuries are hurting him badly, which is the story of his career. When healthy, he is more fun for me to watch than any player on the team, but that’s not often enough given the contract.
Beltran 100
Whatever.
Headley 97
Whatever
Gregorius 77
He’s getting better even if he is the only young player allowed to do so.
Dante Bichette left his game in Tampa after hitting a homerun. He was replaced by Angelo Gumbs...
Crap is crap. But it doesn't matter because Joey G. doesn't care.
Imagine what some charity could have done with the $5m they set on fire.
Tony Renda left his game in Trenton.
So really, I don't mind if they are throwing this game. I do mind that he is on the roster since opening day when everyone with a working brain knew he sucked.
He is evidence of what is wrong with how they operate. Younger, better, often cheaper players aren't getting a shot because Girardi loves his guys and Cashman won't confront him about it.
From all we know Cashman likes him too. The roster spots become more valuable now; no more bullshit time to go
But maybe all the runs will give them a reprieve
That should be for all we know
Marchand says the plan was to start Mitchell before he got hurt.
It's impressive that Didi is no longer pulling everything
Yeah I knew that about Mitchell it's just that Crap shouldn't be on the roster
LMAO, I bet CC wishes he had this run support.
This is one of those you can't predict baseball, games
Can they now sell high on some of the spare parts that are doing well tonight ?
Doningo Acevedo left his latest start after 56 pitches, though he was dominating.
Domingo, that is.
This game is like that Bugs Bunny cartoon where there's an endless assembly line of hitters rounding the bases.
The Yankees really should DL Ellsbury.
Mike. I'm at the train station, what are you seeing with regard to Ells?
Not watching the game, just a general observation given his recent struggles.
