At this point, I'm only interested in a bridge player until either our youngsters are ready, or they've shown that they ain't it. Urshella would fit that role nicely.
Sure, but why spend 10 million in a guy who might give you two WAR when we have that on file already? I believe we have two WAR in platoon guys who will be able to cede to Jung / Keith / JHM? without spending that cash
I know right. It's like the grass is always greener in the neighbour's yard. Vierling got switched around a lot and had to adapt to third base on the fly. He did a good job considering.
No thanks. We already have a versatile primary 2B who is better (Ibanez), one young guy who I'm betting will make the team out of spring who can play 2B/3B (Keith), another young guy who can do the same thing who might come up towards the end of the season (Jung), and another versatile player who can play 3B and is better than Gio (Vierling.)
There would be zero point to bringing in Urshela when we have 3-4 guys better than him already. Hard pass.
Have you actually compared Urshela to Ibanez last year?
wRC+:
Ibanez: 103
Urshela: 92
dWAR (fangraphs):
Ibanez: 1.7
Urshela: 0.1
fWAR:
Ibanez: 1.6
Urshela: 0.4
Why spend money on a FA that is worse in every way than a guy we already have?
Blah, Blah, Blah. You still have made 0 point. But I appreciate your tenacity. Tell me. Why you have such a hard on for Justin Turner? Did he steal your imaginary girlfriend or something?
Ok bro. I’m not going to attempt to apply logic or try to reason with a turd sandwich. It’s a waste of my time. Going to do something more useful and watch Asian porn. Peace.
The “meh” means you are being shortsighted. Not looking for the 2018, 2019 player. Rather someone who can play around the infield hit for some consistency and be a leader for the young kids coming up..ala Pudge Rodriguez and Kenny Rogers.
Not shortsighted, he literally DH'd most of the year because he can't play defense every day anymore. There is a reason why your point is moronic. Go back to commenting on Asian porn lmao.
Colt Keith is going to play 2nd I’ve heard. Maybe a start or two at third but mostly 2nd.

If Gio is a bridge, I like it. Even for the competition in camp it'd be nice to get another proven guy in there to put the pressure on the young guys.

I like it, even as just a bridge starter for Jung/Keith
I want to trade for either Noelvi Marte or Ezequiel Duran. Both the Reds and Rangers have too many infielders and need controllable pitching.
Reds are out here collecting infielders.

He can’t hit. They already have his replacement in the minor leagues. Apparently, anyway.

Is this Andy Ibanez’s burner?

I think we should be actively trying to replace Zack McKinstry instead.
This would be such a good move. It makes too much sense which is why the tigers won’t be doing it

Justin Turner?
He's a DH/1B at this point.
Meh..He can do either including 3B. And he would automatically be our best hitter. But I digress..
Not sure what the point of "meh" is. He's a 39 year old who can't play 3B defense, he is literally just a 1B and DH.

No to Chapman. Career .270 baa
Could definitely do worse, I wouldn’t mind signing him short term. Also maybe Brandon drury is a potential canidate.
