If this team was serious about competing for titles, I would've sent him down already.

But they're not, so run him out there everyday
Peraza shoulda been up here this entire time while Donaldson been out.


Volpe could very well be a big star, but I also think they don't want to potentially have the idea that Peraza might be better (he's already better defensively). They've invested too much into the belief that Volpe will be the next generation's Jeter.

This is probably another Hughes/Joba situation. But as long as DJ and Gleyber are on the team, Peraza wasn't gonna get much PT

If they were serious about winning, they wouldn’t be on year 5 of not having a left fielder. All skinny Krause had to do was pick up the phone when Bryce Harper was calling. No, he had to instead spend $17 million on JA happ, $8 million on Adam Ottavino, $13 million on Zack Britton, $8 million on CC when he couldn’t get through the 4th inning anymore, whatever he paid Gardner, and gave a $70 million 7 year deal to hicks :scust:. If they were serious about winning, they’d have fired this a$$hole a long time ago or at least not brought him back after he said the process matters more to him than the results do this past winter :scust:. Went into the year with 1 lefty batter on the major league roster.
