Didnt he hit a home run last night? Biggio has not done much to keep him out of the lineup imo.

Since the middle of last month he's hitting .211 (OBP .268) with a wRC+ of 57. that HR he had is also his only extra base hit of any kind in that span.

Over that same time Biggio is hitting .258 (OBP .311) with a wRC+ of 92. He doesn't have any HRs, but he does have 3 doubles in that time frame.
 
Solid start from White, came as advertised. He’s going to be valuable down the stretch and in the playoffs as a long man. But maybe it’s just me and I know he doesn’t have an out pitch, but to have a guy like this under control for 5 years is huge.

I’m excited for him, and I’m excited we got him. He’ll have more of an opportunity here as well

I guess my feeling is espinal has been better on the year and biggio has not done much to take the job, Id be giving espinal the benefit of the doubt and after hitting a home run last night, would like to see him get rewarded (especially with biggios bad error).

World series. Game 7 vs the Dodgers. Stripling (revenge game) with 4 shutout innings. White (also revenge game) out of the pen with 5 to secure the championship.

That's the one nice thing about everyone they picked up at the deadline: everyone has control.

White for 5 more years

Pop isn't even arb eligible for like 2 more years

Bass has a team option for next season

Merrifield has options for the next 2 years.

they didn't spend huge, but managed to get guys that will contribute this season and beyond so they won't have to look at spending assets to fill those holes heading into next year's deadline.

The team needs runs right now. Biggio's offensive output has been significantly better for several weeks. 1 HR yesterday doesn't change anything.

We don't have the same definition of a solid start. It was a mediocre start. Hope he has an extra gear.
 
Our BP is killing us

Atkins had weeks and months to upgrade the BP so no excuses. Our BP is going to be an issue in the playoffs
