Man Cruz hits some bombs.
This still has the feel of a game where they get 3 hits and strike out 14 times but at least they scored.
Nice to see after the gongshow he batted last night lolCruz might be pound for pound the most absurd power hitter in the game, 128 feet high and 472 feet long. Its not like he's built like Judge, Tall, but he's still kind of skinny, no clue how hes able to hit these bombs consistently.
Good. Doesn't matter.This is going well. Getting swept here is going to make the deadline even quieter.
But he isn’t a position of “need” because he’s only a DH… or something like that.I'd be pretty aggressive with Oakland for Rooker. There is no real reason for them to keep him. He's going to get a hefty raise in arb, and they aren't close to competing. Rooker has 3 years of control meaning he'd be here for the first part of a potential window.
Rooker IS the type of guy who moves the offensive needle. He'd instantly be the biggest HR threat and frankly overall one as it were, when you look at what he's done since last year.
I mean…. That’s just simply not going to happen thoughIt would be smart to hold steady this season and spend in the offseason, no prospects lost.
One decent, two not very good games since back from injuryGonzales had absolutely nothing.
My guess is that some of the loud public signaling that they aren't selling him is just posturing, but I also bet they would ask for a hefty price, especially a headliner.I'd be pretty aggressive with Oakland for Rooker.

Yeah, heard on the Fan today that Oakland said they will not trade either Bleday or Rooker. At least that's their "for public consumption" statement.OAK isn't gonna sell
Theres no reason with them being 3+ years away from Vegas when they're not even paying much to their guys
They'll run it back like us
They said he took a step towards 2nd base.Why did they call Taylor out?
I honestly thought it looked like he was trying to avoid stepping on the ball after the 1B dropped it, but I guess a rule is a rule.They said he took a step towards 2nd base.
