Sac should have an outfield of Taylor, Peterson, and Mitchell. Release Carson already he’s just filler. When Carter returns he’ll probably play where ever his bat will progress the quickest which is 1B/DH. I don’t think the outfield experiment is working.

Gotta say pretty excited about Devine and De Los Santos. Both could be closers. We got some serious ammo coming this trade deadline with our surplus relivers.

Michael Choice just hit a two-run home run.

I love these, Pop N' Locktapus,

but I think it might be a little better if you added up-to-date season triple slash lines for those players too. Seeing that Cardenas went 1 for 3 with 2 BB is nice, but seeing that he’s hitting .367/.429/.504 is even nicer.
