When is enough for Austin Barnes?!?!

[realmofotalk]

He can't hit, can't throw, can't frame, is barely better than Passed Ball Grandal at blocking balls, grounds out to the pitcher all the time...when he isn't called out looking at a pitch down the middle. What the fuck is Will Smiff still doing in AAA instead of this asshole?

[Kingdom]

Maybe there's a big James McCann trade in your future. Then you'll be blessed with James McCann autographed cards where he includes a bible verse, yay James McCann!

But, but, but... he is an athlete.

It happened.

Dodgers Recall Will Smith, Option Austin Barnes To Triple-A Oklahoma City

[realmofotalk]

Well, fuck. Barnes is back. Gonna be another long year if Will Smiff forgets how to hit and/or the pitchers continue to hate throwing to him, and Keibert Ruiz doesn't develop.

I need to go to more OKC games while I'm still here. Maybe in 2020 since I won't be going anywhere until hopefully in September when I go to Pittsburgh and watch the Braves play. My dad lives up that way.

[realmofotalk]

The OKC team will be fun to watch once again when Smith, Dustin May, Gavin Lux, and Tony Gonsolin all get sent back down after they inevitably get off to disappointing starts with the Dodgers in 2020.

[realmofotalk]

That is, if they aren't sent packing in a panic trade this winter after the Dodgers fail to sign Cole or Rendon.

[realmofotalk]

So, the Astros are reportedly interested in Barnes. Well, his hitting will improve knowing what pitch is coming.
