It’s getting to that point when we have to wonder if all the hitters are going to eclipse 50 home runs this year. It’s getting absurd. Khris Davis has 10 home runs, and not a single person is impressed.

Below you will find the transcript from today’s chat. It was a weird one.
| 3:41 |
: So what shall we discuss today? There’s always a couple recurring questions. |
| 3:41 |
: I’m very bad at my job…. |
| 3:42 |
: As good a topic to start with as any. The Mets seemingly have no capacity for managing their medical issues |
| 3:42 |
: They have the same problems as every other team, but they always make themselves look so hapless |
| 3:43 |
: With Thames’ impending OF eligibility in Ottoneu, who are some good 1B/Util upside plays to replace him with? I have Reynolds & Carter rostered but they’re part-timers. I put in a bid for Valbueno. Any other suggestions? |
| 3:44 |
: You probably aren’t going to find instant gratification on the wire. You may even be better off leaving him at utility. So many interesting outfielders available. |
We had a good chat in the comments yesterday. What follows is somewhat of a continuation.

AGENDA
Welcome to the struggle and grind. It’s weekend TDG!
AGENDA
A programming note: there will be a Daily Grind this Sunday. I skipped the last two Sundays due to holiday and scheduling conflict.
AGENDA
I tinkered this guy out of my lineup yesterday in favor of Jake Lamb. Whoops.
AGENDA
Tonight’s main slate has 12 games. We’ll focus on the big group. Obvious MVP Eric Thames is not in the correct time slot. You’ll have to find another first baseman today.
AGENDA
Some nights, I’ll go against my gut on pitching matchups just to force myself to pay attention to a certain guy. That was Jason Vargas last night, and it was not the correct play. The rest of my lineup worked out though despite lacking any Rockies or Eric Thameses.
AGENDA
A new week and a new Grind. Let’s get to it.
