[Stebbins] Angel Martínez exited with left foot inflammation. Martínez is going to get an MRI, Stephen Vogt said. First came up a few games ago and was able to play through it. Aggravated it on a play today.

Okay, that may be the context to his flailing lately.

What a crappy night, good turnout at Progressive though.

Lately? Dude always flails. Just usually hits the ball when he does.

Love the downvotes for pointing out his 4th percentile chase rate and 90th percentile swing rate. He swings at everything, which is the definition of flailing.

Hopefully it’s not plantar fasciitis. That can linger for a long time

Valera and kayfus out of the Columbus lineup it we’re thinking about potential replacements

Nolan Jones is gonna hitchhike up 71.

u/NebsLaw 1d ago

He's not on the 40 man roster. I doubt its him

u/No_Contribution_7635 1d ago

I would say Watson, but we'd be trading one switch hitter that strikes out and hits for power for a lefty that strikes out but hits for power.

u/ProduceVisible8105 1d ago

I would also like to give Watson a shot but it doesn’t seem like they are inclined to do so right now

Kwan will be back after tomorrow’s game so there really won’t need to be a call up unless he is placed on IL or am i missing something???

u/ProduceVisible8105 1d ago

If angel is going on the IL I wouldn’t be surprised if they wanted one of the more interesting guys than Fairchild up for near everyday ABs

u/TheLastYuuzhanVong 1d ago

Na they already said he'd be back for NY.

u/husband-rules 1d ago

yeah that’s what i’m saying so if Angel goes on IL, they have a full roster…. right? but if Angel stays, someone goes back down when Kwan returns…. that’s how i see it

u/TheLastYuuzhanVong 1d ago

It's already in the works and will be completed around 6pm tomorrow.

u/husband-rules 1d ago

what’s in the works?

u/TheLastYuuzhanVong 1d ago

Bringing Stevie back and putting Angel into rehab.

u/husband-rules 1d ago

ok …well then it seems they will have a full roster when they pulled up Fairchild

u/TheLastYuuzhanVong 1d ago

True but if any other option happens they will stick with Petey.

u/JuiceJones_34 1d ago

Bring up Khalil

I’m available. Just saying ⚾️

And none of our OF options in Columbus have acceptable splits against left handed pitching(though Valera have higher better splits this year). We might need to put Fry again on the outfield against leftie starters.

u/thehildabeast Cleveland Buckeyes 1d ago

He’s been hitting like shit for a month so maybe that partially explains it

u/husband-rules 1d ago
