F'n Stoneman.

Boy, even without a DH, we have Joyce.  

 

Can't Cron play LF?  C?  

 

Out hot bat is PH, and gonna be screwed up after two games of this crap. (Unless he hits a mile high bomb)

[Stradling]

Play him at first, Pujols at third.

[Blarg]

I'm sure Cron can stand in left field and be as useful as a traffic cone.

[hen3ry]

So, just as good as Joyce then.

And Joyce returned to earth this past month + after a solid May (.799 OPS), with around a .600 OPS since June 1. 

Time to DFA him, or if anyone wants him to trade him for some gumballs.

[JoJo26]

CJ Cron has actually risen from the depths....and we can't throw him in LF?

 

Oh well....Matt Joyce loves rocky mountain oysters...so maybe he'll go ding dong...

It's painful to see what we're missing:

 

1-5, 3.41 ERA, 1.45 WHIP  in 34.1 IP

The Scioscia sit out curse returns. Oh you had a 4 hit game and performed better than anyone's seen thus far?

Go ahead and ride some pine, son.

Wouldn't surprise me to see this perhaps midway through the game.  If you PH Cron in 6th and he can hit again in 9th.

Do you really think Scioscia should start Cron in LF? 

[Docwaukee]

you know that's not very good for a reliever right?  He's also allow 5 of his 11 inherited base runners to score.  

 

He's got worse peripherals than Salas, Ramos and Alvarez.  

 

He's basically back to being the guy he was prior to last year.  

[Blarg]

Cron has not played one inning in the outfield in the majors or minor leagues. So, no, he doesn't belong out there.

Ok, where do you play him? There is no DH.

[tdawg87]

Oh god I just had a panic attack thinking about Cron in left field.

Where do you play him in an NL park?

Yep just put him in the largest outfield in baseball regardless of his total lack of mobility

[Blarg]

Just stay out of my way, CJ and let me handle left field as well.

That's why I said watching him is painful

Who knows?  Cron could be gazelle like in the Outfield...

Before or after encountering lions?

Camping is a legitimate tactic
