He shouldn't be taking ABs from guys like Westburg, Norby, Ortiz, or Stowers.

If you want him on the team in the role for someone like Vavra, OK. But you can just have Vavra for much cheaper.

I think he's a defensive upgrade over Vavra with a bit more positional flexibility (could play SS in a pinch, though that's not depth we need with Gunnar and Urias on the roster). No issue with him being rostered, but wanted a much bigger upgrade as an everyday player. Trea Turner would've been ideal, except the cost.

If we had signed someone like Turner, we would have had to cut about 10 players and played with a 15 man roster to keep payroll down under 60 M.

The cuts would need to come from the Angelos yacht club, not the clubhouse.

On fire lately. 889 OPS in May, driven by a 1077 since the Angels series began on May 15th.

I absolutely hated the deal, but the guy seems like a gamer and has good contact skills which was severely lacking on this team. I'm amazed to say it but if I need a big hit or just a guy to make some contact and have a good AB he's at/near the top of my list.
I'm coming around to 2035's point above about easing in the young kids slowly. I feel Gunnar is starting to rumble. Let's see if he can bust out here soon.

Trade him now while he has some value and get Westburg up here

As I've said before, I'm never going to be in favor of what I know of the process that brought Frazier here but the results have been surprisingly really good so I'll take an L on that, at least to this point.
+1. I expected him to be much worse hitting so I’ll admit I was wrong there after 30% of the season. Still dislike the process.

Why is he still in the lineup most days. FO is so infuriating. Screw whatever you think the timeline for this team being competitive should be. We are right now yet you are doing jack to help the team as much as reasonably possible.
