  1. I just don’t think he can be effective later in the season. Damn that Ernie Clement.

  2. 1st base hasn’t even really been the problem. i mean it’d be nice to have josh back but we have a 3-4 batter black hole every night. RF is in shambles. lane struggling at the plate. C is an 0fer most days. rocchio is not off to the start i hoped for.

    but its early. may/june could turn things around

  3. Josh got cold last year at the wrong time but we literally don’t get to where we get without him.

    Remember when we thought his ankle might have exploded vs Pittsburgh? That *felt* like it could be the end of the season.

    Remember when Vogt was crying over how much he means to the team? To him?

    I get it. He’s heavy. He’s slow. He’s “not a good fielder” (apparently). He swings out of his helmet.

    He’s got 30HR/30 doubles in him if he stays healthy.

    I don’t understand how you couldn’t just keep him till Fry gets back. Trade him at the deadline and you probably get a Slade Cecconi outta it. Trade him *last deadline* and you would’ve got a haul.

    But we traded him at a low. And yeah. I don’t understand it still tbh.

  4. Didn’t he start out like this last season too? I always liked Naylor but I’m not going to kill the organization for this move.

  5. My biggest issue was the guy we got for him is not very good. It just felt like a complete throw away for such a fan favorite and all star level player

  6. I have nothing against him but for a bunch of people who claim to miss him, it doesn’t seem like you all watched him play much. He’s an incredibly streaky player and was throughout his career here. It’s not even remotely surprising he’s started out hot. He was an all star last year and finished the season with pretty average numbers

  7. I was looking at some stats yesterday…Naylor has 4 stolen bases this year so far, Guards whole team has 7. He also seems to be smiling more over there, and of course hitting HRs. I seriously don’t know what we were thinking. Hate this for us!

  8. I don’t buy 5’10” 235 lbs.

    I was close to that… I never was as fat as him.
